Abstract

Is strategic Data Stuck in My Pipeline?
Track: Pipeline
Author(s): Michael Harris

Significant information is literally embedded (or "stuck") in the pipeline systems we install. This includes details not only on "where" something is located but more importantly rich attributes of "what" it is. Just as freeing a stuck pig will unblock a line and return it to production and profitability, liberating stuck or previously un-captured information provides for enhanced surveillance, better decision making, and improved operations.

This presentation will provide an overview of the company's decisions and vision for pursing a spatially enabled pipeline management system and the current status. Information is also provided on the methods and tools being implemented, and a summary of the efforts and obstacles to date in pursing this goal.

If you are considering, or are in the process of implementing a pipeline data solution this presentation will discuss issues critical to your success.
