Ongoing R&D work
Research and development work on the Atlas is progressing with the development of a newsfeed feature, a general and technical oil industry newsfeed keeping the user completely up to date on a daily basis about developments in the industry in which the location of GPS-specific news items (for instance, new discovery wells, reported test results, acreage opportunities and licence specific news etc.) are immediately located on the interface map of the Atlas. This important new feature can be followed on Twitter. R&D work is also proceeding, jointly with ESRI, on developing a new 'auto cross section function' allowing outline cross sections at top reservoir level to be generated at operator-selected orientation. Another ongoing R&D project is the development of a variety of artificial intelligence, where the Atlas database is subjected to ‘reliability tests’ built from statistical analyses of the data on other fields within the database that are similar in type, a series of characteristics being used to assess and rank ‘similarity’.
