Summary of talk:

The types and amounts of data generated from offshore oil and gas activities from a life-cycle perspective are enormous – both for legacy data and for the growing volumes of new data with higher accuracy and density. In addition, we see a huge growth in multimedia content from drones and ROV inspections. How to combinedly manage such a large amount data, and at the same time maximizing its value, has been a big challenge for the industry over many decades. With a GIS based tool specialized to easily digest all types of geodata – physical and digital – a big step can be made in digital transformation.
