Alaska
Internet Based Oil and Gas Data Access System
Alaska
Oil and Gas Conservation Commission made public oil and gas data,
well files available online through ALL Consulting's dotNet application.
Read about it at Petroleum
News or experience it at AOGCC's
website.
The project was provided for the state of Alaska's Oil and Gas Conservation
Commission (AOGCC). AOGCC manages the State of Alaska's oil and
gas resources to track and produce oil and gas data for the state
while considering environmental factors and protecting the environment
for future project considerations of the land.
The
AOGCC uses an internal application developed by ALL to manage
data and information maintained by the commission. The program
accounts for well tracking, compliance, well completion details,
production accounting, as well as, other well statistics and well
diagrams through a GIS navigation front-end. While this application
is used by the AOGCC internally, the data has value to the public
sector to stream-line evaluations of project areas, track production,
view commission orders and access other public information without
engaging commission personnel.
The
new system allows public access to the data through a dotNet application
delivered through the Internet using data from the internal data
management system. This application houses the functionally and
features of several separate systems into one application that
requires no downloads from the server, thus making access to the
system browser independent and ISP independent. This system has
been optimized to allow access from dial-up users to experience
a rapid access, as well as, serving those users that are connected
via a broadband connection. Highlights of the Internet application
include:
1.
Detailed well information including name, API number, permit
to drill number, location, status, depth, etc.
2. GIS navigation to select a well or group of wells to receive
data on surface locations, bottom hole locations, well tracks,
pipeline, etc.
3. Production data for individual wells, pools or by operator
4. Coal Bed Natural Gas well data.
5. Underground Injection Control data for individual wells.
6. Lease information for leases affected by individual wells.
7. Statistics on well permitting and well completions
8. Commission Orders
9. Other reference data including lists of operating companies,
geologic markers, fields and pools.
In
addition to these functions, the system works as a management
information system that allows the public to access data through
custom queries and reports by downloading the data either by printing
or saving the file. The downloaded file can be saved in either
text or in MS Excel format.
