Software Solutions...ALL-LLC staff have worked with several partners in the planning, design, development, and deployment of several RBDMS related products. As the main purpose of this are of our site is to support RBDMS users, information related to RBDMS is the prime topic of discussion. We have provided a basic list of RBDMS-related products for review (below): Oil
& Gas Data Entry System
Oil & Gas Data Entry SystemAs an aid to the Arkansas Oil & Gas Commission, ALL has developed a tightly-integrated data entry system to supplement is custom deployment of a Risk Based Data Management System (RBDMS). The current Data Entry System (DES) allows AOGC staff to enter data from Intents to Drill, Completion Reports, and Plugging Reports into a format that is consistent with existing paper forms. Following this enhanced data entry process, entered data is passed into a quality analysis processing tool that is part of the DES program. Data failing the QA process is tagged for review while data passing the QA review is moved to a data flow manager for integration into the RBDMS data repository. Finally, because the DES is a stand-alone program, it can be easily integrated with other oil & gas databases.
Web-Enabled Geographic Information SystemTo meet increasing demands for web access to live maps accessible from the Internet, ALL has created a web mapping solution. A sample of the WebGIS solution is accessible from the Montana Board of Oil & Gas Conservation's web site. The solution utilizes an ActiveX control from Sylvan Ascent (Taos, New Mexico). The WebGIS solution allows integration with various well tracking data systems and as is evident from the Montana site, a variety of GIS coverages can be integrated.
RBDMS Internet Data Access Using Java (RBDMS.Java)ALL-LLC staff developed the first and only Java interface for RBDMS using JDesignerPro by Bulletproof. The interface is currently being tested by the Montana Board of Oil & Gas Conservation (MBOGC). The board maintains a good deal of information about the RBDMS.Java program and how it works. Visit the MBOGC's web site for more information. The RBDMS.Java interface is schedule for full deployment in late 1999.
Area of Review Variance Questionnaire (AorVarQ) ProgramTo address AOR Variance issues, a custom program was developed in Visual Basic 5.0 to assist in evaluating AOR Variances in the state of Kansas. The program utilizes logic and methodologies developed by the Ground Water Protection Council's AOR Variance Workgroup. The workgroup included representatives of state and federal agencies, industry, as well as other representation. The project was funded by the Department of Energy's National Petroleum Technology Office (NPTO) in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Zone of Endangering Influence (ZOEI) ProgramThe Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) had a need to evaluate injection well projects using multiple "What If" scenarios. To address this need, the project team modified CH2M HILL's ZOEI program to fit the needs of the KCC. The program was written in Visual Basic 5.0 and distributed to the KCC for use in evaluating Class II UIC permits. The program utilizes the modified Theis equation published by the US EPA in 40 CFR Part 146.6. The ZOEI database tables are part of the RBDMS data model.
RBDMS ADVANCED USER QUERY UTILITYALL staff recently completed development of a new tool that can be used as part of an RBDMS installation. This new utility stores custom queries developed within RBDMS. Users may store query information on a database server so that queries are not lost when updates to RBDMS are installed. This utility adds the ability to provide detailed descriptions of custom queries, editing of queries developed by other users, or launching a custom query report that also prints the SQL Statement used for each query.
RBDMS Formation Tops Entry/Inquiry Maintenance ToolALL staff recently completed development of a new tool that can be used as part of an RBDMS installation. This new tool, an improvement to an existing RBDMS component, enables users to better meet the demands of handling descriptive geological information from a particular well. The new Formation Tops Data Entry & Inquiry tool allows users to toggle between form and datasheet view. The geologic formation tops module also facilitates storing information on logs used to determine tops as well as general notes regarding each formation. This component also provides users with the ability to interface with the RBDMS Stratigraphy module by allowing users to automatically write a standard set of formations as part of the data entry process. Once shell records are written, formation top details can be entered (e.g., measured depth, TVD, etc.). Through its relationship with other RBDMS components, actual depths referenced from mean sea level (MSL) or the national geodetic vertical datum (NGVD) can be calculated automatically and used for analysis and mapping.
Database and Program Glossary Maintenance ToolALL staff recently completed development of a new tool that can be used as part of an RBDMS installation or as a stand-alone program. This new utility enables users to store information on abbreviations, names, and descriptions of terms used throughout RBDMS, in a regulatory program, or that are technically based. The utility includes a report that can be filtered by user ID, primary or secondary group, or by keywords in the name or definition field. |
