4 Norwegian Petroleum Directorate - NPD Reporting to the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy (MPE) Advisory body Exercise management authority 200+ employees NPD will contribute towards creating the greatest possible value for society from oil and gas activities through prudent resource management based on safety, emergency preparedness and safeguarding of the external environment. 4

5 The Norwegian National Data Repository (NDR) - Diskos NPD and major oil companies set up the Norwegian NDR Diskos in 1995 outsourced solution digital store of field, pre-stack & post-stack seismic data, well data and monthly production data available online 24/7 Seismic Well Production Trade 5

10 Diskos Tender Diskos RFP & Contract 10

11 Focus areas Functional requirements meet the needs of the end users products and services in line with these Open data model Documented and extensible Competition A good choice of service providers Bids on individual data modules i.e. well, seismic, production, trade Service level agreements Not all of the data needs to be accessible at the «touch of a button», i.e. field data but how long should it take and at what cost? Business model Pricing that leads to an optimal solution for management of G&G data Open Standards SEG, Energistics, ISO 11

12 Functional Requirements Requirements are not about «Requirements» Not a sofware product The focus must be on the business process There is an important difference between building a piece of software and solving a business problem The former does not necessariy accomplish the latter! When the requirements have been described, they must then be successfully communicated to the developers 12

13 Some of our experiences The total process: You need plenty of time What are the constraints? When does your present contract expire? Decision process Domain experts are essential in specifying the requiremnts But all to easy for end users to think of «how we do things today» and not «how should I be able to do this in a more perfect world»? i.e. understanding the business process As a consortium with many stakeholders Diskos had a particular challenge in getting the right people into the process and ensuring that they had time to work on the problem Some requirements were not always clearly defined or were «implicit» in our RFP/Tender This led to the need for clarifications and «Change Orders» Clarifying current business «workarounds» or poor business processes How do you fix these and when? 13

14 A couple of examples Download post-stack data (seismic) This functionality must enable the Company Data Manager and the Geoscientist of member companies to select post-stack data for download by: clipping the data geographically based on a polygon delimit the data in time inline/cross line or CDP range decimate data in time inline/cross line or CDP increments for 2D lines decimate horizontally and vertically clipping and scaling (amplitude) must be available selection of transport medium must be possible. The alternatives should first be between Media or FTP, and if Media is selected between tape or disk. the download format is SEG-Y. 14

15 A couple of examples Completeness control (well data) This functionality must be able to track the completeness of a dataset, e.g. What the license operator plans to acquire What was actually acquired What was reported in accordance with NPD reporting requirements for digital well data (ref. NPD Resource Management Regulations, section 24, and further detail in Blue Book). 15

16 The contract Your contract can always be better! We chose to adopt the standard contract: Norwegian Government standard Terms and Conditions for IT Procurement SSA-D Well documented contract based on experience with procurement of large IT systems in Norway Lot of guideance in the contract Well defined Customer Acceptance Test criteria Approval period Delivery date Error handling Classification of undesireable incidents A Critical All or material parts of the operational services are unavailable B Serious Certain critical functions do not work, or work with response times that are material inferior to the agreed C Less serious Non critical functions do not work, longer response times than agreed Gives power to the customer 16

17 Norwegian Government Standard Contract Contract standard The contract is based on the Norwegian Government standard Terms and Conditions for IT Procurement SSA-D "Operational Services Agreement. Agreement for the purchase of operational services relating to hardware, infrastructure and software." Duration Contract period of seven (7) years. This includes one (1) year of transition and six (6) years of operation. Option for three (3) additional years. Operational Service Agreement Appendix structure: 1. Customer requirement specification 2. Contractor solution specification 3. Customer s technical platform 4. Project and progress plan 5. Service level with standardised price reductions 6. Administrative provisions 7. Total price and pricing provisions 8. Changes to the general contractual wording 9. Changes subsequent to the conclusion of the Agreement 17

18 RFP Evaluation Criteria & Weight General mandatory requirements Formal requirements Mandatory Technical Criteria Technical compliance (information, functionality, governance and security) All technical requirements listed in appendix 1 Technical Solution Weight 30 % Robustness of the presented technical solution (15 %) Usability of user interface (10 %) Degree of openness (Data model) (5 %) Commercial Criteria - Weight 70 % Price* (50 %) Contractual Compliance ** (15 %) Level of deviation to the general contractual wording Contractual and operational Risk (5 %) Level of use and dependency of sub-contractors * Total cost for the contract period based on a forecast, and the cost sensitivity of the proposal will be evaluated. **Changes to the contractual wording shall be stated in Appendix 8, so that the wording of the general contractual wording remains unchanged.

26 Challenges Many stakeholders Diskos Members Oil companies Norwegian Petroleum Directorate GTO (Norwegian Oil and Gas) Trade NOSG Associated members CGG Sub contractors Kadme & Evry Kadme Project Management & Decision taking Diskos Core Team (Diskos Management + Consultants) Diskos Reference Groups Diskos Steering Group Diskos Management Committee 26

27 Challenges Requirements process Thorough description of all requirements Dialogue to clarify requirements that were unclear Understandning workflows New functionality to replace workarounds Software development Trango + Whereoil Off the shelf products but need further development to meet Diskos requirements Data migration Migration from current PetroBank solution to PPDM data model Understandting the current data model Successfull mapping Essential information in the hands of a few key people 27

28 Challenges Timeframe New contract planned start 1 January 2015 CGG New Organisation Sub contractors Kadme, Evry Interdependencies Each module is a separate contract All to go live on same date and work together Data transfer Large volumes Tape based Disk based 28

29 Collaboration/Communication How? Face to face meetings Video Telephone Shared communication portal «Basecamp» Information posted in one area Messages Discussions/feedback Shared documents Sub-divided into «project areas» with controlled access Reduce s to a minimum 29

30 Data Migration - Timeline Comprehensive plans 4 modules Seismic, well, production trade Detailed discussions with CGG & Kadme before approval Reference groups Diskos Core Team Alignment with Landmark Transfer methodology Oracle database Metadata Entitlements Bulk data transfer Approx 1 Petabyte From current DR site 30

31 Data transfer Large data volumes approx 1 Petabyte of data Seismic, well and production date Disk and tape storage Seismic data most of the volumes Field, pre-stack nav-seis merge Post-stack data Post-stack data stored in TSM system Copy process from tape Challenges to create an optimal data flow Good dialogue between Landmark (current operator) and CGG/Evry Field and pre-stack data Copy from Isilon disk system faster process Data received by CGG on GPFS system for disk/tape-based storage 31

32 Data migration Data base dump Oracle db Analysis/mapping of db Understanding the data-model Entitlements setting at the most granular level Ensure that all access rights are correct in the new system Ownership rights, user rights, public data «As is» data vs. «New data» «as is data» migrated without change New software functionality allows for improved use of meta-data/attributes etc. Will initiate projects to improve database 32

33 CAT (Customer Acceptance Tests) Testing is essential to guarantee product quality and project success The goal is not only to find failures, but to build trust by measuring quality To identify and expose defects and associated risks, communicate alle know issues to the project team Ensure that all issues are addressed in an appropriate manner prior to implementation Quality in testing is essential! 33

34 Approval period (including parallel loading) Two months - 1 November 31 December 2014 Data base (PetroBank Oracle) snap shot CGG & Kadme systems up and running Fully functional Testing of all operational aspects of the solution Reference groups testing Other end users Operations Landmark contract still in operation until Data loading at LMK (business as usual) Data then shipped to CGG for parallel loading CGG ready for business

35 Training New software New workflows Reference groups Training through CAT tests Remaining member companies Oil co s & Associated members Focus Data maintainers (today s experts) Other users in member companies 35

36 Reporting Requirements modified Yellow Book geophysical data seismic etc. Blue Book digital wellbore data 36

37 Adjusted business model Annual fee for each individual module: Production Well data Trade Seismic download fees/mb in addition The business model/technology mix enables NPD/Diskos to have an more comprehensive approach to storing G&G data from NCS. Fulfilling the original intensions when Diskos was created Storage of all seismic data* Field data Pre-stack nav-seis merge Post-stack (significant versions) *Exemption to reporing requirements for commercially available seismic can be applied for (does not apply to post-stack data) 37

38 Data storage obligations Licensees have an obligation to store data in perpituity according to the petroleum legislation (Petroleum Act, section 10-4) For data that has been correctly loaded to Diskos, in compliance with the Regulations, the licensees or individual companies can obtain permanent release from their obligation to store data (on application) For licence participants this is an issue for all of the members of the licence, even though the operator has a particular responsibility From 2015 the NPD will require all seismic data to be reported from point forward Work will begin to ensure that as much pre-2015 field and prestack data is loaded to the database The NPD will work with the Diskos community towards this goal 38
