New in Norway: AVEVA NET Showcase for Integrated Operations
AVEVA announced that it will be publicly previewing its AVEVA NET technology for Owner Operators in Norway for the first time, at ONS in Stavanger, one of the industry's most high-profile international oil and gas events.
The focus of the showcase will be AVEVA NET's "integrated operations" capability, which provides fast and easy access to multi-format information from disparate sources and across all areas of the business, to better support regulatory compliance and enhance the safety of plants and their personnel.
AVEVA NET makes data available wherever and whenever it is required - and in whatever combination - regardless of which programs created it. This makes AVEVA NET a natural fit for an operational environment, where different types of information often need to be made available at a moment's notice, in order to support the decision making processes associated (in particular) with plant maintenance.
To this end, AVEVA NET features: the latest release of AVEVA NET Portal, a renamed and upgraded version of AVEVA's proven VNET solution, which provides a unified, web-based, digital view of the physical plant that can be shared easily across offices and territories; and AVEVA NET Enterprise, a fully customisable, plant data management system that supports workflow-based interoperability and change management.
AVEVA NET is compliant with ISO 15926 and is a natural progression of the data warehousing approach, using a "federated" model, in which data is indexed in its native format, rather than in the rigid structures of a data warehouse. This is made possible through the use of XML and the latest interoperability benefits of the Microsoft infrastructure. The results: rapid implementation, support for ongoing development across the entire lifespan, lower cost of ownership and more up-to-date, accurate data - with no extensive, upfront data consolidation exercise.
Derek Middlemas, Executive Vice President, Business Strategy, at AVEVA, commented: "There is mounting pressure in the industry to rapidly achieve integrated operations. AVEVA NET provides for fast, flexible data, from virtually any source and in virtually any format. It can spot data discrepancies and make information instantly visible across teams and continents, through a simple browser. We believe AVEVA NET is the right choice of vehicle to meet the challenges of the integrated operations journey."
