Full Details

IDS is launching its new TourNet2 application at Offshore Europe 2011. The completely rewritten application will now be available as a web-based tool which will allow Rig Contractors, for the first time, to learn from their data, rather than merely recording it.

TourNet2 transforms the IADC Tour Sheet from being just an electronic version of the document, to become a digital database that can be mined for information. A single master file can be created of all the tour sheet data making it possible to analyse an overview of several rigs simultaneously or one rig over time. TourNet2 is fully indexed and searchable, has file manager for sharing associated documents, graphics, jpegs, etc, has bi-directional WITSML capabilities and is accessible remotely by unlimited users.

The TourNet2 application sits on the DataNet2 framework of web-based drilling reporting and analysis tools. This means that it can be used in conjunction with the other DataNet2 applications, like VisNet, for overarching analysis, or DrillNet for exploration and production reporting.

Douwe Franssens, Global General Manager for IDS, says: “IDS believes that while it is important to record drilling data, being able to interrogate and analyse such data makes it possible to learn from it, resulting in time and cost savings. All the DataNet2 applications aim to maximise the efficiency of drilling reporting and to gain the greatest possible use and knowledge from the acquired information.”

About IDS
IDS provides intuitive, web-delivered, daily reporting and analysis services to the upstream oil and gas industry, cost effectively.

IDS’s suite of powerful reporting tools, DataNet2, is based around the concept of centralising data - enabling operational information to be instantly accessed and easily acquired, managed, shared, viewed, delivered and analysed, across the web or via the client’s network. Applications cover: exploration & production reporting, supply chain management and data visualisation & knowledge management. Each can be used as a standalone item or, within the DataNet2 framework, can support and share data with the other applications.

Utilising the skills of industry-experienced engineers in conjunction with advanced IT thinking, IDS strives always to be at the very forefront of product innovation. The level of integration allowed by the WITSML-compliant, web-based, DataNet2 system, is second to none. A pioneering cost model and 24/7 support allow clients to get the very most from IDS at all times, with a system that sustains the drilling project life cycle from initial concept to final decommissioning.
