September 19, 2003

Hosted by ExxonMobil

Conference Center
800 Bell Street
Houston, Texas



The focus of this Seminar was on 'right time' seamless flow of well site data between operators and service companies to speed and enhance decision-making.  People interested in this key business process of drilling data acquisition and transfer were invited to attend.

The WITSML standard supports data exchange from the rig site to the office environment.  Take-up of WITSML is strong.  

There were presentations from oil company operators, software suppliers, and service companies addressing their experiences with WITSML deployment and plans for future WITSML use. 

Software suppliers exhibited WITSML solutions. 

A reception, sponsored by Schlumberger, was held on the evening of Thursday Sept 18 at the Front Porch Pub, 217 Gray Street, near downtown Houston.  Attendees of both the Sept. 18 & 19 meetings were invited to attend.

More information on the WITSML initiative/specifications can be found on the WITSML Web site or by contacting Alan Doniger at POSC.  All organizations with an interest in the WITSML standard are invited to join the WITSML SIG to support the standard and to determine its future direction.
