 OverviewSuccess in the E&P business turns on generating higher and higher performance from your assets and people. In today’s environment, with intense competition, operational complexity and new regulations around every corner, success requires more than just hard work and a spreadsheet. To consistently improve E&P performance, you must leverage the data your people, assets and vendors generate. Data must be auto-captured, shared and converted into actionable information. Metrics and predictive analytics must be interwoven with traditional business methods to drive returns. Real-time information access, automated regulatory filings and, most importantly, enterprise knowledge sharing must be the end result. The Enbase Asset Control Panel is specifically designed to accomplish these tasks for E&P companies.  Business ChallengePeople across your company generate and require unique information about your assets to get their specific jobs done. “Enterprise Asset Management” systems were originally created to allow for this, but often cannot keep pace with the rate of business and regulatory change in today’s energy marketplace. Each team or department therefore ends up working from isolated spreadsheets or specialized applications, even though the underlying properties, wells, equipment, parts and materials are the same. As your organization strives to grow and continuously lower its costs, the challenge becomes how do you combine these asset-related activities and data in a way that allows each department to get its specific job done, without negatively impacting the others – or sharing information in a way that drives growth and productivity?.  Business SolutionThe Enbase Asset Control Panel allows everyone in your organization to focus on their specific job, and simultaneously see and understand the information and activities of their colleagues that are touching the same assets, people, operations, processes and regulatory requirements. It does this by tying your asset, operations, safety and regulatory activities together into a single, control panel interface. It also serves as a platform for “green field” automation of new activities, assets and regulations that your existing systems may not be equipped to address.  How it WorksThe Enbase Asset Control Panel uses a simple and efficient data exchange technology to regularly poll your existing applications, databases and spreadsheets for all asset-related activities and data, and combines this information into a light weight, web-based interface. Each company employee can view and customize the interface as necessary to better suit the specific work they need to do as it relates to and impacts your company’s assets. A comprehensive history is maintained so that it is always easy to see who changed what and when. The Enbase ACP can also collect new information as your business evolves, and transmit it back to your existing applications and/or ERP systems of record.  Use Case ExamplesExample (1): A QHSE manager can use the Enbase Asset Control Panel to monitor and be alerted to operational activities and work orders that may have an environmental or regulatory impact – without having to micro-monitor the daily activities, spreadsheets or applications of the operations group.  Technical InformationThe Enbase Asset Control Panel is architected on advanced, yet easy-to-maintain Microsoft technology. The frontend utilizes HTML5 and Javascript, which gives the ACP its powerful data visualization capabilities and compelling user interface through a browser. The backend utilizes MS SQL Server 2008, as well as SSIS for the data mart and powerful OLAP cube for fast data indexing and searching.  PricingThe Enbase E&P Asset Control Panel is priced to deliver an immediate return on investment. Unlike some software companies that sell the same application across multiple industries, we focus our engineering time and attention on energy alone – thus keeping the cost down and the functionality high. Our pricing reflects this fact, as Enbase is typically 50+ percent more affordable than alternative systems, but with more energy-focused functionality. We also offer both fully hosted and on-premise alternatives for all of our applications.
