Exploration: Spotfire DecisionSite helps explorationists convert plays to prospects with visual interactive analysis
The most important decisions in exploration require the synthesis of information from specialists across multiple disciplines. Effective analysis tools require analytical power and ease of use but also the flexibility to adapt to different business processes. Packaged design and interpretation tools are powerful but inflexible. They require specialized training and often use application specific databases, making sharing results and methods across exploration teams difficult. Today, many exploration teams attempt to bridge this gap using spreadsheet based applications, sacrificing best practices and scalability for simple convenience. Spotfire has a better approach.
DecisionSite is a highly visual and open analysis environment that complements packaged applications and leverages the expertise of analysts. A few clicks combine and visualize multi-sourced information with an array of dynamically linked plots that dramatically increase insight and understanding of complex data. DecisionSite allows experts to capture reusable analysis methods that clearly and easily lead colleagues through approved steps to gather, calculate, visualize and share results. At the heart of the information advantage that can be achieved with DecisionSite is Spotfire’s Guided Analytics™ capability that allows the systematic capture of best analytic practices while preserving the opportunity for breakthrough discovery.
DecisionSite is used by every major western oil and gas company, many large independent producers and top oilfield services companies. DecisionSite helps explorationists develop novel plays and convert them into prospects with higher confidence and speed. DecisionSite MapConnect™ links spatial data to tabular project data such as reservoir properties, geochemistry, logs, and seismic attributes, and brings new insights to cross-functional exploration teams. DecisionSite provides quick look and quick understanding of peer technical data without the need to be an expert in every specialized application.
