Business benefits

• Create data once, reuse many times
• Improve quality of data
• Enables concurrent engineering
• Enables data to be shared across partners,
  customers and vendors
• Enables use of best in class application
  systems
• With one time cost of mapping required to get
  data to neutral format
• Use of common terminology

Reduces cost and time

Vision of the POSC/CAESAR Project

• Reduce the life cycle cost and development time
  of oil and gas facilities by improving sharing
  and exchange of information among those involved
  in the facilities life cycle

10
CAESAR History

• Initiated as a strategic research program for the
  offshore oil industry in 1993.
• Funded by Statoil, Norsk Hydro, Saga Petroleum,
  Kvaerner, Aker, Det Norske Veritas and The
  Research Council of Norway.
• Reorganised in 1994 as a joint industry project,
  focused on developing international standards for
  electronic exchange and sharing of data.
  Collaboration with POSC.
• Brown Root, Elf and BP joined in 1995

11
Collaboration with POSC

• Oil Gas Industry
• Similar goals
• Data sharing
• Application interoperability
• International
• Successful process and technology
• Leverage of POSC technology

12
Objectives of POSC/CAESAR

• Produce agreed standards for digital descriptions
  of facility products
• Standard industry data model
• Understand and facilitate the use of available
  technology for implementation of the standards
• Data access and exchange technology
• Encourage and assist take-up of the standards and
  technology by the business

13
POSC/CAESAR Requirements

• One life cycle model that supports shared data
  access
• Usable results within 2 years
• Maintenance and future enhancement of the life
  cycle model
• ISO/STEP compatibility

Take-up Activities

• ETAP Data Warehouse
• Eastern Trough Area Project -UK offshore project
• Åsgard, Visund and Varg Data Warehouses
• Norwegian offshore projects
• called the VÅV-project
• NORSOK Piping Data Base
• Norwegian piping standard

29
Take Up Projects - ETAP

• Lessons learnt
• The scale of effort in mapping existing data in
  database applications to AP 221. This is a huge
  effort and requires the involvement of people who
  understand the meaning of the data (e.g..
  engineers) in addition to the software
  developers. People need to understand that
  becoming STEP compliant is not just a question
  of buying a bit of software, you have a great
  deal of work to do.

Take Up Projects- NORSOK

• NORSOK has decided to develop a standard piping
  database to serve Norwegian Offshore industry
• Statoil, Hydro, Kvaerner and Aker participate
• The project includes provision of a piping
  database and user applications
• The POSC/CAESAR Standard Reference Library is the
  basis of the database and applications
• The initiative may be extended to standard parts
  information in general

33
New Take-up projects?

• quote from BP
• The POSC/CAESAR data model and standard data are
  forming a significant part of the information
  management strategies of a number of BP projects
  around the world, which are in their conceptual
  stages

34
Objectives for 1997

• Product Model Concept proven by year end.
• ISO
• New work item accepted by ISO
• Committe draft finalized by year end
• Future organization and funding secured
