Proposed
Geophysics
SIG
A new Geophysics Special Interest
Group has been proposed by Energistics member Oil & Natural Gas
Corporation of India (ONGC), to indentify the current needs and
requirements for open standards and improved work practices for seismic
data exchange. With initial funding from ONGC, an Assessment Work
Group has been formed under the leadership of Energistics to assess
industry requirements, produce a business case, and to develop a roadmap
with a resource estimate for the potential new open standards.
Informational meetings have been held in Houston, Mumbai and
Hyderabad. If you are interested in participating on this
Assessment Work Group, please contact the Energistics Project Manager at:
