Fugro Selects OpenSpirit as Corporate-level Integration Solution
CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA - April 12, 2010
Fugro has signed a corporate-level Business Partner Agreement to leverage the OpenSpirit interoperability
framework across their family of companies and products. Fugro Data Solutions and Fugro-Jason will be the first of the Fugro
companies to take advantage of the OpenSpirit SDK.
The OpenSpirit framework will enhance Fugro’s ability to streamline data search and transfer between
applications and data stores, resulting in increased efficiency and productivity for data management and geoscience
staff and reducing overall IT and data management costs.
Currently, Fugro Data Solutions is working to OpenSpirit enable the Trango Data Management suite,
which provides advanced master data management capabilities for corporate seismic, well and geological report data.
OpenSpirit connectivity will better enable data manager’s exploration asset management and improve exploration asset
availability. Commercial release is expected in the first half of 2010.
In tandem with the work at Fugro Data Solutions, developers at Fugro-Jason are working
to provide cross-discipline connectivity to users of Fugro Jason tools, such as PowerLog and Jason Geoscience
Workbench; a petrophysics, geology, interpretation, and modeling solution. Fugro Jason is a leader in reservoir
characterization technology, and has utilized OpenSpirit for specific solutions for several years.
“We have heard from our customers that the ability to get control of their data assets and
enable seamless use of these assets in interpretations systems will greatly benefit their workflows. We believe
our efforts to enable end users of Trango and Fugro Jason applications is an excellent step to helping our customers
derive additional value in their organizations,” said Deryl Williams, President of Fugro Data Solutions Canada.
“We are committed to Fugro’s success and appreciate the opportunity to grow this strategic
partnership and make a difference across their entire organization,” said Dan Piette, President & CEO of OpenSpirit.
“This business partner agreement is investment in our technology, as well as our people and future vision.”
Looking to the future, Fugro and OpenSpirit will continue working together to improve data
connectivity and performance for customers.
