OpenSpirit announced the release of LoadIT WITSML 2009, a data transfer utility that enables real-time transfer of critical well data from multiple WITSML server sources to multiple OpenSpirit-enabled data stores. It is the first end-to-end, source-to-destination and vendor-independent solution for the transfer of real-time data from the rig site to the project data store.

“Geologists and other oil company end users told us that seamless transfer of WITSML-based well data would not only eliminate tedious import/export processes, but would also ensure appropriate allocation of drilling dollars – key in today’s challenging economic climate,” said Dan Piette, President & CEO of OpenSpirit. “LoadIT WITSML gives right-time connectivity to the entire asset team, so geoscientists, engineers and other team members can have easy access to critical, real-time drilling data directly from their existing OpenSpirit integration environment.”

As the industry’s undisputed open-integration standard, OpenSpirit is the key to achieving true workflow transparency. With that flexibility and in mind, LoadIT WITSML enables continuous or discrete data streaming to a destination project data store. Leveraging the Osprey Connect Real-Time drilling libraries, LoadIT WITSML supports access to multiple WITSML servers, including: Schlumberger InterAct , Baker Hughes RigLink, Kongsberg SiteCom, Halliburton Sperry INSITE, PetroLink PowerStream, Wellstorm, Generic WITSML 1.2 and 1.3 servers.

With LoadIT as a bridge, data is no longer stranded in unreachable data stores, and drilling workflows can be easily extended to encompass the subsurface geoscience environment, providing an “anywhere-to-anywhere” transparent real-time solution to support asset team collaboration and decision making.
