IHS Markit is working to
support the OSDU Data Platform with EDM workflows aligned with the
emerging OSDU technical standards, leveraging the published APIs. IHS
is offering to support upstream companies as OSDU ‘moves into
implementation’. EDM’s ‘data type and data model agnostic’ design means
that adoption can be achieved without ‘complex, time-consuming data
manipulation work’. More from IHS Markit.
Petrosys PRO V2021.2 delivers a ‘new and improved’ 3D Viewer, a ‘complete rebuild’ around a new graphics engine, along with multi-threading that uses more of the cores of modern processors.

Kongsberg Maritime has announced ‘Blue Insight’, a cloud-based digital toolbox for collection, visualization and management of ocean data. Blue Insight delivers marine and meteorological information for scientific and industrial users of the maritime environment. Data from ships, underwater vehicles and ROVs is accessible from Ocean View, a web-based viewer of historic and real-time data. An early adopter of Blue Insight is a collaboration between Kongsberg and Akvaplan-niva for the collection of meteorological, oceanographic, biological and chemical data from unmanned autonomous glider vehicles. The project has been under way for several years, but recent funding from ConocoPhillips Norway has focused on the Glider Project that is investigating the impact of offshore oil and gas facilities on some marine species in the North Sea.
