IM Moment: Lake Peigneur • History: The lake was a 3 meter deep freshwater lake, popular with sportsmen until
an unusual man-made disaster on November 20, 1980 changed everything.
• Where: located in Louisiana, 9 miles west of New Iberia, near the northernmost tip of Vermillion Bay
• What Happened: The Diamond Crystal Salt Co. operated the Jefferson Island salt mine under the lake. A Texaco rig drilled from the lake but a miscalculation of the drill path, the 14 inch well bore entered the third level of the mine, starting a chain of events which turned the freshwater lake into a salt water lake with a deep hole.
• The lake drained into the hole, expanding the size of the hole filling the caverns left by the removal of the salt. The resulting whirlpool sucked in the drilling rig, eleven barges and 65 acres of the surrounding terrain. So much water drained into the caverns that the flow of the Delcambre Canal was reversed making the canal a temporary inlet. The backflow created the tallest waterfall ever in the state of Louisiana at 50m as the lake refilled with salt water from Vermillion Bay. Air escaping from the mine created 120 m high geysers up through the mineshafts.
• There were no injuries and no human lives lost. All 55 employees of the mine were able to escape as well as the drilling crew and one local fisherman who was able to drive his small boat to shore before it was caught in the whirlpool.

Technical Challenges • Information explosion • Process failures • Hidden solutions
• Many masters of data • Ongoing support costs • Communication
How did we end up here?
• Downsizing and merger activity • Consequences of ‘Best of Breed’
technology • Powerful desktop tools • Legacy solutions never die, until the user
leaves • Data explosion • Absence of a widely deployed standards

We Need to See the Bigger Picture
10
A City Plan is to Enterprise Architecture…
• Zoning • Utilities • Roads • Services
As a Blueprint is to Solution Architecture • Foundation • Framing, sheeting • Plumbing, Wiring
Make Decisions
Collect Data Gather & Analyze
The Information Pipeline
Oil Field Automation
Information Overload
Capability for Modeling & Simulations
• Real time data collection
• Fully Instrumented Facilities
• Data Access, formatting, quality control
• Lack of consistent master data
• Lack of information exchange standards
• More detailed models (earth, reservoir, facilities, economic, full asset simulation) for simulation, modeling & visualization
11
Information Architecture
12
• Information has an identified System of Record
• The information model supports sharing and integration
• Adequate data quality • Information delivered
through Service Oriented Architecture
Return to Sanity • Start with key decisions,
understand the work process
• Establish information quality assurance and standard systems of record
• Establish data governance • Use data integration and
information visualization framework
14
Process and Framework
• Planning • Quality improvements • Identify opportunities to increase
value • Establishing standards for quality,
ownership, and exchange • Demonstrate the information value
chain for KEY information 15
Data Governance Requires organization, process and technology changes that span both IT and business in the management of data.
17
• Clear delineation of responsibility for producers and consumers (people, app)
• Documented processes and cross-functional (line of business) authority
Data governance
and stewardship
model
• Can’t govern what you can’t see – need measures
• Measures are consistent, quantitative, and not arbitrary
Data quality controls
framework
• Control measures properly stored and easily accessible
• Analysis is multi-dimensional
Metadata repository
Information Quality Management
Agent of Change • Breaks down “data fortresses” • Removes data as an impediment to change and innovation • Independent of any specific software application
18
The Prize: Increasing the Value of Information
• Making data easier to find • Providing better analysis tools • Integrating data into standard workflows
Making data more available for decision-
making
• Clearly identified systems of record • Improved accuracy, increased trust Improved data quality
• Data is stored once and re-used • Minimize re-entry of data
Integration / Interoperability
• Quickly respond to customer requests • User-friendly systems
Effective operations of data management
systems 19
Why? Being good at information management may be one of last competitive advantages left • Recognizing an exploration opportunity
• Increasing recovery from existing reservoirs
• Meeting requirements from regulatory agencies
and partners
• Making the best decisions requires good data

Why Now? They are Waiting for an Answer
IT Consumerization
I love Wikipedia. I want something similar here where I can find reliable information quickly.
As a new employee, I need better onboarding tools to quickly get up to speed.
As a manager, I worry that my employees use tools outside the company to discuss internal business.
I have 35 years of experience. Why don’t we create a venue where I can share my knowledge and contribute after I retire?
I want a system that will enable me to better communicate with my project team and stakeholders.
I am overwhelmed by email. We could use a better way to communicate.

Takeaways
• Our ability to collect data is growing, but our capability to use this data is constrained
• Must begin by understanding your business
processes and key decisions • Apply the principles of information architecture

BUSINESS
If we can survive the data deluge, we can get back to business
