GIS application in oil and gas exploration & production activities based on past experience

Exploration and Production (E&P) is the earliest activities done in oil and gas business. E&P lifecycle consists of Exploration, Appraisal, Development, Production and Abandonment phase. A lot of data types have been produced through this lifecycle. E&P activities are mainly divided into...
