This document discusses the challenges that oil and gas companies face with managing large amounts of data as commodity prices decline. It argues that companies must implement a data management strategy to integrate data across their organization and leverage data to make better decisions. The strategy should classify key data, understand data ownership, and identify single sources of truth. This will become more important as data volumes continue growing and allow companies to optimize operations and remain profitable at lower commodity prices. Vendors must provide tools that facilitate data sharing and access to help companies address these challenges.

This study examined bone mineral density (BMD) in 54 children and adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis before and after a 12-week exercise program. The participants were randomly assigned to an exercise group or control group. The exercise group performed 100 two-footed jumps with a rope and muscle strength exercises 3 times per week. BMD was measured at the start, after 3 months, and after 6 months using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. The results showed that BMD values in the total body increased significantly in the exercise group after the program, while BMD measurements remained stable in the control group and for all participants remained within the normal reference range compared to other children. Thus, a short-
Pollution is covering 90% of beaches and spreading around the world, harming both humans and other species. If pollution continues at its current rate, humans may need to relocate to another planet, and life on Earth will become miserable as our bodies fill with toxic water and the environment grows darker. To help address this, individuals should use more environmentally friendly transportation like bikes and electric cars, and collect trash to reduce waste and pollution.

This study examined the effects of higher-intensity and lower-intensity robot-assisted therapy (RT) compared to control treatment (CT) for stroke rehabilitation. Fifty-four patients with chronic stroke were randomly assigned to one of the three 4-week interventions. The higher-intensity RT group showed significantly greater improvements on the Fugl-Meyer Assessment, a primary outcome measure of motor impairment, compared to the lower-intensity RT and CT groups. Within each group, secondary outcome measures also improved but differences between groups were not significant. Patients with moderate initial motor deficits benefited more from higher-intensity RT than those with severe or mild deficits.
Ville and George Water Pollution ProjectRorey Risdon
This document discusses the problems caused by water pollution. It notes that some people have to walk over 10 miles to find water in desert areas due to a lack of local water sources. They have to take short showers and use small amounts of water since they have to walk so far.

Pollution affects the Earth through space debris, rubbish, and air pollution caused by a lack of reducing, reusing, and recycling. Pollution hurts the planet and contaminates drinking water since all water is connected. Humans should avoid polluting because the world only has 1-3% of water available for human use, and pollution decreases this already limited supply. Noise pollution and people only caring about themselves without regard for others are also mentioned as sources of pollution problems.

This document summarizes a study on pain avoidance learning and the interaction between model-based and model-free systems. The study used a two-layer Markov decision task with different block conditions to test whether participants used model-based or model-free strategies. Results showed participants were more likely to use a model-free strategy in the flexible block condition and a model-based strategy in the specific block condition. Modeling results supported the existence of both systems in aversion learning, though parameter differences suggest a more dynamic arbitration process than in reward-based learning. The conclusion was that while arbitration between the systems shares similarities to reward learning, there are subtle differences in aversion.

This white paper discusses the concept of "dynamic value" or "true value", which is the subjective value determined by the person or organization doing the valuing. It argues that in order to provide added value, one must understand what the client, organization, or individual values through the equation "Knowing Value = Adding Value". It then provides examples of applying this concept at different levels - for clients by tailoring solutions to meet needs and contribute to bottom lines; within organizations by understanding internal touch points and customers; and for individual employees by connecting their work to business goals and outcomes. The paper advocates understanding how one's work adds value at each level in order to differentiate and succeed.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

6. The recent economic downturn is showing signs of being long lasting and Oil
& Gas companies must find new ways of operating at lower costs and with
fewer people. Operational efficiencies need to be one of the top objectives
that drives all activities focusing on a new operating model for tomorrow.
G&A expense reduction in companies will be a continued push but that will
not be enough to get companies where they need to go to be successful
and optimize their profitability. They will need to be innovative and look for
areas to leverage data more quickly and effectively to make better decisions
that truly affect the bottom-line.
The following principles will guide decisions in the new economic environment:
• Data management will be aided by strong discipline and
integrated application solutions.
• Companies will seek solutions that help to enable the sharing
of information and reporting of corporate key performance
indicators
• Companies will leverage technology solutions that enable the key
attributes of data (shown in figure 1 below) that drive business
intelligence within their organization
Executive Summary

6 Drowning In Data - A Perspective for the Canadian Oil & Gas Patch
THE CENSEO GROUP
7. The Oil & Gas industry needs to support technology based tools that
promote the transparent sharing of private data internally and public data
externally. This external sharing will leverage both cloud technology and
some form of “data-hubs” that drive a publish and subscribe mentality to
allow organizations to simplify the population of public data throughout
their respective software tools. This technology will also provide better
solutions to support ongoing M&A activities in the oil and gas sector with
efficiencies in the exchange of data between companies.
The understanding of the “ten square blocks” we call the Calgary Oil &
Gas community will become very obvious as software tools enable more
collaborative sharing and truly allow organizations to focus on the ingredients
of their internal organization that give them a competitive advantage.
Internally, organizations need to build their data management strategies
to focus on turning the mounds of data into knowledge. Classifying the key
data elements, understanding the ownership of the data and identifying
the sources of truth for the organization will be essential. Technology is
not the answer to the problem it is simply an enabler. Success with a data
management strategy will be driven by a design that looks at the company
as a whole and with a view towards integrating data across the organization.
Data growth between now and 2020 will cripple organizations that don’t
have a data management strategy as well as the effective processes and the
software tools to manage the information. Those companies that recognize
the value of the information and leverage it to their advantage will drive
a paradigm shift in the way they operate their business with the ability to
affect the bottom-line of their company. Vendors who provide tools focused
on integration and providing easy access to knowledge will form strategic
partnerships with their clients aligning their solutions to the valued based
objectives of the oil and gas community.
The value of data as an asset will become a priority in oil and gas with a
focus similar to that paid to a barrel of oil and the impact to the bottom
line will be well articulated and data governance mandated.

8. More than 35,000 workers have lost their jobs in the Alberta market place
and oil has lost more than 50% of it’s value in less than a year. The trend in
commodity prices shows no sign of recapturing its value in the near future
and many are speculating that we have reached a new norm with the oil
price stabilizing somewhere between $40 and $60/bbl. (U.S. dollars).
With that in mind, Oil & Gas companies need to find a new way to operate
and drive efficiencies to optimize their profit from every barrel of oil they
produce.
Managing an Oil & Gas business, like many other businesses, is all about
the data. There are millions and millions of data elements generated and
used by Oil & Gas companies every day to make informed and strategic
decisions for their organizations. These companies have terabytes of data
stored on computers and it is growing exponentially day by day. This has
decision makers in organizations scratching their heads and asking “how
do I survive the data flood gates and how do I make sense of it all?”
The reality is that companies have too much data (not knowing where to
start), too many disparate sources of data (not knowing where to look),
less people to do the work and too much knowledge that has left the
organization (layoffs and retirements). This all adds up to lost opportunity
as the organization is not taking full advantage of one of its largest and
most valuable assets – “business intelligence” driven by data.

9. Data volumes are growing at unimaginable rates (IDC released a study in
2011 stating data will grow 50 times greater by 2020).
The volume of data is becoming a crippler for some organizations as
they struggle to make sense of the information and lose trust in the data
leveraged for decision making. There is no single answer to this issue and
there is no single technology solution that that will address this issue. Oil
& Gas companies will need to improve their use of data and their analytics
capabilities in order to compete in an industry where decisions are moving
faster and the stakes are growing ever higher.
The Answer Is – There Is No Silver Bullet!

10. Oil & Gas companies need to look at data management from a bigger picture
perspective by focusing on the following:
• Information Management Strategy – How do we deliver knowledge
(not data) to the organization to drive faster and more impactful
decisions
• Classification of Data – Focus on what is important to the
company and investing effort at the right level on the right things
at the right time
• Ownership of Data – Identify and grow data stewards in their
organization to drive value from the data, ensure accuracy of the
data, and steward the propagation of data sets for company value
• Integration of Software Solutions - Enter data once and it is
available where it is required. This should address both public
and private data sets with the ability to strengthen collaboration
across the Oil & Gas industry
• Elimination of Redundant Data and Software – Leverage the
capabilities of existing software tools, exercise more discipline
around software selection and establish processes to merge data
and software solutions from company acquisitions
• Security – Treat data like the valuable corporate asset it is by
ensuring it is secured and protected like other corporate assets
from corruption, damage, loss and compromise

11. Data is the gold of tomorrow’s Oil & Gas companies and those companies
that develop and execute an effective information management strategy
will be able to unleash the power of one of their most valuable assets –
INFORMATION.
Business Intelligence, in many organizations, is seen as a technical solution
on top of data and thus we see a proliferation of reporting tools, largely
focused on vertical silos of information. This data has not been classified,
mapped to the source of truth or prioritized with respect to the importance
to the organization. Therefore, the old adage “garbage-in garbage-out”
typically is the frustration that end-users face. All too often we as users
want to jump to solutions when we do not really understand the question
or business problem that we are attempting to solve.
The reality is that business intelligence is derived from data that has
been turned into knowledge and identified through key information (key
performance indicators or KPI’s) for the organization. This business intelligence
can then be the basis to drive value-based decisions that can have a positive
impact on company performance. It is often said that knowledge is power so
if large amounts of data can be turned into knowledge then organizations
that maximize the value of their data can build powerful corporations.
Unleashing the power of data will allow organizations to make faster, strategic
decisions with respect to their operating key performance indicators, driving
value while empowering the staff to leverage innovation for the benefit of
the company.

12. Oil & Gas companies today have hundreds of software applications to
support their business processes. These applications have propagated
organically and/or through corporate acquisitions creating environments
with superfluous solutions to business problems. Where integration does
exist it is usually through point-to-point connections and intermediate
database tables. These one-off connections add time and usually cannot
be shared or reused by other applications. The net result is a hornet’s nest
with redundant applications, redundant data and limited ability to find the
raw data, let alone the ability to turn this into knowledge to drive decisions
and value for the company.
Acquisitions and dispositions of assets or entire companies is a perfect
example of an opportunity for our market place. We often use the term
M&A (mergers and acquisitions) to describe this activity yet very rarely do
we achieve the full meaning of the word “merge” during these transactions.
It is not due to a lack of commitment as the plan and thought process are
well laid out and the intentions are good. However, more often than not the
effort to achieve a full integration and merger of the data and software solu-
tions is underestimated and not as easy as first believed. Again referencing
back to the community of 10 square blocks in downtown Calgary, most Oil
& Gas companies share many of the same applications and leverage the
same data yet, when it comes to absorbing or consolidating data sets, the
lack of standardization and consistency make this process overly complex,
expensive and time consuming.
Looking For The Answer Where?
The Hornet’s Nest: Redundant Applications and Redundand Data
»» Figure 7: The Hornet’s Nest
12 Drowning In Data - A Perspective for the Canadian Oil & Gas Patch
THE CENSEO GROUP
13. Another factor that adds to the hornet’s nest is the multitude of software
tools that are in our market space that basically do the same thing with some
minor exceptions. Talented Oil & Gas professionals (Engineers, Geologists,
Geophysicists, etc.) leverage their own analytic modeling systems with little
or no connectivity to other tools. They move from company to company
requesting their tools and insisting it allows them to perform their job more
efficiently delivering greater results. Company leaders, understanding these
are the professionals directly associated with the finding and production of
oil and gas, often see value in just supporting these software tool requests
that ultimately lead to redundant data and tools within the organization.
The third and one of the most important factors is that IT costs within Oil &
Gas companies is generally considered unimportant, a drop in the bucket
or a rounding error. Data strategy and overall investment in IT tools during
strong economic times gets very little attention from senior management
of companies. This allows redundant data and tools to grow without strong
discipline around the planning and design of a proper data strategy and
architecture. Due to the rapid pace in the Oil and Gas industry there has
been a precedent to rush to a technology solution to a problem before
fully understanding the opportunity. Again this leads to redundant data
and application solutions driving the need for more effort on gathering and
identifying the data versus the analysis and interpretation of the information.

THE CENSEO GROUP
14. In an ideal world the complexity of integration and addressing the source
of truth would happen “auto-magically” enabled by technology. The Oil &
Gas organizations would leverage common data hubs to enable a publish-
and-subscribe population of public information where and as required.
Business Application Solutions would be designed to handle the nuances of
Oil & Gas and have a tight integration across the suite of tools provided. In
the ideal state, A&D activity would be supported by the standardization of
platforms and the centralized data hubs allowing for the seamless transfer
of information and the ability to easily merge solutions and data.
Reporting key performance indicators for organizations would be streamlined
with a single tool to look at company data with sources of truth and data
ownership clearly identified.
While we have classified this as the ideal state that should in no way imply
that it is unattainable nor that it is far off in the future. In fact - companies
need to get the added value from data now and work in partnership with
their technology vendors to ensure solutions support leveraging data across
the company and functional disciplines.
