54 Breakout SessionsKeynotes 10:55am ROOM: 310 B Sponsored by OSIsoft CF Industries: Real-time Efficiency − Using Innovative Data Collection Techniques and the Right KPIs to Drive Excellence Bryan Pigg – Network Supervisor, CF Industries The convergence of IT and OT is impacting all of us – people struggling with old tools or adjusting to new ones can get stuck on a “decision making treadmill.” Efficiency is elusive as data is over-collected but under utilized. How can you provide solutions to capture the data you need, enable real-time decision making, and give management the visibility they demand? CF Industries will discuss how to identify the KPIs that drive business, use innovative data collection techniques to enable real-time decision making, and make efficiency everybody’s business. ROOM: 320 A/B Sponsored by Covisint Chevron: Increasing Agility and Eliminating the Security Risks of Contractor Access to Mission Critical Data Ravi Malla – Upstream Workflow Transformation Program Manager, Chevron Chevron Exploration and Production, like many other oil and gas companies, faced a big operation and security problem – how to simply and quickly provide users in the field with secure access to critical company data when most of those users are not Chevron employees. Chevron, like much of the oil and gas industry, utilizes contractors for mission critical maintenance and repair activities in the field. Since, on average, 77% of oil and gas personnel are contractors, this presents a significant user management problem. So how did Chevron solve their user management and security problem and provide additional agility into their user management operations? In this session, Chevron’s UWT Program Manager, Ravi Malla will explain how the company is working with COVISINT to implement the solution to contractor access and identity management for mission critical systems. ROOM: 320 C Sponsored by Gimmal Transocean: Driving Global Rig Documentation Management for the Enterprise Tony Borst – Director of IT Application Services, Transocean Decentralized content spread across multiple business applications and document management systems made it difficult and inefficient to connect people, processes, and content. For example, rig workers pulling documentation from multiple sources to perform maintenance resulted in wasted time, reduced effectiveness, and higher costs. As a result, Transocean began a project to align their numerous document management solutions and business applications to support the operation, collaboration, and management of 70-plus globally-dispersed offshore, deepwater drilling rigs and their supporting onshore offices. Attend this session to hear how the new “full service” RigDocs Commercial Content Management System has increased efficiency and reduced costs by providing a central location for documents across the enterprise. 1:10pm ROOM: 310 B Sponsored by Rockwell Automation Nalco Champion: Driving Value in Energy Extraction with Real-time Information Management John Schlitt – General Manager Automation Center of Excellence, Energy Services, Nalco Nalco wanted to improve the efficiency of chemical usage and dispersion to improve the quality of water used in energy extraction and production. To solve these issues, Nalco implemented commercial off-the-shelf technologies to manage information and assets remotely. Nalco’s Refined Knowledge® solution, combined with Rockwell Automation’s programmable automation controllers and Microsoft SharePoint, uses the internet to allow assets such as cooling and heating water equipment to operate more efficiently with longer life and improved thermal transfer characteristics reducing life cycle costs. Join this session to learn how these same concepts can be applied to improve the delivery and treatment of water used in production to help improve environmental standards. ROOM: 310 C Sponsored by Catapult Plains All American Pipeline: Implementing an Engineering Project Controls Management System Michael E. Cartwright – Engineering, Manager of Process Control, Plains All American Pipeline Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (PAALP) owns approximately 18,000 miles of pipelines throughout the US and Canada, operates a fleet of 582 trailers, 104 barges, and 51 transport tugs, and owns storage capacity of at least 23 million barrels. In order to remain compliant with DoT, OSHA and other regulatory agency requirements, Plains All American Pipeline, must maintain complete and proper records for its pipelines and facilities and be able to quickly produce documentation during an audit. In addition, the company continues to invest in capital expansion projects and programs with a higher degree of complexity, increased regulatory scrutiny, continued focus on cost/risk management and a lower tolerance for delays. Given the complexity of their business, Plains All American Pipeline implemented an Engineering Project Controls Management System (EPCMS), which includes a full- lifecycle Electronic Document Management System that aligns to PAALP’s defined business process throughout all stages of PAALP capital projects. Attend this session to learn how Plains All American Pipeline used this new system to increase operating efficiency.

Breakout Sessions continued ROOM: 320 A/B Sponsored by WIPRO The Williams Companies: The Journey To Self-Service BI Eric Vogelpohl – Senior IT Manager, The Williams Companies Like many companies in the energy industry, The Williams Companies’ IT department found itself supporting a variety of Business Intelligence (BI) packages. This required IT to staff a variety of skill sets and forced data into silos by reporting package, which required IT staff to spend a large amount of time building BI. As a result of the time intensity of building BI, the IT department became a barrier for the business user to collect needed information. The Williams Companies realized that their data was an asset that could be mined to gain business insights, which would help in optimizing operations and reducing costs. The key was for IT to standardize on the Microsoft BI stack to enable self-service BI. This allowed business users to gather their own reports and reuse the data as needed. As The Williams Companies completes this transformation, IT is finding itself less a provider of one-off data projects and more a provider of data-as-a-service. This change has allowed IT to focus more on data quality and master data management. The result is that business users now have easy access to data, the ability to analyze the data using everyday productivity tools, and the confidence that their analysis is based on accurate data. Join this session to find out how The Williams Companies were able to put this valuable data in the hands of users. ROOM: 320 C Sponsored by Stonebridge BreitBurn Energy Partners: Enabling Business Through a Pragmatic Approach to Enterprise Information Mike Dominick – Manager of Systems Integration and Development, BreitBurn Energy Upstream oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) companies face a broad spectrum of challenges due to the vast array of complex, data-driven software required to support the well life cycle. For BreitBurn Energy, some of these issues included siloed data and applications, multiple versions of master data, and limited scalability and supportability. As a result, BreitBurn Energy has aligned their ERP implementation with the build out of an Upstream Information Architecture, which provides the ability to centrally manage and present master and transactional data across the organization. By using industry standard models (PPDM) and the Microsoft toolset as the foundation for managing and presenting data, BreitBurn can provide unified and supportable solutions for managing structured and unstructured data to help make faster, more informed business decisions. Come and hear Mike Dominick discuss how BreitBurn tackled their ERP challenges with this solution. 3:00pm ROOM: 310 B Sponsored by Infosys McDermott: Managing and Tracking Complex EPC Projects Using Business Intelligence Maurice Tayeh – CIO, McDermott The single biggest challenge of an EPC project is to execute it on schedule and within budget. Traditionally, EPC projects run on single digit profit margins. Improving project execution by making data available for decision-makers can help improve operations and allow them to take necessary interventions to avoid cost overruns. McDermott has been very successful in executing large, complex EPC projects for its oil and gas clients under very challenging circumstances. The nature of the business demands accuracy and oversight, which is made much easier when the necessary data is available to business users. As a result, the company implemented PARS (Project Analytics and Reporting System), a standardized and centralized project controls reporting system, which draws information from various systems. PARS is an attempt to transform and standardize the setup of projects at granular levels, and it has multiple business, process, data, and technology components. This system provides ease of access to project data for meaningful analysis, which can be used as an indicator of true project health. Attend this session to find out how McDermott used PARS to put valuable data right in the hands of its users. ROOM: 310 C Sponsored by Infusion BHP Billiton Petroleum: Building Records Compliance into an Operational Solution Mary Jensen – Global Manager, Records & Knowledge Management, BHP Billiton Petroleum Successful information management strategies align with empowering the business, while keeping information safe and appropriately managed. This presentation focuses on how BHP Billiton Petroleum took the complexity of complying with records management policies for unstructured content and built that into a solution that improved efficiency and made it easier for the business user to find relevant information. Come to this session to hear how BHP Billiton Petroleum successfully implemented this solution across the value chain and tailored it to supporting functions for improved access to critical business information. ROOM: 320 A/B Sponsored by Microsoft Services Microsoft Services: Defending Against Modern Cyber Attacks Nate Morin (L) – Chief Technology Officer for the Microsoft Services’ CyberSecurity practice, Microsoft Corporation Patrick Arnold (R) – CyberSecurity General Manager, Microsoft Services, Microsoft Corporation Both public sector and commercial networks alike are under increasing threat from ideological groups, which commit attacks to gain notoriety and embarrass their victims; criminal syndicates, which steal monetizable assets such as credit card numbers; and national governments, which attack networks in order to gain advantage over potential adversaries and transfer commercial trade secrets to favored local industries. It is little wonder that CIOs include security as one of their Top 10 priorities. Microsoft has a view of attackers that is unparalleled. Since we are both a product and online service company with widespread global reach, we are able to bring what we learn to our customers. Come and hear Nate Morin, Chief Technology Officer for the Microsoft Services’ CyberSecurity practice, and Pat Arnold, GM of CyberSecurity, discuss industry-specific trends in CyberSecurity and how to improve your security posture and mitigate attacks utilizing Microsoft Services’ solutions and our team of experts. ROOM: 320 C Sponsored by Microsoft Dynamics Rockwater Energy Solutions: Oil & Gas Start-up to Scalable Enterprise Biren Kumar – VP and CIO, Rockwater Energy Solutions Aggressive growth requires systems that can keep pace with that growth. Rockwater came together in summer of 2011, with the combination of four companies. Growing from a start-up to a billion in revenue over a 24 month period, with an increase in employees from 1400 to 3000 during the same period, through acquisition of a number of companies at a very aggressive pace to fill out its product and geographic offering. The acquired companies ranged from specialty chemical manufacturing to trucking to rentals, pit-lining, and more. The legacy companies and the acquisitions ran a variety of different financial and ERP packages – none of which could scale past a hundred users or had the breadth of functionality the company needed without major customization. Rockwater was looking for a system to support its diverse functional needs but still remain agile and flexible enough to continue to grow with its aggressive plans. The company needed a platform that allowed for scale, would drive efficiency, and would become the foundation to differentiate its product offering. Attend this session to learn how Rockwater uses Dynamics AX & CRM to keep pace with their aggressive past and future growth. Photo courtesy of CAA Speakers

    54 Breakout SessionsKeynotes 10:55am ROOM: 310B Sponsored by OSIsoft CF Industries: Real-time Efficiency − Using Innovative Data Collection Techniques and the Right KPIs to Drive Excellence Bryan Pigg – Network Supervisor, CF Industries The convergence of IT and OT is impacting all of us – people struggling with old tools or adjusting to new ones can get stuck on a “decision making treadmill.” Efficiency is elusive as data is over-collected but under utilized. How can you provide solutions to capture the data you need, enable real-time decision making, and give management the visibility they demand? CF Industries will discuss how to identify the KPIs that drive business, use innovative data collection techniques to enable real-time decision making, and make efficiency everybody’s business. ROOM: 320 A/B Sponsored by Covisint Chevron: Increasing Agility and Eliminating the Security Risks of Contractor Access to Mission Critical Data Ravi Malla – Upstream Workflow Transformation Program Manager, Chevron Chevron Exploration and Production, like many other oil and gas companies, faced a big operation and security problem – how to simply and quickly provide users in the field with secure access to critical company data when most of those users are not Chevron employees. Chevron, like much of the oil and gas industry, utilizes contractors for mission critical maintenance and repair activities in the field. Since, on average, 77% of oil and gas personnel are contractors, this presents a significant user management problem. So how did Chevron solve their user management and security problem and provide additional agility into their user management operations? In this session, Chevron’s UWT Program Manager, Ravi Malla will explain how the company is working with COVISINT to implement the solution to contractor access and identity management for mission critical systems. ROOM: 320 C Sponsored by Gimmal Transocean: Driving Global Rig Documentation Management for the Enterprise Tony Borst – Director of IT Application Services, Transocean Decentralized content spread across multiple business applications and document management systems made it difficult and inefficient to connect people, processes, and content. For example, rig workers pulling documentation from multiple sources to perform maintenance resulted in wasted time, reduced effectiveness, and higher costs. As a result, Transocean began a project to align their numerous document management solutions and business applications to support the operation, collaboration, and management of 70-plus globally-dispersed offshore, deepwater drilling rigs and their supporting onshore offices. Attend this session to hear how the new “full service” RigDocs Commercial Content Management System has increased efficiency and reduced costs by providing a central location for documents across the enterprise. 1:10pm ROOM: 310 B Sponsored by Rockwell Automation Nalco Champion: Driving Value in Energy Extraction with Real-time Information Management John Schlitt – General Manager Automation Center of Excellence, Energy Services, Nalco Nalco wanted to improve the efficiency of chemical usage and dispersion to improve the quality of water used in energy extraction and production. To solve these issues, Nalco implemented commercial off-the-shelf technologies to manage information and assets remotely. Nalco’s Refined Knowledge® solution, combined with Rockwell Automation’s programmable automation controllers and Microsoft SharePoint, uses the internet to allow assets such as cooling and heating water equipment to operate more efficiently with longer life and improved thermal transfer characteristics reducing life cycle costs. Join this session to learn how these same concepts can be applied to improve the delivery and treatment of water used in production to help improve environmental standards. ROOM: 310 C Sponsored by Catapult Plains All American Pipeline: Implementing an Engineering Project Controls Management System Michael E. Cartwright – Engineering, Manager of Process Control, Plains All American Pipeline Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (PAALP) owns approximately 18,000 miles of pipelines throughout the US and Canada, operates a fleet of 582 trailers, 104 barges, and 51 transport tugs, and owns storage capacity of at least 23 million barrels. In order to remain compliant with DoT, OSHA and other regulatory agency requirements, Plains All American Pipeline, must maintain complete and proper records for its pipelines and facilities and be able to quickly produce documentation during an audit. In addition, the company continues to invest in capital expansion projects and programs with a higher degree of complexity, increased regulatory scrutiny, continued focus on cost/risk management and a lower tolerance for delays. Given the complexity of their business, Plains All American Pipeline implemented an Engineering Project Controls Management System (EPCMS), which includes a full- lifecycle Electronic Document Management System that aligns to PAALP’s defined business process throughout all stages of PAALP capital projects. Attend this session to learn how Plains All American Pipeline used this new system to increase operating efficiency.

Breakout Sessions continued ROOM: 320 A/B Sponsored by WIPRO The Williams Companies: The Journey To Self-Service BI Eric Vogelpohl – Senior IT Manager, The Williams Companies Like many companies in the energy industry, The Williams Companies’ IT department found itself supporting a variety of Business Intelligence (BI) packages. This required IT to staff a variety of skill sets and forced data into silos by reporting package, which required IT staff to spend a large amount of time building BI. As a result of the time intensity of building BI, the IT department became a barrier for the business user to collect needed information. The Williams Companies realized that their data was an asset that could be mined to gain business insights, which would help in optimizing operations and reducing costs. The key was for IT to standardize on the Microsoft BI stack to enable self-service BI. This allowed business users to gather their own reports and reuse the data as needed. As The Williams Companies completes this transformation, IT is finding itself less a provider of one-off data projects and more a provider of data-as-a-service. This change has allowed IT to focus more on data quality and master data management. The result is that business users now have easy access to data, the ability to analyze the data using everyday productivity tools, and the confidence that their analysis is based on accurate data. Join this session to find out how The Williams Companies were able to put this valuable data in the hands of users. ROOM: 320 C Sponsored by Stonebridge BreitBurn Energy Partners: Enabling Business Through a Pragmatic Approach to Enterprise Information Mike Dominick – Manager of Systems Integration and Development, BreitBurn Energy Upstream oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) companies face a broad spectrum of challenges due to the vast array of complex, data-driven software required to support the well life cycle. For BreitBurn Energy, some of these issues included siloed data and applications, multiple versions of master data, and limited scalability and supportability. As a result, BreitBurn Energy has aligned their ERP implementation with the build out of an Upstream Information Architecture, which provides the ability to centrally manage and present master and transactional data across the organization. By using industry standard models (PPDM) and the Microsoft toolset as the foundation for managing and presenting data, BreitBurn can provide unified and supportable solutions for managing structured and unstructured data to help make faster, more informed business decisions. Come and hear Mike Dominick discuss how BreitBurn tackled their ERP challenges with this solution. 3:00pm ROOM: 310 B Sponsored by Infosys McDermott: Managing and Tracking Complex EPC Projects Using Business Intelligence Maurice Tayeh – CIO, McDermott The single biggest challenge of an EPC project is to execute it on schedule and within budget. Traditionally, EPC projects run on single digit profit margins. Improving project execution by making data available for decision-makers can help improve operations and allow them to take necessary interventions to avoid cost overruns. McDermott has been very successful in executing large, complex EPC projects for its oil and gas clients under very challenging circumstances. The nature of the business demands accuracy and oversight, which is made much easier when the necessary data is available to business users. As a result, the company implemented PARS (Project Analytics and Reporting System), a standardized and centralized project controls reporting system, which draws information from various systems. PARS is an attempt to transform and standardize the setup of projects at granular levels, and it has multiple business, process, data, and technology components. This system provides ease of access to project data for meaningful analysis, which can be used as an indicator of true project health. Attend this session to find out how McDermott used PARS to put valuable data right in the hands of its users. ROOM: 310 C Sponsored by Infusion BHP Billiton Petroleum: Building Records Compliance into an Operational Solution Mary Jensen – Global Manager, Records & Knowledge Management, BHP Billiton Petroleum Successful information management strategies align with empowering the business, while keeping information safe and appropriately managed. This presentation focuses on how BHP Billiton Petroleum took the complexity of complying with records management policies for unstructured content and built that into a solution that improved efficiency and made it easier for the business user to find relevant information. Come to this session to hear how BHP Billiton Petroleum successfully implemented this solution across the value chain and tailored it to supporting functions for improved access to critical business information. ROOM: 320 A/B Sponsored by Microsoft Services Microsoft Services: Defending Against Modern Cyber Attacks Nate Morin (L) – Chief Technology Officer for the Microsoft Services’ CyberSecurity practice, Microsoft Corporation Patrick Arnold (R) – CyberSecurity General Manager, Microsoft Services, Microsoft Corporation Both public sector and commercial networks alike are under increasing threat from ideological groups, which commit attacks to gain notoriety and embarrass their victims; criminal syndicates, which steal monetizable assets such as credit card numbers; and national governments, which attack networks in order to gain advantage over potential adversaries and transfer commercial trade secrets to favored local industries. It is little wonder that CIOs include security as one of their Top 10 priorities. Microsoft has a view of attackers that is unparalleled. Since we are both a product and online service company with widespread global reach, we are able to bring what we learn to our customers. Come and hear Nate Morin, Chief Technology Officer for the Microsoft Services’ CyberSecurity practice, and Pat Arnold, GM of CyberSecurity, discuss industry-specific trends in CyberSecurity and how to improve your security posture and mitigate attacks utilizing Microsoft Services’ solutions and our team of experts. ROOM: 320 C Sponsored by Microsoft Dynamics Rockwater Energy Solutions: Oil & Gas Start-up to Scalable Enterprise Biren Kumar – VP and CIO, Rockwater Energy Solutions Aggressive growth requires systems that can keep pace with that growth. Rockwater came together in summer of 2011, with the combination of four companies. Growing from a start-up to a billion in revenue over a 24 month period, with an increase in employees from 1400 to 3000 during the same period, through acquisition of a number of companies at a very aggressive pace to fill out its product and geographic offering. The acquired companies ranged from specialty chemical manufacturing to trucking to rentals, pit-lining, and more. The legacy companies and the acquisitions ran a variety of different financial and ERP packages – none of which could scale past a hundred users or had the breadth of functionality the company needed without major customization. Rockwater was looking for a system to support its diverse functional needs but still remain agile and flexible enough to continue to grow with its aggressive plans. The company needed a platform that allowed for scale, would drive efficiency, and would become the foundation to differentiate its product offering. Attend this session to learn how Rockwater uses Dynamics AX & CRM to keep pace with their aggressive past and future growth. Photo courtesy of CAA Speakers
