Since 2006 Schlumberger Information Solutions have managed the CDA Well DataStore, the UKCS national data repository for well data. In August 2009 CDA was extended to include, for the first time, Post Stack seismic data.

Schlumberger Information Solutions was awarded the contract to manage the Seismic DataStore, with a solution based on Schlumberger?s industry leading Prosource Seismic software to store and manage the data, together with a web delivered DecisionPoint interface.

The Schlumberger solution has been designed to enable a step-change in the quality and availability of UKCS seismic data; delivering high-quality data in hours/days rather than weeks/months.

Users now have access through a single web based interface for UKCS well and seismic information. The intuitive user interface enables companies to manage all aspects of their seismic data online with the direct access and download of the data by entitled users.
