On Thursday Oct 25th afternoon, we will run a free half day forum looking at how to get better data tools implemented and being used more quickly, so people are using them to collaborate and getting the full benefits of them.
There will be panel discussions on getting people collaborating and working better with big data tools, and doing more with data standards.
The panel discussions will be chaired by Julian Pickering, Director at Digital Oilfield Solutions and a past head of global digital drilling and completions at BP, and head of the facilities area of BP's Field of the Future.
