Abstract

This paper depicts a pen picture of the archival of geophysical exploration data, both field and processed pertaining to Assam & Assam Arakan Basin of ONGC, Jorhat for preservation in digitized form in a state-of-art system ensuring faster accessibility and transferability to the different users. This also outlines the inherent limitations of the database that have posed problems in fulfilling the specific requirements of the clients at a faster pace. This paper has put forth a perceived model taking into consideration these limitations and evolved a system of information convergence catering to the desired customer requirements in a cost and time effective manner. The conceptualized model ensures minimization of human intervention, optimization of quality checks assuring data integrity, automation of reports generation and reduction of turn around time. The entire paper has been structured in the outlines of a database management system for effective and efficient decision making process. The model visualized in this paper can be customized to any other archival database of any E&P industry.
