LONDON, February 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Gastech Specialist Events, in association with the organisers of Gastech, is delighted to announce the launch of the E&P Tech: Data Management and Information Access Forum, to be held in Aberdeen, on 19 - 22 June, 2012. The Forum will help oil & gas companies to tap into the huge volume of unrealised value lying dormant and waiting to be harvested, by providing the latest and best information on proper data management, information access and security across vast decades of archived E&P data, as well as the huge volumes of real-time data now being compiled and made accessible to E&P teams.

E&P Information and data forms the very lifeblood of today's oil and gas company with streams of data relating to all aspects of exploration, drilling and production that flows through every artery in the corporate network. It is not only important to store and use this data appropriately, but equally essential to safeguard from hackers, intruders and cyber attackers. Companies must be extremely agile in creating disciplines like modelling and mapping, data loading, integration, architecture and implementing technology and solutions to ensure their valuable data is safely restored for business use.

C. Lwanga Yonke, Advisor to the Board of Directors, International Association for Information & Data Quality
Andrea Heekelaar- Adamova, PMP, Team Leader Information Business Solutions, Shell
Malcolm Bryce-Borthwick, Data & Information Manager, GDF SUEZ E&P UK Ltd
Sergey Fokin, Geosciences Data & Information Systems Manager, Total E&P Russia
