The Petrotechnical Open Software Corp issued a request for applications a couple of weeks ago, but interested parties had better hurry their submissions up – the closing date is April 26. Meanwhile, Phase 1A of the Pilot Project begins in London this week, and involves companies such as Elf Aquitaine and Repsol loading data about the North Sea into an Epicentre-based database to demonstrate that the system works. The database will run on a Sun Microsystems Inc Sparcstation 10. A third Phase 1 pilot may also take off in Latin America if the Petrotechnicals can find enough interested parties in the region.
