Secure E&P Data Platform With Filtered Marketing Packages
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The E&P industry lacks an organized marketplace for drilling companies to discover and access valuable E&P data, and existing data dissemination methods face challenges in security and control over data sharing.
Innovation Solution
A data distribution platform that filters high fidelity data into marketing data packages, allowing consumers to access data for analysis without downloading it, through a secure subscription-based system.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If high fidelity E&P data is made accessible to drilling companies, then data utility and value are improved, but data security and vendor control deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments E&P data into multiple fidelity levels: high fidelity data retained by vendors and low fidelity marketing data made publicly accessible. This segmentation allows the system to provide useful data to drilling companies while maintaining security by preventing access to the complete high fidelity datasets, thus resolving the contradiction between data utility and data security.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a data distribution platform as an intermediary between data vendors and drilling companies. This platform automatically serves marketing data packages to consumers and facilitates controlled access to high fidelity data through vendor-approved mechanisms, eliminating the need for direct data sharing while maintaining both security and utility.
2Ease of operation
If an organized marketplace is created for E&P data, then data discovery capability is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service mechanisms where the data distribution platform automatically performs data package creation, filtering, and distribution without requiring manual intervention. Vendors simply upload their data, and the system automatically generates marketing data packages and manages marketplace operations, reducing infrastructure complexity while improving data discovery.
Solution Approach 2:
The data distribution platform performs multiple functions within a single system: data storage, automated filtering, package generation, marketplace management, and access control. This multi-functionality consolidates what would otherwise require separate complex systems into one unified platform, improving ease of use while managing complexity.
3Reliability
If marketing data packages are created by filtering high fidelity data, then data security is improved, but data processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-filtering high fidelity data into marketing data packages in advance, before any consumer requests the data. This upfront processing eliminates the need for real-time filtering when data is accessed, significantly reducing data processing time at the point of use while maintaining security through the pre-established filtering rules.
Data Source
AI summary
A method including receiving, at a data distribution platform, a selection of a data package comprising a high fidelity data package. The method also includes filtering, automatically by a filtering application of the data distribution platform, the high fidelity data package to form a marketing data package. Filtering includes removing sufficient data from the high fidelity data package such that the marketing data package is a marketing data package. The method also includes publishing the marketing data package within the data distribution platform.
