It develops its businesses (energy, energy services and environment) around a responsible growth model to take up the challenges of responding to energy needs, ensuring security of supply, fighting climate change and maximizing the use of resources. The Group employs 196,500 people worldwide and achieved revenues of €74,3 billion in 2007.
Flare Solutions has supplied the latest web based information management software to its UK subsidiary GDF SUEZ E&P UK Ltd for the past 4 years.
Flare’s ProCoM software is used for production monitoring, production reporting and gas contracts management of the Anglia Gas Field, an unmanned platform in the Southern North Sea, tied back via a 24km pipeline to the ConocoPhillips operated LOGGS facility, 90km offshore. Graphical dashboards allow early problem identification and intervention using well production data gathered every 15 minutes. In addition back-allocated production can be calculated by the software and electronic reports sent automatically to the BERR, the UK Regulator. The gas contracts module honours the production nominations made under the terms of the multiple gas contracts that are in place between the Anglia partners.
Flare’s E&P Catalog software is used as a single point to search through information held in a number of multiple repositories both on and offsite. The ordering and request module makes it easy for staff to find and retrieve what they need. Halliburton host Flare’s E&P Catalog product as part of an end-to-end information management service provision. In 2008 the contract was renewed for a further 3 years.
