Intelligent Search & Information Management
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is flourishing in business and industry, with a global market growth of 54% year-on-year predicted over the next three years. In the energy sector, AI-enabled software offers many benefits, including the potential to reduce energy waste, slash costs, and accelerate the use of renewable energy sources…

Sometimes it’s difficult to understand what data and information your company has available, where it’s located, its accessibility, quality and provenance. This often leads to end user frustration and more pressure on data and information management teams to find data. Flare have the tools and experience to classify, categorise and deduplicate your information…
They say that two heads are better than one, and ‘teaming up’ with an AI can increase the productivity and problem-solving capabilities of your team in a variety of business functions.
Here are the four foundational principles for nurturing a healthy AI system to support your business goals…
NASA define a Lesson Learned as “knowledge or understanding gained by experience”. It doesn’t matter if the experience is positive or negative, whether it was captured as part of a project or gained during business-as-usual process―the intent of a Lesson Learned is to provide a guiding hand to future business activities.
But in order to do that, you have to be able to find it…

Gaining Value and Insight from Unstructured Data.
You know you need to tag your documents so someone can find them in the future but would you like some help doing it?
Flare’s Autotag solution automatically does the clever stuff to tag documents with the correct descriptive taxonomic terms, such as document types, well names, field names or disciplines (and others). Tags are selected by interrogating file names, file paths and/or document content, ensuring that each document is stored with the appropriate metadata and enabling better search and retrieval results…
Almost all businesses are rich in data but, the larger the organisation, the more complex the information web can become. Data plays a crucial role in business development, as it allows leaders to make informed decisions based on tangible evidence, such as statistics and trends, rather than intuition or guesswork. But, when you are swamped by data, it can be difficult to see the wood for the trees and locate the right information you need, when you need it most.
The benefits of Machine Learning are extensive and promise to transform the way that businesses operate, with significant cost savings, enhanced productivity, and better efficiency likely once an AI project has been implemented. However, the effectiveness of ML depends heavily on the quality of the data, so why is data cleaning fundamental to successful AI data processing?
Communication is key in the world of business, and an established taxonomy can help bridge the gap of understanding within an industry. This is particularly true for the energy industry, including oil, gas and renewables, which is brimming with domain-specific terminology associated with complex business process…
Like all industries, the energy sector is subject to market forces. Changes in the underlying price of oil or gas, advances in technology opening up previously difficult-to-produce hydrocarbon deposits or just a simple drop in consumer demand as the world strives towards carbon neutrality can leave many years’ worth of work relegated to the corporate archives…
For a long time, knowledge workers have had to manually capture useful information contained in documents by transcribing it to corporate repositories.
If the reports are hardcopy, they may also have to use digitisation services to apply Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology and produce searchable PDF-type digital files before the information is manually captured…
Sometimes it’s difficult to understand what data and information your company has available, where it’s located, its accessibility, quality and provenance. This often leads to end user frustration and more pressure on data and information management teams to find data…
When business information is poorly organised or cluttered, it can be virtually impossible to find and access the data required to make informed business decisions. Data can be spread across multiple sources – files, servers, databases, emails, and even redundant legacy systems – making quick retrieval challenging and unnecessarily time-consuming. If data has large volumes of supporting documentation attached or is highly technical in nature, the problem is even greater…
Enterprise search software harnesses cutting-edge technology to locate information from within an enterprise system, including document management systems, intranets, emails, and file storage networks. Enterprise search offers several key benefits.
Time savings are one of the most important benefits of enterprise search software. Poor time management and protracted administrative tasks are significant obstacles to business productivity, driving down employee efficiency and harming financial growth. Consequently, time savings are a key factor in the surging popularity of the global enterprise search market, which is expected to reach $8.9bn (US) in value globally by 2024.
So, how can enterprise search software save time in your energy business?
Data plays a key role in modern business, but its accumulation can result in vast silos of information that are difficult to trawl through for employees and customers alike. Cutting-edge information management technology, in the form of intelligent search software, eliminates confused and cluttered data silos, enabling end-users to quickly and easily find the information they need….
Flare Solutions’ information management applications can ensure new information is assimilated smoothly and efficiently into your organisation after a merger or acquisition, with the following key factors facilitating the process:
Digital technology is embedded in almost every aspect of our lives, from the way we work and the places we live to the things we own. So it comes as no surprise that technology and the Digital Transformation will play a key role in how we transition to a low carbon world…
Finding the right words isn’t always easy. If you are new to a team or company, or the information you are looking for is obscure and difficult to locate, a traditional search tool may require you to use exactly the right keywords in your search term to produce results ― and even then, things may be a little hit and miss.
But not so with Intelligent Search…
You know you need to tag your documents so someone can find them in the future but would you like some help doing it?
Flare’s Autotag solution automatically does the clever stuff to tag documents with the correct descriptive taxonomic terms, such as document types, well names, field names or disciplines (and others)…

Intelligence Search delivers better search results based on relevancy, content and data analysis. These enhanced results are achieved by using Artificial Intelligence to understand and contextualise not only your corporate information repositories, but also the content of the search query and the user profile of the person making it.
If like many companies, your content is spread across multiple repositories, it can be a challenge to find something. You may struggle with the correct words / standards, or you may have to conduct multiple searches in different systems to be sure you’ve got everything you need. Conversely if you are an author, where should you put your magnum opus? #InformationManagement
Not too much news this week, so a great opportunity to wish everyone all the very best for 2022.
We’re not much for resolutions, here, but we do want to share more about our work delivering Intelligent Search, and how that can impact and benefit business.
Please reach out if you’d like to chat about what we do.
With Christmas rapidly approaching, its that time we traditionally gather our thoughts and take stock, ready for the New Year ahead.
Following the last couple of years unique events, it can sometimes feel difficult to get to the kernel of truth/facts. But, just like a squirrel can always find the right nut, Flare’s Intelligent Search can quickly focus in on relevant information.
As an added bonus, for those who weren’t lucky enough to pick up one of our fluffy (and very popular) squirrels at recent conferences, we have created a seasonal paper squirrel for you to download and make.
As the old saying goes: “Out of small acorns fat squirrels will grow”
So, we wish you all well for the forthcoming holidays, and for happiness and health as we head into 2022!
Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Technical Language Processing (TLP) are two connected innovations that allow us to get a deeper understanding and classification of search terms. These solutions are incredibly useful and empower businesses with better data analysis opportunities.
Many energy companies have enterprise search solutions that allow staff to try to find and retrieve data and information from across the business. However, do you understand how good (or bad) your search solution is? Does the search give you all the correct results? Are expected items missing? Do you get swamped by poorly matched search results? Does your search tool rank the results effectively?
Flare has an established methodology for assessing how good corporate search is. We look at ranking, precision and recall, providing you with a greater understanding of your company’s search tool and its results. We provide analysis and evidence on how it may be improved to give a better user search experience, better results and a lower level of risk.
SPDM 2021UK Online – 22nd to 26th November 2021This brand new conference is available to Society members across the globe and aims to cover data and information issues that we face in our current climate.
The presentation we will be doing at this event is schedule for 11:00 UK time on Friday 26th November:

Achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 will require many deep and broad changes to the way we live and work. Every sector will be affected by the transformation to some degree, and many aspects of today’s society will be unrecognisable within a few decades. Underlying much of this transformation, advanced digital technology will act as an indispensable enabler and catalyst, supporting activities ranging from research into new materials and limitless energy sources, to monitoring and controlling the heating systems in our homes.
