  • The Recovery and Preservation of Critical Exploration Datasets for a Large Multinational Oil Company
    The Recovery and Preservation of Critical Exploration Datasets for a Large Multinational Oil Company Guy C. Holmes – BSc, MBA Chief Executive Officer SpectrumData Suite 1, 14 Brodie Hall Drive, BENTLEY WA 6102 [email protected] Introduction In February of 2002, a large multinational oil company requested that a project be undertaken to consolidate, and in many cases reconstruct, a large dataset consisting of approximately 80,000 original magnetic tapes of various ages, formats, media types, and condition. The collection contained data acquired during 30 years of oil and gas exploration in over 50 different countries. The project requirements were unique for a number of reasons. The most interesting and challenging of which was that this was the second attempt at performing the project for the company due to the failure of a first attempt by another party. This failed attempt left portions of the data in jeopardy of being permanently lost, corrupted or disassociated from their invaluable metadata. The project involved reading the tapes, consolidating the data into logical data sets, converting the various data types to an industry standard format, and outputting the data to a new set of high density data cartridges in triplicate. The vast majority of data in this collection was in the form of seismic survey data which is the principal exploration methodology used in oil and gas exploration. The tape collection consisted of the following tape types: − 9 track reel to reel tape − 3480 cartridge − 3490E cartridge − 8mm Helical Scan Cartridge − 4mm DDS DAT Cartridges − Digital Linear Tape (DLT) − A variety of smaller, less known media types including DC2120’s, DC6150, and 7 track magnetic tapes.

  • How Much Information Is Produced in the World Each Year
    About the Project Senior Researchers: Peter Lyman and Hal R. Varian Research Assistants: James Dunn, Aleksey Strygin, Kirsten Swearingen This study is an attempt to measure how much information is produced in the world each year. We look at several media and estimate yearly production, accumulated stock, rates of growth, and other variables of interest. If you want to understand what we've done, we offer different recommendations, depending on the degree to which you suffer from information overload: Heavy information overload: the world's total yearly production of print, film, optical, and magnetic content would require roughly 1.5 billion gigabytes of storage. This is the equivalent of 250 megabytes per person for each man, woman, and child on earth. Moderate information overload: read the Sound Bytes and look at the Charts illustrating our findings. Normal information overload: read the Executive Summary. Information deprived: read the detailed reports by clicking on the contents to your left. Or download the entire Web site as a PDF file. (It is about 100 pages long.) This study was produced by faculty and students at the School of Information Management and Systems at the University of California at Berkeley. We gratefully acknowledge financial support from EMC. We have put "[???]" in the text where we had to make "questionable" assumptions. If you have suggestions, corrections, or comments, please send email to [email protected]. We view this as a "living document" and intend to update it based on such contributions. © 2000 Regents of the University of California http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/how-much-info/ [11/10/2000 2:11:17 PM] Executive Summary Abstract The world produces between 1 and 2 exabytes of unique information per year, which is roughly 250 megabytes for every man, woman, and child on earth.
