In order to transfer workpack data between sites,
Coabis comes with its unique Transactions module. The Transactions
module enable users to send data to and from onshore and offshore
locations, with no loss of data integrity. The Transactions also
enable Clients to work with several sites (or vessels) simultaneously.
For example, Shell often work with 2 or 3 DSVs and ROVSVs concurrently
at separate locations – the Coabis Transactions module allows
them this flexibility.
The Coabis Transactions are used to send data
from remote vessels to their onshore offices regularly, even every
24 hours. This ensures that the onshore office, despite being disconnected
from the various vessel servers, is never more than 24 hours behind
what is happening offshore.
In the event that a serious anomaly is discovered,
a Transaction can be sent onshore within minutes of the anomaly
being found.
Coabis data is transacted between locations
using several methods, dependent upon the amount of data being transferred
–e-mail, CD and disk being the most popular options. All Coabis
data is transacted – results, anomalies, photographs, video
clips, drawings, etc.
The Transactions are a unique function to Coabis.
Many of our Clients were heavily involved with the development of
Transactions, based on their intensive use of the feature, particularly
where they have multiple vessels using Coabis simultaneously.
Should Coabis be run over a Wide Area Network
(WAN), the requirement for Transactions becomes less important.
In this scenario, data entered over the WAN is immediately available
to all parties also connected to the WAN. This configuration is
used by Talisman Energy for their topsides structural data-entry,
making Coabis available to offshore personnel via a Citrix application
farm.
