Microsoft partners with the energy industry in the global transition to a more secure, equitable, and sustainable future. To support this transformative journey, we\u2019re pleased to announce\u00a0the\u00a0general availability of Azure Data Manager for Energy<\/a>. Designed to help energy companies accelerate digital innovation, Azure Data Manager for Energy is an open, fully-managed OSDU\u00ae Data Platform service powered by the Microsoft Cloud<\/a>. The offering integrates with almost any dataset and source, enables management of compute-intensive workloads at global scale, and quickly ingests data for analytics and decision-making. Azure Data Manager for Energy\u00a0is developed in alignment with the requirements of the\u00a0OSDU Technical Standard for open-source innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With energy demand expected to increase by nearly 50 percent over the next 30 years, companies are accelerating innovation to meet the need for safe, reliable, and sustainable energy.1<\/sup> Until more alternative, cost-effective solutions are available for energy operations, manufacturing and other industrial processes, companies will continue to look for ways to offset carbon emissions with initiatives such as carbon capture and storage (CSS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While tackling these complex issues, energy firms must also meet business goals. That means enabling growth and modernizing infrastructure by leveraging data to gain insights and create efficiencies. To balance priorities, energy organizations worldwide are using Microsoft\u2019s cloud, data, and AI technologies to create a digital foundation for a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powering digital transformation with Azure Data Manager for Energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Built to meet the needs of our global energy customers, Azure Data Manager for Energy is available in multiple Azure regions and expanding quickly to full, global availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re also excited to offer two tiers\u2014a standard tier to run high-scale, performance-driven production workloads, and a developer tier designed for partners and end users looking for more flexibility and speed in building new applications. Partners and customers can start with the developer tier to evaluate and plan implementation, accelerate application development, and test OSDU Data Platform applications. When ready to transform their operational environment, energy operators can use the standard tier to take advantage of enterprise grade, service level agreement (SLA)-backed performance for optimizing seismic, wellbore, and reservoir workflows. Learn more in the announcement of the Azure Data Manager for Energy developer tier<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eliminating data silos with easy interoperability across an extensive global partner ecosystem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our global partner ecosystem is fundamental to accelerating innovation across the energy sector. With Azure Data Manager for Energy, customers can speed toward goals by taking advantage of easy interoperability across an extensible application ecosystem. They can integrate virtually any dataset, application, or cloud service while leveraging the subsurface tools they already work with from SLB, Halliburton, and many others. To deploy OSDU Data Platform applications faster with fewer resources, energy companies can also work with their choice of systems integrators to help prepare and ingest data into Azure Data Manager for Energy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are pleased to be working with many leading energy partners on Azure Data Manager for Energy and continue adding others to our extensive partner ecosystem, including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enabling carbon capture and storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Collaboration will also enable and accelerate the transition to a net-zero economy. Built in partnership with SLB, a global technology company driving energy innovation, Azure Data Manager for Energy combines extensive domain expertise from SLB with Microsoft innovations in cloud technologies and AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out-of-the-box compatibility with industry-leading SLB technologies for subsurface reservoir and CO2 storage assessment will accelerate time-to-market. With the same tools that energy companies use for subsurface interpretation and modeling, customers can run workflows for CO2 storage site assessment and monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SLB CO2 subsurface workflows work with Azure Data Manager for Energy to enable CO2 storage capacity assessment and long-term storage integrity evaluation. Capabilities include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
