Changelog

Glex Energy 2.4.5

Release date: 06.12.2022

New features and new data:

TGS FMB integration

  • We have added an integration with TGS Facies Map Browser API, where licensors of FMB can fetch and visualize lithostratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy, sequences, environments, facies, and more.
  • The FMB data can be viewed alongside other welldata in Glex, like the NPD cores and core photos, or cuttings, composite logs and porosity and permeability data from Diskos.
  • The FMB stratigraphy can also be used as input when flattening on wells or using the cross plot in well view.

Porosity and permeability data

  • We have implemented a cleaned and QC’d porosity and permeability dataset from Diskos, that can be plotted in the well view.

New filter systems

  • Quick filters: Our regular filters have been renamed quick filters. These have pre set options to choose from, and are quick and easy to use.
  • Advanced filter (new): Users can now create and store their own filters using the Advanced filters window. Multiple attributes can be combined into an advanced filter. Created filters can be shared with other users. The functionality is still in beta and will be improved over the next months.
  • Stratigraphy filter (new): Users can now filter on wells using a stratigraphy filter.

Image export functionality

  • We have added new functionality to export images from Glex Energy. The user can select from a range of preset image sizes to export.

Various bugs and improvements:

  • Redesigned the login window and improved the general visual style of the user interface.
  • Made the UI size more dynamic, and fixed issues where the UI would get very small on high resolution screens (4k and up).

Glex Energy 2.4.0

Release date: 14.06.21

Multiple large changes across the entire application:

  • Data Access Layer: We have created a new data access layer which allows you to control who has access to content in Glex on a more granular level. There are several levels of access which can be assigned to any content; User, Organizational Unit, Role, Tenant, Public. This means that when you create a presentation, import a Prospect or upload a document, this new content will only be visible to you, and it's up to you to share it with other users within your organization (Cross-organizational permissions will be available in a later version).
  • Editable data-sources and layers: Users can now create, update and remove data-sources and layers, as well as administrating which data belongs to which data-source and layer. After you have imported a Prospect or Application Area you will have the option to assign it to either an existing data-source (given that you have the right permissions), or create a new one.
  • Data loading: We have completely redesigned the window where you load data into Glex. In the new window you can sort data-sources based on source and type, star your favourite data-sources, choose which layers to load from each data-source (f.ex. only load Exploration wells, and skip Production and Other wells), and view meta-data about the data-sources, like description, number of objects, owner, raw-files, etc.
  • New data-sources: We have added multiple new data-sources in Norway, UK and Australia.
  • Filters: We have added several new filters, and taken the first steps to allow users to create, save and share their own filters. We have also added a filter that finds all open APA acreage with an overlapping Prospect or Discovery.
  • Presentation: The presentation UI and UX has been updated.
