As a part of a virtual production metering implementation deploying Intellect 3.0 server technologies, the customer will also experience the first fully automated, self-constructing production analytics requiring no user involvement. The system will self-seek, find, model and predict critical production information to automatically create and maintain production virtual meters for a platform 250 miles offshore. |

In a quiet moment today, the first Intellect 3.0 Dedicated Server and Voluntary Computing Node (VCN) licenses shipped to a high-tech manufacturer in California for military battlefield applications. Teamed together, these two licenses constitute the infrastructure for large-capacity private distributed computing systems. |

Intellect 3.0 achieved an internal technical and customer milestone today by demonstrating the ability to perform both real-time in-mission and batch post-mission "Condition-Based Maintenance" assessment of battlefield devices for field decisionmaking regarding equipment predictive recovery action or readiness. This milestone includes the ability to perform human-guided predictive virtual sensing, sensor validation, anomaly detection, read-write data access to eight (8) different types of data stores, data cleansing / filtering, data synchronization of 5 types, data transformation and post-predictive processing all in a distributed multi-processing "virtual super-computing" environment. |

Using Process Intellect 2.0, the operators in a paper plant in British Columbia receive optimized recommendations on where to set their "ingredient levels" to stay within quality specifications, yet minimize expensive RM's. The result? 100% Return On Investment every 2 weeks. Cost controllers only dream of returns like that. |

An unspecified oil and gas company in Vietnam is currently considering a pilot implementation of iGLO (Intelligent Gas Lift Optimization) for more than 100 wells. A presentation was made by our CTO to their stake-holders on this date on-site in Vietnam, agreeing in principal to conducting a pilot on 20 wells. |

A virtual sensor pilot with a major international oil and gas company successfully concluded. The project involved generating on-line 24 production estimates of net oil, net gas and total gas production at a well and platform level every 60 seconds. The platform is located in deep-water in the Gulf of Mexico, some 250 miles offshore of Texas and Louisiana. The sensors integrated with an OSISoft PI Data Historian. |

In conjunction with a yet unnamed partner, a Process Intellect 2.0 system was put in place in a Canadian paper manufacturing facility to predict both machine-direction (MD) and cross-direction (CD) paper properties and give recommendations in real-time on how to make changes in feedstock formulation to target performance. This system integrates with a Honeywell PHD system via OPC. |
