Case study
The China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) is one of China's biggest oil companies. To simultaneously meet the need for flawless presentation and versatile analysis of geophysical data, CNOOC was looking for the right display system to standardize on. As a trusted partner of China's oil and gas industry, CNOOC chose Schlumberger as the main system integrator, and Barco as the projection system developer for three separate installations in its Beijing headquarters and its Zhanjiang facility. “Barco has a firm grasp of the needs of today's geophysical industries,” says Mr. Xiong Zhiqiang, Security Supervisor of CNOOC, “The workflow advantages Barco's display systems offer are unparalleled – not to mention that their image quality is second to none.” Barco's display walls at CNOOC all share the same familiar Windows environment. “From engineers to managers, at whatever site they are, they can control the display system with mouse and keyboard, displaying several sources simultaneously in any mix of 2D and 3D. This is a huge advantage when we want to compare various data sets, or keep both video and data available at the same time. Barco delivered more than visualization,” concludes Mr. Xiong Zhiqiang, “Through their display technology, they have offered us the right environment for analysis, collaboration and presentation.”
