Training Opportunity: Webinar. Transforming Oil and Gass with High Speed Data Transport


Complimentary Webinar:
Transforming Oil and Gas with High Speed Data Transport
Technology has transformed the oil and gas industry by improving the capability to find, extract, and process data more efficiently than ever before. These technological improvements have led to an explosion of data that, in most cases, still relies upon physical shipments of tape and hard drives.  
Internet bandwidth has become more available worldwide, and when paired with the appropriate transport technology, data can be moved quickly and efficiently over WAN ( wide area network).
 

Join this free webinar to learn how Aspera’s patented fasp™ (Fast, Adaptive, Secure, Protocol) transport technology can leverage your existing WAN infrastructure to:
  • Achieve speeds hundreds of times faster than traditional protocols such as FTP
  • Deliver end-to-end security for your systems
  • Ensure 100% reliability and adaptive bandwidth control

This webinar is essential if you work in any of the following functions:

  • Data analysis
  • Production
  • Reservoir engineering
  • Petroleum Engineering
  • Field Development
  • Operations
  • Corporate strategy
  • IT
