HOUSTON, TX, May 1, 2003 – R7 Solutions’ announced today the licensing of GeoRoom 1.0 by Hess Corporation (NYSE: HES) in order to catalog and centralize management of oil and gas exploration and production geophysical and project data throughout the worldwide enterprise.

GeoRoom, R7 Solutions’ new flagship business process management product that includes mapping and a powerful data integration engine, will be used to provide a web-based, dynamic, clickable map linked to all of Hess Corporation’s geophysical and other exploration data.
“The project’s goal is to unify their E&P portfolio management process so that they can focus on getting their work done, and not looking for their data,” said R7 Solutions CEO, K. Lawrence Epperson. “Some of these data sets were difficult to capture and are extremely valuable. By making them available throughout the organization, they can leverage existing investment to a degree that simply isn’t possible with their existing, conventional cataloging and searching processes.”
The new product, GeoRoom, is targeted at companies that require widespread access to geographically organized information by casual users without the expense and effort of integrating multiple back-end systems. Entirely web-based, the system runs on ESRI’s ArcIMS server, and comes with a variety of document management options and integration toolkits. By using a central metadata database to relate third-party document management, relational database, and legacy data systems to the spatial database, GeoRoom allows a company to bridge the gap between its many silos of enterprise and project data.
