Intellog and the University of Calgary Form Research Partnership to Improve Search Applications for the Petroleum Industry

Intellog Inc. is pleased to announce an applied research partnership with Dr. Frank Maurer of the Department of Computer Science, at the University of Calgary. The objective of the research is to prototype application alternatives which will make access to industry-specific data simpler, more intuitive and more effective, and appealing to a much broader audience.

"Google® set the bar for how simple and easy a search application can be. We want to retain the simplicity of their approach, but provide additional industry-specific functions such as geographic and geological search capability" said Terence C. Gannon, Founder and President of Intellog.  "The key is fresh, innovative thinking.  By working with Dr. Maurer and the U of C, we believe we will have access to the expertise and research methodology to approach the problem from an entirely new perspective. We’re excited to see the results.

Intellog Announces the ‘Onramp’ Search Engine featuring Fully Indexed ERCB Directives, License, Drilling and Pipeline Reports

Intellog has released its ‘Onramp’ search engine and kicked it off with the fully indexed text of all ERCB Directives, as well as the fully indexed text of every Well Licenses Issued (ST1), Drilling Activity (ST49) and Pipeline Approval & Disposition Daily List (ST96) reports back to 2001. It can be accessed immediately and without charge at http://www.intellog.com/onramp

Onramp is a next generation search engine — like Google® and Yahoo®, Onramp makes finding information easy; enter a few search terms to identify the target of your search and the information meeting your criteria is displayed. But Onramp improves on the state-of-the-art in two important ways; it tailors the tools and content specifically to the energy industry and is capable of indexing information right down to the individual page. “The mainstream search engines have set the standard for what people expect when searching for information. So that was our jumping off point,” said Terence Gannon, Intellog’s Founder and CEO, “however, we are focused on the energy industry and its special, unique requirements. We feel we are able to deliver a significantly improved user experience in this area.” Gannon went on to say “industry professionals are stretched to the limit – they absolutely demand tools like Onramp to save them time and give them better search results.
