The UK’s National Data Repository (NDR) has been automated so that well reports, logs and other digital files are more readily available to industry. The new Application Programming Interface (API) provides access to more than 4.8 terabytes of information and allows users to connect to certain data types and then download them from the NDR.
This means that API users no longer need to search for, download and manage available data. They can have automated delivery of data to their organization’s systems and devices without the need to log into the NDR.
The UK Oil and Gas Authority has reported that 20 companies have signed up to use the NDR API, including Neptune Energy, which was the first to use it. It has downloaded more than 650,000 files in eight days; achieving what all NDR users combined had managed in the first five months of the year using the established user-driven download method.
