MOORE Resource Systems
Introduces
PipeASD Product

Campbellville, ON, Canada, March 18, 2004 - Moore Resource Systems, part of Enghouse Systems Limited's (TSX:ESL) Asset Management Division, is pleased to announce the forthcoming release of their PipeASD tool.

PipeASD is the Alignment Sheet Definition module of MOORE's PipeWORKS suite of applications. PipeASD is tailor made for Operators within the oil and gas pipeline industry that require a method for creating, modifying or deleting alignment sheet definitions used by PipeASG or other alignment sheet generators. PipeASD provides access to your existing alignment data set and allows for graphical viewing of existing data stored within PODS™ version 3.x and above.

PipeASD is a flexible VB based application that interacts with AutoCAD Map to create or edit alignment sheet based data within a PODS™ version 3.x database. Alignment sheet definition information is presented in a graphical format to allow for easier viewing and manipulation. Additional data sets such as Geographic Data Technology (GDT) data may also be overlaid as background data within the CAD environment to assist with the maintenance of cultural data sets or document types associated with the alignment sheet. PipeASD is a highly configurable application that allows users to adjust for Metric or Imperial units, sheet size and different data sources.

PipeASD is a tool that will help your business:

  • Reduce the time required to update and maintain alignment sheet definitions.
  • Ensure timely creation of alignment sheets for distribution.
  • Achieve efficient interaction with your relational data model thereby improving your entire data maintenance process.

PipeASD is the ideal compliment to existing solutions such as alignment sheet generators so businesses can define their own construction or as-built alignment sheets.

PipeASD benefits:

  • Reduce design and construction costs with improved methods of providing access to alignment sheet data.
  • Improve staff productivity by providing a user-friendly tool for defining alignment sheet data.

It is important for pipeline data to be accessed in a timely and accurate fashion and available to all those who need to access it. Once alignment sheet definitions are created, data becomes readily available for reporting via an alignment sheet generator such as PipeASG.

PipeWORKS is a suite of applications, which includes PipeASD, PipeASG, PipeEDIT, PipeMAP, PipeNET and PipeNPMS.
