Cenova 

A unified approach to managing oil and gas data, infrastructure, and software licenses.

FOUNDATION OF THE CENOVA ECOSYSTEM

Cenova Command— the first and foundational layer

Cenova Command is the starting point of the Cenova ecosystem — the foundational control layer every other module builds on. It establishes a single, trusted view of your technical data estate, so domain modules for Resource, License, RE and Spatial can plug in on top of a consistent catalogue, classification and governance foundation. Adopt Cenova Command first, then extend into the wider ecosystem as your needs evolve. 

 

THE PROBLEM

Technical data estates have grown in silos

Energy companies manage increasingly large and fragmented technical data estates. Over time, data, applications, infrastructure and governance systems have grown in silos across subsurface, wells, seismic, models and IT platforms.

  • Limited visibility across the full technical landscape

  • Rising storage and cloud costs

  • Duplicate data and inconsistent data quality

  • Unclear ownership and manual governance processes

WHY CENOVA 

Know what you have, where it lives, what's changing

Cenova establishes a trusted control layer so organisations can govern, optimise and act on their data with confidence — without moving a single file.

Immediate visibility

A single pane of glass across files, applications and storage — enterprise-wide visibility in days, not quarters.

1
Cost & waste reduction

Surface duplication, orphaned data and inefficient storage — reducing storage, licence and infrastructure spend across the estate.

7
Risk & compliance

Consistent classification, tagging and audit foundations — ready for governance, M&A and divestiture conversations.

8
AI & ML readiness

An indexed, tagged, attributed catalogue of your technical data is the foundation every AI initiative needs.

HOW CENOVA WORKS

One platform. Two views of your estate

Start broad with enterprise visibility, then go deeper where it adds value.

Enterprise view

A consolidated overview of data, applications and infrastructure across the organisation. One shared, consistent understanding of the technical environment.

  • Enterprise-wide inventory across data, systems and locations
  • Visibility across domains without moving or duplicating data
  • A common reference point for teams and stakeholders
  • A foundation for governance, reporting and further analysis

Domain view

Deeper, domain-specific insight where more detailed understanding is required. Supporting day-to-day operational and governance needs.

  • Analysis of ownership and responsibility
  • Identification of duplication and quality issues
  • Insight into data lifecycle and usage patterns
  • Alignment with internal standards and governance frameworks

An enterprise-wide catalogue of your technical data, without migration

Scan. Catalogue. Analyze

 

 

Cenova's indexing engine builds a file-level catalogue — name, path, extension, size, owner, create/modify dates and attribution context — across every agreed source.

  • Indexing across file shares, application projects and cloud storage

  • Manual tagging and full tag management (create, update, delete, merge)

  • Dashboards for duplication, growth, ownership and access patterns over time

  • Export, role-based access and audit logs for governance and reporting

What Cenova includes

1
Indexing

Scans and inventories files across storage to build an enterprise-wide catalogue with file-level metadata and attribution context.    

2
Search & discovery

Fast text search across subsurface and application data, filtered by type, tag, application or attributes such as name, path and owner.

3
Tagging

Manual tagging and full tag management, create, update, delete, merge with filtering and grouping for follow-up.

4
Analytics and dashboard

File counts, disk usage, duplication indicators, change over time, ownership and access state, plus dedicated wells and seismic views.

5
Export

Export catalogue and reporting outputs to support reporting, sharing and downstream workflows.

6
Access and auditability

Admin and Standard User roles, integration with Keystone for consistent login, and audit logs for actions performed within Cenova.

A STAGED APPROACH

Start with a Pre-Assessment, then move into core reporting

Begin with a hyper-fast baseline of your estate. From there, move into Core Reporting and start removing duplication in seismic and well data — with an ongoing, time-based view of your environment.

STEP 1 - PRE ASSESSMENT

A hyper-fast baseline of your estate

A hyper-fast, high-level overview produced by Cenova — the first step in understanding what exists on the system, before moving into deeper reporting 

  • Establish an initial baseline: scale, accessibility and obvious issues
  • Right-size the licence and accelerate commercial scoping
  • A practical door-opener into broader reporting and ongoing monitoring

1

STEP 2 - CORE REPORTING

An operational control view, over time


With the baseline in place, Core Reporting turns inventory into a repeatable, time-based view of the technical data environment — so you can start removing duplication in seismic and well data. 

  • Identify and remove duplication across seismic and well data
  • Track change over time — additions, removals and growth trends
  • Consistent reporting shared across Data, IT and Storage stakeholders 

HOW IT FITS TOGETHER

Foundation, modules, and identity—one stack

Every Cenova deployment starts with the foundation, then layers on the capabilities that match your use case.
