1. A networked computer system for allowing access to information pertaining to a plurality of hydrocarbon wells located at one or more production properties, comprising:

  • at least one server, comprising;

    at least one memory resource for storing files containing data pertaining to the plurality of hydrocarbon wells located at the one or more production properties;

    at least one processor unit coupled to the at least one memory resource; and

    program memory coupled to the one or more central processing units, for storing a plurality of software modules, comprising;

    a geographical information system (GIS) software module, including program instructions that, when executed by one of the processor units, cause the at least one server to access the at least one memory resource to obtain geographical data regarding wells and production properties;

    a collaboration portal software module, including program instructions that, when executed by one of the processor units, cause the at least one server to display, to one or more system users, a web site at which the system users can access the GIS software module to view a geographical representation of a region of the earth, including one or more wells or production properties, and through which the system users can access a data file associated with a selected one of the wells or production properties; and

    a client workstation for receiving user inputs and for providing output to a user, comprising;

    an interface coupling the at least one workstation to the at least one server;

    an input device for receiving inputs from a system user;

    an output display;

    a processor; and

    program memory, coupled to the one or more central processing units, for storing a client computer program including program instructions that, when executed by the processor, allow the system user to interact with the collaboration portal software module.
