1. A method of facilitating collaboration between users at an oil well site and users at a remote location, comprising:
- collecting multiple types of oil well data at the oil well site to form an aggregated data;
conforming the aggregated data to a standard format;
storing the aggregated data in a data aggregation server at the oil well site in the standard format, wherein the data aggregation server comprises a data repository having a set of analysis tools configured to analyze the aggregated data;
mapping one or more of the oil well data with one or more descriptions associated therewith;
storing the mapping in a knowledge base at the oil well site, wherein the mapping is used to conform unknown oil well data to the standard format;
storing a copy of the aggregated data and the mapping on a local server at the remote location, wherein the local server mirrors the data aggregation server;
allowing a first user at the oil well site to;
access the aggregated data on the data aggregation server; and
analyze the aggregated data on the data aggregation server using the set of analysis tools;
allowing a second user at the remote location to;
access the aggregated data stored on the local server; and
analyze the aggregated data on the local server using the set of analysis tools.

Abstract
Methods and systems facilitate collaboration between users at an oil well site and users at a remote location. Multiple types of oil well data are collected at the oil well site to form aggregated data. The aggregated data is stored in a data aggregation server at the oil well site. Users at the oil well site and users at the remote location are allowed to access the aggregated data on the data aggregation server using a standard data format.

7. A method for controlling a drilling operation for an oilfield, the oilfield having a wellsite with a drilling tool advanced into a subterranean formation with geological structures and reservoirs therein, comprising:
-
collecting multiple types of oil well data at the oil well site to form an aggregated data that conforms to a standard format; storing the aggregated data in a data aggregation server at the oil well site, wherein the data aggregation server comprises a data repository having a set of analysis tools configured to analyze the aggregated data; mapping one or more of the oil well data with one or more descriptions associated therewith; storing the mapping in a knowledge base at the oil well site, wherein the mapping is configured to conform unknown oil well data to the standard format; storing a copy of the aggregated data and the mapping on a local server at a remote location, wherein the local server mirrors the data aggregation server; allowing a first user at the oil well site to; access the aggregated data on the data aggregation server; and analyze the aggregated data on the data aggregation server using the set of analysis tools; allowing a second user at the remote location to; access the aggregated data stored on the local server; and analyze the aggregated data on the local server using the set of analysis tools; controlling drilling operations based on the aggregated data. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
