Project OverviewThe Project Overview provides a brief summary of the entire Project Charter. It may provide a brief history of the events that led to the project, an explanation of why the project was initiated, and a description of project intent and identifies the original Project Owner.
This project was officially transitioned from Dana Elkind to Pamela Blair on May 10, 2006. The transition summary and all project artifacts for reference are located http://wmstutadmin01/EPSC/EPITProjects/default.aspx .
Upon conversation with Chris Graves, Alan Delp, the scope of the project charter was unclear and required re-clarification. It was decided that the project charter would include a business case to determine feasibility of moving forward with the OpenWells Implementation. This Project Charter intends to document the business case for moving forward with the replacement of the DIMS application with OpenWells before year end, 2006, as DIMS will need to be eventually replaced given Landmark’s decision to discontinue this product and upgrade to OpenWells. The project charter will address:
Tasks and activities required to implement OpenWells
Gap analysis identifying current functionality of DIMS vs. OpenWells
OpenWells enhancement list
Time and cost needed to implement OpenWells
Risk & Mitigation Table
Summary and Recommendation
LOE: The planning phase of this project was initiated by a Letter of Engagement (LOE), submitted by Dana Elkind and dated April 4, 2006, whose objective was:
Identify the working relationship between Williams and Landmark that would include each group’s role, action items, time line and cost
A review of the size of the project, including data quality assurance, modification of the user interface to match Williams work methods, creation of output reports, the conversion process, training, and continuing support
Costs and benefits for the proposed upgrade/replacement
The project owner for this initiative is Alan Delp, Manager of Systems &Facilities.
Opportunity StatementThe Opportunity Statement identifies the most significant business reasons for performing a project. This may include a vision for future project deliverables, a list of anticipated features, a list of expected advantages and the identification of the intended customers for project deliverables.
The business currently uses DIMS used for operations reporting, communications and data management By implementing the Open Wells application, improvement can be realized in the following areas:
OpenWells Page 1 04/15/23Project Charter Version 2.3
WIT Resource Group
Improved User Interface Improved Field Office Transfer Utilization of Crystal Reports to create output reports Improved iWell Files interface Improved security A common database schema that is shared with other Landmark products that include DSS, Compass, and
TOW. One database for all these applications means improved data integrity and the integration of modules for the sharing of information
Impact StatementImpact Statement identifies the influence the project may have on the business, operations, schedule, other projects, current technology and other applications.

Risk & Mitigation MatrixRisk Impact
(H,M,L)
Risk Mitigation StrategyMitigated
Not Mitigated
1. Mapping documentation that identifies current DIMS data flow against proposed data flow diagram to be facilitated by OpenWells has not been submitted to Landmark.
H This documentation must be submitted and made a part of the project plan and a deliverable to minimize the level of effort identified by Landmark in the project plan for system configuration.
Not Mitigated
2. Support for current DIMS system is diminishing
H Manage relationship with Landmark as they will fix critical defects if they impact production or revenue; unable to identify data to clarify bugs/defects that have not been addressed by Landmark and are impacting drilling activities
Mitigated:Landmark has not identified any development or bug fix issues and has committed to working with the Product Manager in addressing Severity 1 level fixes that are deemed to be service or revenue impacting.
3. Growth in drilling reduces ability to support current client base and surveillance tasks with DIMS system
H Migration to OpenWells has more scalability and can accommodate increasing volumes; need to identify impacts that have resulted in application’s (DIMS) inability to support current growth trends
Not Mitigated
4. Inadequate business resources available to ensure business requirement criteria is met
H Identify business lead for verification and clarification of configuration and customization criteria that will be the basis of the business requirements.
Mitigated:Deanna Morgan has been designated by Ty Watson as the business lead.
5. IT will be perceived as the driver of this project and will have sole accountability for the success and/or failure of this project
H Business has agreed to take ownership in support of this project; business team will partner with IT to ensure the success of this initiative.
Mitigated:Met with Ty Watson and Eric Kolstad and both have agreed to take ownership in the success of this implementation if the direction to proceed is agreed to by IT upper management.
6. Business drivers unclear to justify project
H Meet with key stakeholders and understand/document the business drivers for implementation of OpenWells.
OpenWells Page 3 04/15/23Project Charter Version 2.3

Risk Impact (H,M,L)
Risk Mitigation StrategyMitigated
Not Mitigated
7. Implementation tasks will not have input from the business users to ensure successful configuration and customization of application
H Lead appointed by the business will be responsible for gathering requirements to support customization and configuration efforts.
Mitigated: See Exhibit “D” of this document.
8. Inadequate identification of workflow requirements to support EDM can result in Vendor directed configuration instead of workflow generated by data distribution requirements as identified by Williams which would add additional consulting cost to Williams
H Identify and document workflow requirements to support EDM data management prior to implementation effort. Business lead has prior implementation experience with OpenWells.
Not Mitigated
9. Non-identification of best tool or application to meet Williams requirements for drilling/completions application to ensure product is best choice.
H Investigate viable options in the industry that will meet Williams’ requirements; both business and IT, for a drilling/completions application.
Not Mitigated
10. Additional wells/data conversion efforts by Landmark if implementation is delayed
L Data conversion not based on quantity of information but integrity of information; the way the information is entered into DIMS today will not change if implementation is delayed per Landmark Product Manager
Mitigated:Per Landmark, no impact as it relates to the addition of Wells and data as to the implementation date.
11. Data Assessment and Evaluation will have to be redone if implementation is delayed
L Assessment will be of use up to one (1) year from now because assessment was not based on time data was assessed but the quality of the data that was evaluated according per Landmark Product Manager
Mitigated:Assessment good for one year from last assessment. Will expire November, 2007.

Project ApproachProject Approach identifies the general strategy for completing the project and explains any methods or processes that will be used during the project.
User Group Formation – A user group comprised of DIMS users from CBM, Piceance and Production Services teams:
Provide design input and requirements as necessary for finalization of report customization
Provide Business acceptance criteria for all deliverables
Perform User Acceptance Testing
OpenWells Page 12 04/15/23Project Charter Version 2.3
WIT Resource Group
Provide input for prioritization of future software releases
Project Management Methods: The following Project Management Methods will be employed:
Project Repository to store project documentation in a central location
Change Management Control
Issue Logging and Tracking
Status Reporting
Proposed Project Timing:
o The original project plan submitted by Landmark does not include User Acceptance Testing (UAT) that identified 221 days from start to finish which is 10 months and 3 weeks. The added time to allow for UAT activities including test case generation and acceptance has extended this time from the original projection of 221 days to one (1) full year.

Project OrganizationThe Project Organization identifies the roles and responsibilities needed to create a meaningful and responsive structure that enables the project to be successful. This Project Organization must identify the people who will play each assigned role.
A Project Manager is also required for each project. This person is responsible for initiating, planning, executing and controlling the total project effort. Members of the Project Team report to the Project Manager for project assignments and are accountable to the Project Manager for the completion of their assigned work. The Project Manager for this project is Pamela Blair.
A Project Team is assembled for each effort to perform the actual work of the project. This team represents a collection of skills and opinions that are considered significant to the success of the project. Team members are commonly selected from many internal and external organizations. The core Project Team members for this project are:
Responsibilities for project team members are specified in each cell as
R - Responsible (produces deliverable)
A - Accountable (ensures quality of deliverable)
C - Consulted
I - Informed
Note there can be only one resource accountable (A) for each deliverable.
The major distinction between accountable and responsible:
OpenWells Page 13 04/15/23Project Charter Version 2.3
WIT Resource Group
A = Accountable = The person who is ultimately held accountable for the deliverable/task/document if it is not completed.
R = Responsible = The person who has been given the task of producing (writing) the deliverable. This person although responsible for producing the deliverable may not be held accountable if the deliverable is not produced.
There is always only one resource with the ”A” (accountable). Therefore, only one person is held accountable if the task/deliverable is not completed. There may be a number of resources that are responsible for a deliverable. It is possible that a resource may be both responsible and accountable for a deliverable, for example the project manager is both accountable and responsible for the project charter.

Training Breakdown by “Type”
1. Role: “Well Administrator” responsible for gathering the necessary information to initiate the well in the system. A few
of these will input a little bit additional data, but do not need the full input training as those in group #2.
2. Role: “Field Input” Rig foremen (drilling/completions/workovers) that enter the daily data as required and will be
defined to them in training.
3. Role: “Office Input” Occasional input/corrections to the data, but not the bulk of the data entry. This is more
along the lines of the additional data the Well Admins (group #1) input, but this group will not be initiating wells into the system.
4. Role: “’Office’ Users” Only accesses the data that is in the system. (Most likely the majority of the “office” users).
** Groups 1, 3, and 4 will also have Data Analyzer) to access data.
5. A fifth group may be considered for more advanced querying with a requirement that they be to one of the above training sessions and understand the basics of querying.
Groups 1-4 would all have a basic overview of the entire system (excluding the system administration functions) at the beginning of their training session. Generally, training for each specific group is ½ to 1 day.

Summarization of Business Drivers and Business Resource
RequirementsThe purpose of this communication is to document the business drivers in support of the OpenWells upgrade/implementation referenced by the Project Charter submitted May 23, 2006.
The following table represents business user/stakeholder input as it relates to business drivers to support implementation of this project prior to year-end 2006. The information from the users was submitted by Dana Elkind and Alan Delp.
Functional Requirement Business Driver Business User
Shall be configurable and scaled to support any field operating environment to facilitate operations reporting and ad-hoc query needs
OpenWells supports more data fields and can provide more details than DIMS. OpenWells can be enhanced by Landmark based on User Group requests or paid customer requests. A request has been made to add a survey report to rate completion activity by vendor. This report could cost Williams $100,000 est. to create; the resulting information could save Williams 1% on the cost of frac jobs in Piceance or about $1,600,000 per year. ((Cost per frac $60,000 X 1%) x avg. number of fracs per well 6.5 x 420 wells per year). If we do not move to OpenWells we can not add the survey.

Users shall be able to configure what data is captured.
DIMS can have fields grayed on, but they stay on the report from. OpenWells only displays what is required to fill in. This feature can save the field operator 5 to 10 minutes per day

screen to be put in order of need and importance. Placing the most used forms at the top of the tool bar reduces the amount of time required to find and use reports.
Users shall be able to configure what data is automatically carried over from one report to the next.
Time savings. 5 minutes a day can save $156,000 in a year for just field drillers. More if we include completions work.

OpenWells Upgrade Features
Reports can be created, scheduled and distributed automatically
OpenWells has a feature to automate this activity. The savings would include 5 users saving 1.5 hours per day = $78,000/year

Field Office Transfer features:
Includes updated picklist information in transfer
Can integrate into Outlook and/or use FTP
Send confirmation reports to sender
OpenWells has a much better way to transfer data from the field to the office and the transfer includes more information, confirmations, and configuration features.
The savings for the field would be 10 minutes / day or $312,000/year.

Tighter integration with directional drilling applications i.e. Compass
15 minutes saved by not entering duplicate data for each of 460 wells each year at $60/hour. $6,900 saved each year.
