Overview: Timely information on the position of a hurricane is critical in two respects: it helps to determine when to evacuate crews and ensure their safety, and when to return them to resume drilling and production. The illustrations presented in this article underscore the importance of the capability to disseminate pertinent data from head office to offshore platforms. Geographic information systems (GIS) help distribute information in a visual fashion that is understood quickly and easily, from the chief executive officer anywhere in the country to the tool-pusher on the platform at risk.
