Existing Systems & Data• MMS does not manage Osage minerals!
• BIA Osage Agency has a system to manage Leasing and Royalty Accounting functions and data.
• BIA does not have an electronic database of Well Records.
• OU - NRIS has entered all Osage well completion reports into their system.
• EPA maintains basic data on UIC Wells, Inspections, and MIT’s.
• Map Coverages are available from OU and the OK Conservation Commission.

Objectives• Implement an automated system that will integrate
data on Production Wells, UIC Permits, UIC Wells, UIC Inspections, and Water Quality into a single comprehensive database.
• Implement a GIS that will attach to and utilize the well, permit, inspection, and water quality tables.
• Maximize use of existing production well, UIC, and GIS software and data.
• Use common PC hardware and system software to minimize costs and facilitate ease of use.

System Benefits• A comprehensive system database will permit
reports combining data currently stored in many disparate systems.
• Expedite processing of permits by using an online database of wells, inspections, and MIT’s
• GIS will provide maps for planning and analysis.
• Field Inspector notebook computers will contain complete and current data on Wells, MIT’s, and Inspections
• Facilitate analysis of relationships between Water Quality and UIC Operations.

Automated Inspection Scheduling Office Procedures• The Scheduler Module creates a table of all wells
with upcoming MIT’s.
• Synchronize Inspections of other wells in the area.
• Each well is assigned to an Inspector for a specified Inspection Date and Time.
• Print Notice-of Inspection Letters for Operators.
• Print Inspection Schedules for Inspectors.
• Create diskette of Upcoming Inspections to be loaded on Inspector notebooks.
