Product Updates

Hello we have very good news for you, Seismic Service reached Limited Availability. What does it mean for you? A more mature and resilient Software as a Service offering supported by Cognite, and only one step away from being general available. In this particular case the main difference between Limited and General availability relies on the specific cloud support vs a cloud agnostic offer. Why was the Seismic service built? Because seismic data is a key asset for many companies in the Oil and Gas industry, and it represents a big portion of the data a company might own. The reason for this is that seismic data by nature is very large and complex to store and access quickly. In Cognite, we built the Seismic Service that allows you to store data in the cloud, search for a particular seismic line and stream it in seconds. All these functionalities are powered by CDF. Seismic Service enables you to:  Have centralized access for 2D and 3D post stack seismic data Full control on who access the data through entitlement management Cut and download on demand Smart resource usage during data ingestion The Seismic Service provides full flexibility to build your own workflows to manage your seismic data on top of CDF, by exposing it through a Python SDK and a GRPC API. Feel free to let us know if you think this service might be a good fit in your business or if you have any questions related to it. On behalf of the entire Seismic team, we hope the service is beneficial to all of you.  Elka Sierra - Group Product Manager for Subsurface (Oil & Gas vertical)  

Images contain essential information required for optimizing operations. This release of Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) introduces image and video management, where you can upload, organize, and explore the image and video data and add annotations to the images. With the new image contextualization API, you can detect assets tags, text and people using industry-relevant detection models.We've also made it easier to work with the data flow from a source system into CDF with the option to create, edit, and troubleshoot the extractors' configuration files in the CDF user interface.Read more below or watch the videos to learn more about this and other improvements in this release. Image and video management​Images contain information such as the time or location of a photo, a number on a tag, or rust on a pipe. Use the new Image and video management tool to upload and enrich images and videos to CDF. Then, organize and explore your images and videos in a list view, gallery view, or on a map and add or review annotations to the images. Read moreUsing the Vision API and the Python and JavaScript SDKs, you can find data based on visual content and link images to assets by analyzing the images with detection models, such as asset tag detection, text detection, and person detection. The person detection model protects privacy and complies with GDPR. Create and edit extractor configuration files in the CDF user interface​The Cognite extractors connect to source systems and push data to CDF. When you set up or want to change the extractors, you can now create and edit the configuration files to fit your requirements on the Extraction pipeline page. This will reduce the time and effort spent accessing the configuration file on the extractor's host machine and make it easier to iterate and deploy the configurations settings and investigate extractor run issues. Read moreWhen you're ready to apply the configuration to a production environment, we recommend setting up remote configuration files stored in the cloud using versioned files and continuous integration systems, such as GitHub Actions, or directly with the CDF API. Read more Point cloud visualization in 3D models​With improved point cloud visualization in the 3D digital twin models, you'll find the rendering of objects clearer, more uniformed and with higher fidelity. This will make it easier to distinguish which object is in front and which is in the back when looking at digital twins. Place measurements in 3D models​Use the Cognite Reveal SDK to measure simple point to point distances in 3D models by clicking to- and from-points. For example to fit a new piece of equipment in a designated location. The default measurement unit is meters, but the tool provides callbacks to allow configuring the unit.Historic time series​The CDF time series service now allows data points starting on 01.01.1900T00:00:00Z (1 January 1900), specified as milliseconds since the epoch. This means you can import a more complete time series history to CDF. Time should be specified as a negative integer value for data points prior to midnight on Jan 01, 1970, and as positive integer values for data points after.

The Cognite Reveal 3D SDK, version 3.2, brings a number of capabilities to application developers integrating 3D into their applications: The CameraManager can be changed in runtime to allow end-users to switch between navigation modes. Note that this must be enabled in the application using Reveal. Add point-to-point measurement support to your application with a few lines of code using MesurementTool. This is supported for both CAD and point cloud models. Support for high-quality blend modes for point clouds. This opt-in feature enables high-quality visualization for point clouds and is suitable for powerful hardware configurations. This release also includes bug fixes and minor improvements. See the Reveal 3.2 changelog for details.  See our interactive documentation with live examples to test these and many other features without leaving your browser.

Context and IntroductionOn top of Cognite Data Fusion (CDF), the subsurface Cognite Discover application is an interface integrating existing tools and systems to give drilling engineers, well engineers, but also geoscientists and data manager, a single and secure access to multiple data sources. With Cognite Discover, you can find and explore structured data such as seismic data, well data and geospatial data, but also unstructured data such as documents, images, reports, spreadsheets using single or combined spatial search, syntax search and filters. This application is also a collaborative tool to structure search and findings with the possibility to share information within teams.The version 1.28.0 is ready and available!We are proud to present the version 1.28 with new features.On casing view, the user can see casing schematics on both sides. Previously, the user could see the casing schematic only on one side. In addition, the casing view provides information relative to the sea floor and water depths. Finally, the casing elements are clearly displayed with information along the measured depth.On casing view, the user can see along the measured depth, integrated information relative to Non-Productive Time (NPT) events and No Drilling Surprise (NDS) events. This is a way to understand visually the distribution of events with depth. It helps the user understanding the zones of potential risks in operations or in high costs for the next offset well.……………………..The NPT events have some acronyms which could be difficult to understand. The user has the capability now to get the acronym definition clicking on the “i” icon. It helps in sharing the same understanding of the NPT events and their risk types. If some acronyms are not yet described, the user is informed to contact his/her admin user to have it define. The admin user can then define the description on a dedicated area within the Admin Settings area under the Code Definitions page.…………………….Another feature available is on the trajectory view where you see 5 plots displaying the trajectories of the selected wellbores. By clicking on the Expand full sized view, you can see the plot in full screen. This improves the data analysis of the wellbore trajectories to understand the overall azimuth directions or the maximum depth and extension of your selected wellbores. Learn more about all the details in the comprehensive release notes. 

Context and introductionAs liquidity increases in short term markets and market mechanisms evolve towards net zero targets, the sheer volume and complexity of data in relation to power trading activity has outpaced the capacity for prudent, optimal decision-making.With Cognite's product suite consisting of Cognite Data Fusion and Power Market Extensions, along with expert input from selected partners, we’re building the next-generation software capabilities designed for modern, data-driven power trading processes. The first Beta Version is ready for operationalisationWe are very proud to present the first Beta version of Power Market Operations to our partner customers. We are now entering a phase of stabilization before releasing to PROD and with that the opportunity to scale the product. Stay tuned.The product is relevant for market analysts, data scientists, production planners and traders who would like to improve data operations and power trading processes.The Beta version of Power Market Operations is the first step towards a fully integrated value chain, especially linking analysis with trading activities across all physical power markets, adding capabilities around continuously improving analyses, models and processes in real time on the basis of OOB benchmarking. This version of Power Market Operations is focused on improving the quality of day-ahead auction participation and helping production planners make decisions with a high confidence level.   The product generates a wide sample space on the basis of sophisticated scenarios for the bid matrix and can update the bid matrix based on events, such as price and water inflow. Cognite Power Market Operations uses event driven automation and frequent updates. By reducing the number of manual operations, it significantly shortens the day-ahead bidding process, and provides visibility around performance to enable quality improvement. Hence, production managers can use automated, detailed benchmarking to improve the process continuously.

This is an exciting release of InField that introduces the Sections feature for checklists based on templates.Sections make it possible to create neatly structured templates, routine round checklists, and checklist reports, with custom sections and subsections for logically grouped tasks.Checklist on desktop Checklist on mobile You can add sections and subsections to new and existing checklist templates if you're granted extended access rights to create templates. To create a section, click Create sections in the template creation view. Give the section a title, and move and indent checklist items that belong together below the section element. To create a subsection, drag and indent a new section directly below an existing section.Checklist items that don't belong to a group, you keep as is by placing them outside a section. You can format the section titles according to these guidelines. Select the Example button in the toolbar for inspiration for an example template with sections. FURTHER IMPROVEMENTSThis is the first version of creating checklist sections, and we'll continue delivering updates on this functionality based on your feedback. OPC UA time series dataStream OPC UA time series data directly from the control system to InField. On the Trends page and the Trends card on the Overview page, you'll see these time series labeled with OPC UA: View P&IDs on mobile unitsWe've learned that some users on some assets struggle to open P&IDs on mobile units. You may need to install a 3rd party file viewer for a particular P&ID document format on the mobile unit. Contact your organization's IT support for help with this.

​Release 1.25 is out, and it includes a few new features and several bug fixes!New features:Multiple isolation list statusesYou can now add multiple isolation list statuses in Workspaces.

The feedback from this survey will greatly help us understand the baseline usability of the application from our end users’ perspective. This 2-minute or less survey will be used to calculate an overall usability score (called a System Usability Scale (SuS)) for the application.

 Data governance is key to ensuring high quality throughout your data's lifecycle, and Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) has the tools and features to secure that the data meet your expectations. This release optimizes data management by introducing more granular access to data transformations using data sets.Read more about this and the other improvements for the CDF April 2022 release below. We cover the main features in the five-minute video above.  Scope transformation access to data setsProtect access to CDF SQL transformations from ungoverned actions and visibility by associating a transformation to a data set. Users will only be able to see and run the transformations associated with the data sets they have access to.- As a project admin granting users access to transformations, select the data sets a user can see and run transformations for under Scope in the Transformations capability dialog:        - As a user creating a transformation, select the data set you want to associate to a transformation in the Create new transformation dialog. Only users with transformation access to this data set can see and run the transformation.          This feature is also available in the CDF API, Python SDK, and Transformations CLI. Read more about transformations Ingest data into sequence rowsYou’ll now find Sequence Rows as an option in the Destination type field on the Transformations page in the CDF user interface and no longer need to use other developer tools like APIs and SDKs to ingest sequence rows into the Sequence resource type in CDF.        Develop applications using JavaAlready, you can build solutions using Cognite's SDKs. Now, we introduce the Cognite Java SDK to interact with the CDF v1 APIs. The Java SDK is optimized for data publishing and allows you to write data efficiently with the upsert function. The Java SDK covers core CDF functionality, such as contextualization and data extraction. You’ll find all the info you need in the cdf-sdk-java repo, and we have updated the Cognite API documentation  with code samples on how to perform tasks with the Java SDK. Change isStep setting for ingesting time series to CDFWhen you stream time series data points into the CDF data model, the interpolation between the data points is controlled by the isStep property on the time series object. You can now change the isStep property value without recreating and re-ingesting the entire time series.

​Hello from the Maintain team!We’ve been focusing heavily on the future of scheduling. We’re happy to release significant changes to this feature as well as updates to the workspaces functionality and a standard slew of bug fixes.Scheduling upgradesWe’re introducing several new upgrades to our scheduling component, and laying the foundation for upgrades to come!You can now create operations. These operations are tied to Maintain and are used for ‘noting down’ new operations that are required. Once you have finalized your changes, you can export these and add them to your source system (e.g., SAP). You can adjust the granularity to see your schedule in a day, week, month, or year view - making it easier to view longer-lasting plans. You can drag and drop operations to reorder them to make the most sense to your plan. Drag and drop bars are now more user friendly and easier to do. The trade matrix will now use the number of workers as a baseline instead of the number of work hours each day. This will be the foundation for the teams concept coming up the next half year. We’ve given the page a new design refresh to make the experience cleaner and easier to use. Finally, we have added a selection of filters for you to use specific to the scheduling page. For example, filtering by the type of operation phase (Pre, Post or Exec).Workspace upgradesWe’ve given the stamp tool a redesign. We also have added a base set of P&ID symbols that you can use as stamps. You can upload images to CDF and use as stamps. If a document physically covers another document on the page, you can now move it between layers. You can now swap between pages of a PDF.Integrity and Major Risks DashboardWe have made multiple changes to improve the performance of the IMR-dashboard.Other updatesWe have improved the filtering options selection to be more performant and included the number of options this filter has.Bug fixesFixed issue with rendering suggestions. Comments tool in workspaces now works again. Fixed issue where the material status did not show on work orders. This release also contains bug fixes to improve performance and user experience.Behind the scenesWe’re looking forward to booking meetings with super users from our customers to start validating our roadmap plans for the upcoming months! Several users have raised some exciting ideas that we are developing a concept around. We hope that these will further increase the value of Maintain going forward. Head on over to the Maintain Group on Cognite Hub to learn more about specific features, what’s to come, and post a question if you have one!

The Product Release Spotlight Webinar recording for February can be found here. Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) streams data into the CDF data model, where the data is normalized and enriched by adding connections between data resources of different types to provide better business decisions. With this release, you can ingest geospatial data into CDF to contextualize and map with other CDF resource types to deliver accurate spatial analysis and statistics.Read more on this and all the other improvements for the CDF February 2022 release below. Geospatial dataWork with geospatial data using the Geospatial API and Python & JavaScript SDKs to handle the positioning and geometry of CDF data. We currently support a multitude of coordinate reference systems (CRS), but you can add other entries from the European Petroleum Survey Group (EPSG) as a custom CRS. You can also transform an input CRS to the defined CRS to improve the search in geometrics.  Read more. Ingest PI Asset Framework data to CDFThe new Cognite PI Asset Framework (AF) extractor is considered an extension to the Cognite PI extractor. The Cognite PI AF extractor retrieves a dump of the asset hierarchy from the Asset Framework on the PI Server and ingests this into Cognite RAW. Subsequently, the extractor regularly checks for updates in the PI asset framework and ingests any changes into CDF. Delete asset hierarchies using CDF TransformationsYou can now delete asset hierarchies in CDF using CDF Transformations. Items are deleted by their internal ID, and non-existing IDs are ignored. Read more about CDF Transformations here. Ingest data into CDF Relationships using PostgreSQL gatewayWe're rolling out the option to use the PostgreSQL gateway and Azure Data Factory (ADF) to ingest data directly into CDF Relationships. Select the public.relationships table in your ADF sink. Learn how here. Ingest time series data points directly into CDF Data points using the Cognite DB extractorThe Cognite DB extractor, version 2.4.1, provides a new option to ingest data points directly into CDF Data points instead of Cognite RAW. Set destination type as TIME_SERIES in your configuration file. Early adopter programsCognite offers several Early adopter programs to our users. We encourage you to take this opportunity to learn about and test our features currently in the making. Navigate to Cognite Hub , open the Group tab, and select Request to join to become an Early adopter candidate.

We are excited to share what’s new in version 1.20 of Cognite Maintain!We have improved the workspace and added new features. Now, you can share a workspace with colleagues. When you have a list, you can load the documents related to the work orders in the list to the workspace. If a work order is unmapped, you can now map it to an asset in one of the documents in the workspace. You can collapse the list panel to the right to get more room to work with workspaces. We have added a shortcut to return to the select tool, press s, or the escape key. You can also delete stamps.When you move an operation on the scheduler page, the trade matrix (showing the number of workers and planned hours for each day for each trade) will be updated accordingly.We have also brought back the Help center.

The Product Release Spotlight Webinar recording for December can be found here.  ​Trusting the data in Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) is the core of managing, building, and using the Cognite product suite. Data engineers need sufficient insight into the staged data to take the next step on the ingestion journey and the new data profiling report on staged data in Cognite RAW caters for this. This CDF release also introduces the new Cognite Solutions Portal. The Cognite Solutions Portal collects applications, use cases, and other helpful links to solutions your organization has built on top of CDF. Users no longer have to keep track of many different URLs to access the information they need in their daily work.Read more on this and all the other improvements for the CDF December release below: Data profiling on staged dataTo get in-depth knowledge about the data quality, discover patterns, outliers, and see other statistics in the new standard profiling report available on the Profile tab in Cognite RAW. Report your findings to the data owners and use this as a trigger to discuss topics such as the best fit for the primary key column and contextualization and to provide the best support for the end-users of the data. Keep iterating on the data integrations to improve the data quality and prepare the data transformation into the CDF data model. Read more here. ​Get notified about interrupted data flow into CDFCatch any issues that interrupt the data flow into CDF by setting up email notifications on the Extraction pipeline page. You can define the time condition for triggering the email. Learn how to set it up in this article.  New tools for running SQL TransformationsNew Transformations CLIThe new Transformations CLI replaces the old Jetfire CLI offering a better developer experience. Now, you can easily declare and manage variables in the configuration file without any hard-code. You install the CLI using the Python pip package manager. Read more here. APIs and Python SDK for TransformationsThe Transformations APIs and Python SDK are promoted to Version 1. Using the APIs/SDK, data engineers can orchestrate transformations sequentially, making it more reliable and quick. Check out the  API docs and SDK docs for more information.  Access management for SQL TransformationsYou can now manage access to SQL Transformations using the new transformations:read and transformations:write capabilities in your CDF group. We still support transformation access using the transformationsor jetfire groups for existing users to ensure backward compatibility. However, we recommend that you switch to managing access to Transformations using the new capabilities. Introducing the Cognite Solutions PortalAs companies ramp up their digitalization and transformation efforts, the number of applications, dashboards, and use cases increases rapidly. As a result, end-users have to keep track of many different URLs to access the information they need. This is the problem Cognite Solutions Portal sets out to solve. It gathers all your CDF-enabled solutions in one place. Use the Cognite Solutions Portal to add applications, dashboards from analytics and visualization tools, and helpful links into shared spaces.  Explore data in 3DThe CDF Data explorer already helps solution builders and data scientists find, validate, and learn about the data in CDF. Get the full experience by navigating and searching for assets and viewing the details in 3D models on the new 3D tab in the CDF Data explorer.    ChartsCognite Charts runs on top of  CDF and is a powerful tool for engineers and domain experts to explore, trend, and analyze industrial data. For more information, visit the Charts [Early Adopter] Group. This release has the following improvements: Automatic data alignmentCharts now automatically handle data alignment in your calculations. Time series data often have different sampling frequencies and time stamps, and it can be hard to do even the simplest calculations (e.g. timeseries_1 + timeseries_2), especially if you’re not proficient in Python.  Calculation results will be inaccurate and untrustworthy without properly accounting for data alignment.    A new and improved no-code calculation builder experienceThe no-code calculation builder has been redesigned and rebuilt on a new, powerful library.   

The Site view has been enabled for specific customers. This feature allows users to see a group of assets in one view, supporting the task of for example, coordinating campaigns that span across many assets. In addition to clicking individual assets as before, the user can now also click a group of assets.The improvements and bug fixes below are also included:The loading time of superimposition suggestions have been improved Trades are now displayed in the resource optimization drop-down suggestions If a user has selected the Suggestions tab for work orders, we default change to the Work orders tab when switching between platforms

The new feature in this release is Workspaces. Workspaces allows you to create and view your markups on selected P&IDs. You can create a new workspace or modify an existing one.
