the need for trading in BP…in gas
•BP is the world’s 2nd largest gas producer
•Production is set to grow by 4% to 2010 to
around 10.7bfcd
•BP is the 2nd largest supplier of gas into
LNG plants
•BP is the largest supplier of gas in the US
However…
•Gas transportation and storage are more
costly than oil
•Global gas markets vary widely by physical,
contractual and regulatory characteristics
How can we ensure access to midstream (delivery) and downstream (consumers) to secure
maximum production flow for our gas?

Common Myths about Non-Standard Apps
Myth 1. It is cheaper to go with product X.
Although it may have a lower license rate, you pay in other ways, such as extra development and maintenace costs.
Myth 2. It is easier to use.
The ease of use may just be more of a training issue rather than a case of ease of use. Standard Applications have a
more mature architecture, such as semantic layer, managed services and deeper integration.
Myth 3. It is more flexible.
This usually plays into Myth 2, and usually the remedy is the same as Myth 2, training, but there also has to be some
more cheerleading involved. Such deeper integration and give the developers reason on wanting to go to the
standard.
Myth 4. It is quicker to deploy.
There may be some truth to this in the beginning, but using non-standard increases time for other activities such as
maintenance, upgrades and fixes.

Evangelizing a Standard
Why Clients go to a Non-Standard Application?
1. Perceived Lower Cost
2. Timelines
3. Local Resource Experience
Benefits of Staying on a Standard
1. Reuse of Currently Built Infrastructure
2. Decrease Timelines
3. User Local Resource to Integrate with
