In January when the oil prices fell below 50$ a barrel, many of our Calgary clients started re-evaluating their capital project plans to get the most out of this year’s investments. One of our clients was planning to invest in significant pipeline infrastructure and progress on a drilling program with 6 drill rigs on the go at any given time. The client needed to rearrange priorities and reduce this year’s plan down to 3 rigs and decrease main trunk line development.

One of our consultants who is currently loading large amounts of P6 data using Emerald’s P6 Loader came to me with a concern that there is sometimes a lag between loading information using our P6 Loader (via the API’s) and it appearing in P6, even if he repeatedly pressed the F5 (Refresh) key. The lag could be minutes or hours depending on the situation.
