HOUSTON –Schlumberger has acquired exclusive distribution rights to the oil and gas sector for the MetaCarta map-based geographic information search technology.

"With the increasing amount of information held in unstructured form, such as documents, presentations and Web content, MetaCarta's geographically specific access to unstructured content brings new power to petrotechnical professionals," says Olivier Le Peuch, president, Schlumberger Information Solutions.

Schlumberger says it will acquire all existing contracts for MetaCarta in the oil and gas sector, resulting in a single source for sales and support of this technology in the industry.
