DPTS have completed a tape transcription contract for ONHYM, the National Oil Company of Morocco.

The contract involved the recovery, reformatting and transcription of seismic, well log, navigation, gravity and magnetic data from 1974 to 2001. Over 46,000 tapes, cartridges and optical disks were transcribed to 3590 cartridges or CD-R in industry-standard formats over a 12 month period in Rabat.

DPTS used the Diplomat Transcription software for the project and Diplomat MultiStore to catalogue the tapes transcribed. At the end of the project, the MultiStore database and a complete transcription system, including the Diplomat Transcription software was delivered to ONHYM, thus enabling them to provide ongoing management services for their data.
