About PDS Scotland
Our People
With an impressive background in the design and development of mission critical, fault tolerant, financial systems, Garry Barclay joined PDS in 2008 to head up PDS's Production Enterprise® Business Unit. With responsibility for Production Enterprise development, operations and sales, Garry's role required significant travel to client site locations in Europe, the Middle East and USA. He managed the implementation of Production Enterprise across PDO assets, and was a major influencer for Energistics' teams working on the emerging PRODML specifications.
Back in the Netherlands, in 2014, Garry picked up technical project management/architecture responsibilities for microKPI, one of the products within Shell's WellVantage® proprietary drilling solution portfolio. This was one of the first drilling operations performance applications to apply AI to rig state inferencing and drilling engineering algorithm optimisation.
in 2018, Garry moved back to his homeland, Scotland, to partner with PDS Group in the foundation of Petrotechnical Data Systems Scotland Ltd as the Aberdeen/North Sea base of operations for Production Enterprise and WITSMLstudio markets. In 2019 Garry headed up the development of DrQ which PDS undertook in partnership with AkerBP.
Today, PDS Scotland is the exclusive world-wide operator for the DrQ SaaS product family. Garry is the CTO/COO of PDS Scotland and Steve Daum its CEO/CRO.
Steve has over forty years of professional experience in upstream, midstream and downstream sectors of the Oil and Gas Industry in a range of scientific, engineering and managerial roles. He is the founder and Group Managing Director of PDS Group.
DrQ SaaS is the world's leading data quality and reliability assurance platform for WITSML data. However, there is no room for complacency and today the team is working flat out to deliver an exciting road map of new DrQ functions and features, and customised configurations of DrQ for Service Providers.
