Emerson and Total Sign Long-Term Global Agreement for Paradigm Exploration & Production Software Solutions

Total becomes an active member of Emerson’s OpenDB Consortium

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Emerson (NYSE: EMR) announced today a long-term global agreement with Total®
S.A. to provide all Total geoscientists with access to Emerson’s
Paradigm exploration and production (E&P) software portfolio to help the
global energy leader maximize performance of reservoir subsurface
modeling and formation evaluation.

“Emerson is one of our key suppliers of E&P geosciences software,” said
François Alabert, vice president, Geo-Technology at Total E&P. “With
this agreement, our geoscientists will have improved and easier access
to critical technology wherever and whenever they can most benefit from
it, while keeping full flexibility in using our own tools as well as
alternative external solutions.”

In late 2017, Emerson
acquired Paradigm, which combined with Emerson’s existing portfolio,
makes Emerson the largest independent provider of E&P software to the
oil and gas industry.

“The primary focus of our E&P Software business is to help energy
producers extract the greatest value from their field assets,” said Mike
Train, executive president, Emerson Automation Solutions. “We’re proud
to collaborate with Total to provide their geoscience experts the
insights they need to maximize reservoir performance.”

The agreement provides Total access to the Paradigm SKUA-GOCAD™ and
Paradigm Geolog® software solution suites for full field life cycle
subsurface modeling and formation evaluation activities. Additionally,
through use of a Paradigm software development kit, Total will continue
to integrate the technology into its own proprietary geosciences and
reservoir integrated platform.

With the new agreement, Total will also become an active member of the
new OpenDB Consortium, Emerson’s E&P Software initiative to build a
next-generation database using industry standard formats. By
participating in the consortium, Total will be able to contribute
directly to the design and implementation of the database and influence
future technological developments.
