Preparing for big oil accidents - and how to avoid them

EclipseCon have just started and we - Frode Meling of Marintek in Norway and I - are preparing for our lightening talk "Modeling the World - If you want to move an oil rig, then model it first" that will take place Tuesday afternoon 16:45 in Lafayette.

Having just a lightening talk for the subject has turned out to be the big challenge, so we have looked at the old proverb "A picture tells a 1000 words", and found a very good video to illustrate the idea of the application in question.



You really don't want this is happen - it builds a compelling business case for the application. (I'm not saying this particular accident could have been avoided with SIMA, but...)
