video wall, the wireless ClickShare collaboration system, and the F35 AS3D 3D projector.

    For its eleventh edition, Petrotech stayed true to its core mission: to acquaint
professionals in India's growing oil and gas industry with the latest tools and solutions
to overcome the most pressing challenges in the sector. As the third-largest oil consumer
in the world, India is highly dependent on the import of crude oil and natural gas. At the
same time, many of the country's oil wells are left unexplored, making it a haven for oil
and gas professionals and suppliers looking for new opportunities.

    "Over the years, Barco's appearance at Petrotech has become a tradition," says Abel
Garamhegyi, Managing Director at Barco India. "This year, we are happy to showcase our
latest collaboration 3D technology: stereographic cubes which help the oil industry make
wiser, more effective, and more cost-effective decisions."

    Slick 3D visualization

    Technology plays a key role in seizing the industry's opportunities. Barco has
therefore developed a range of solutions that help oil and gas professionals work more
efficiently. At its Petrotech booth, Barco premiered its 3D video wall solution in India.
Proven successful at Brazilian oil giant OGX Petróleo e Gás, Barco's innovative 3D
technology can play a large role in facilitating both oil and gas exploration and the
management of existing wells. Also, at the Barco booth, visitors experienced firsthand the
unique features of the projectiondesign F35 AS3D projector. As the world's
highest-resolution 3D single-chip DLP(R) projector, this piece of cutting-edge technology
displays fully uncompressed 3D images with more detail than any projector in its size,
price, and performance category, making it a must-have for every control center.

    Lubricating the gears of collaboration

    Apart from pure visualization, Barco also presented its revolutionary ClickShare
presentation tool. Developed specifically to foster collaboration, ClickShare is an
intuitive, wireless tool that allows participants in a meeting to easily display their
content on a central screen. Operated by a single click of a USB button or mobile app,
ClickShare makes meetings more productive and enjoyable, whether they involve the latest
quarterly figures or a technical exposition on new drilling opportunities.

    Schlumberger

    Speaking of collaboration: crystal Petrotech sponsor and long-term Barco partner
Schlumberger also displayed its own portfolio on Barco's OverView MVL-621 video wall. The
leading technology and integrated project management supplier to the global oil and gas
industry chose the MVL-621 to make sure it presents its products under the best possible
conditions: in full HD, with the highest amount of detail and brightness to highlight
every unique feature.
