Stephen brings a vast amount of experience across both gas and liquids measurement to the W Energy Software team ranging from field maintenance activities, equipment design, and back office measurement data management. He held various engineering, management, and marketing roles for E&P companies, midstream companies, and manufacturers; always focused on measurement.

“I’m excited to join the W Energy Software management team and eager to get to work spearheading a new generation of software to track, validate, balance, and report hydrocarbons across the value chain, built by a measurement user for measurement users,” said Stephen Anson, W Energy Software’s new Director of Measurement. “Historically there has only been one option for measurement data management; this created an opportunity to serve the industry by providing a choice that is innovative and impactful, which is why we are setting out to redefine measurement data management with a new generation platform built on the cloud that is fast, accurate, and reliable,” he said, adding, “I look forward to forging a strong relationship with our Measurement Product Consortium members to ensure that industry needs are represented and continuously aligned with product features.”
WE Measure will provide upstream and midstream companies with a secure data warehouse for centrally managing volume, energy, and product quality measurement data in the cloud, integrating large numbers of SCADA data sources, and streamlining meter data analysis. The next generation solution will also provide processes and functionality to validate measurement data, provide material balances, deliver clear audit trails, and ensure compliance with energy industry, regulatory, and accounting standards.
