Using Petrosight Connect

The Petrosight Connect extension works by editing data loaded directly from the reports in the web application. In order to use the client you first have to retrieve the report you wish to work on then using the Petrosight Connect extension within your browser you can edit the report data offline. Once you're done with your changes and are ready to commit the changes back to Petrosight and you've returned online to the report page you are able to sync the changed information directly to the report.



  1. Load Report Data


    From the MENU of applicable reports select "Make Available Offline" to load data into the Petrosight Connect extension.



  2. Launch the Petrosight Connect extension


    From your browser's address or extension bar launch the Petrosight Connect extension. The extension may be in a sub menu that you need to expand to see. Clicking the PIN beside the extension entry in the list will make it always visible on your bar.



  3. Select Report


    The available reports will be shown in a list with their current status displayed and any detailed information that may make selecting the report helpful.



  4. Edit Report Data & Save Changes


    After selecting the appropriate report make the necessary changes and click Save Report  in the top corner. Once done you can close this window.


  5. Upload Report Data


    Return to the report page on https://app.petrosight.ca that you loaded data from into the extension. The page will display a status label of Offline Data ready for upload  when changes are detected and ready for importing. Select Upload Offline Data  from the top right menu to initiate the upload process. 


    Changes, additions, and deletions are calculated in real time in order to maintain data accuracy and consistency. Data is merged not replaced. 


    Though a report file can be edited and uploaded several times it is Petrosight's recommendation to only utilize the Petrosight Connect extension when reliable internet service is not available. Further, always check your data after the import to ensure it is correct. Review the report to ensure data is correct and preform any final tasks.
