Welcome to the WITSMLstream Community Portal

WITSMLstudio Open Source Resources and Community Products are being migrated to the WITSMLstream Community Portal, a hosted, secure collaboration platform enabling developers and other field data engineers to publish and share community-focused open source software, utilities,  services and tools.

Free vs. Open Source

PDS has been providing WITSMLTM (/PRODMLTM/RESQMLTM/EnergyMLTM/ETPTM) related Open Source products since 2016. Some time ago we decided to hit pause on our Open Source contributions. Although we are no longer actively developing our Open Source offering, we remain committed to provide you with easy-to-install, easy-to-use, free WITSML related products and services. Our existing Open Source portfolio, including DevKits, remains available for developers and in many scenarios provides a solid foundation for building your own extended solutions. We believe that the additional free, non Open Source products we offer complement the tool-set providing a full featured develop and test environment.

WITSMLstudio Desktop

WITSMLstudio Desktop, our WITSML and ETP Browser desktop application will remain available to download from our website for free. Soon we will launch its successor, which will be a browser based application that includes support for WITSML 2.1/ETP 1.2.

WITSMLstudio Store DevTest access

We continue to offer free access to multiple DevTest instances, including our latest WITSMLstudio Store for members of the Oil and Gas community for Development and Test purposes. If you are interested in receiving your own set of credentials, please contact us to request access.

Coming soon: WITSMLstudio Store CE

We will shortly be launching our next generation of community-focused initiatives, with the release of WITSMLstudio Store Community Edition ("Store CE" for short).  Store CE will be a fully compliant WITSML 2.1/ETP 1.2 Server,  available as an installable run-time package, and licensed on a cost-free ($0), perpetual basis for unlimited internal usage of the licensee.  We will distribute Store CE binaries and related Open Source utilities via the Azure and AWS Marketplaces, and via the WITSMLstream Community Portal.

For End Users and Developers

End Users

We recommend End Users / Engineers / Testers that need a WITSML Browser or ETP Browser to simply download the PDS WITSMLstudio Desktop client using either the ClickOnce Installer, or by downloading and running the Latest Build. The current version support WITSML 1.3.1.1, 1.4.1.1 and 2.0 over SOAP or ETP 1.1 and 1.2Preview

We will soon make our latest WITSML/ETP Browser available through this Portal, which will be a browser based version that includes support for WITSML 2.1/ETP 1.2 with seemless integration into our WITSMLstream and WITSMLstudio product line.
