“Hey, we don’t allow no faster-than-light neutrinos in here!” says the bartender.

A neutrino walks into the bar.

My now second favorite “walks into a bar” joke…

A horse walks into a bar.  The bartender says, “Hey buddy, why the long face?”

Catching up with SAS RiskAdvisory

Posted by Patrick Reames On October - 7 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

I was in Calgary this week visiting with the folks at SAS RiskAdvisory and speaking at an event that they produced for their clients.  I continue to be impressed with the vision the RiskAdvisory group has in the area of utilizing SAS’s latest data and information aggregation solutions to enable sophisticated energy risk analytics across the entirety of a energy centric enterprise.  Their approach, which they call Energy Commodity Risk Aggregation and Analytics (ECRAA) has taken advantage of SAS’s industry leadership in the areas of data integration and enterprise risk, and have combined that with their expertise and experience in energy risk modeling.  The result is a solution that has seen very good success and acceptance, including the signing of one of Canada’s largest oil and gas producers in just the last couple of weeks.
