(US) - Halliburton introduced its eRedBook software, a digital toolkit that offers calculators for computations used in daily operations; an interactive wellbore tool that enables users to share well schematics; product information from all Energy Services Group product service lines; as well as the American Petroleum Institute's (API) most up-to-date pipe data, among other resources.

The software evolved from the RedBook cementing tables reference guide, which was first published by Halliburton in 1929.

Available at no cost on Halliburton's Web site, the software can be downloaded by customers and students alike in its entirety, or they can choose only those sections required to meet their needs.

The software interface is designed to be intuitive for users, with a straightforward navigation system that allows for faster access to information, calculations, and design tools to help improve decision-making.

The software contains all the data from the original, hardcopy RedBook reference guide.

It features expanded content that makes it a complete and easily accessible resource, and it enables users to transfer data into other mediums such as e-mail or word processing applications.

With an Internet connection, eRedBook's self-update function will automatically download new content, including calculators, revised API pipe data, and additional features as they become available.
