DATA CONVERSION SERVICES

Remove the barriers to data sharing

When you're under pressure to complete a project or close a transaction, you want the ability to easily share exploration and production data, internally or with partners. The fact that data - especially legacy data - exists in different data formats and on diverse media types impedes timely action and decision making. Iron Mountain offers comprehensive services for data conversion and data transcription, allowing you to quickly convert your data to the most appropriate data format and storage medium for the intended use.

Convert paper to electronic records with Scanning & Imaging

With backfile scanning services, we can help you convert large document libraries to electronic form so records can be archived, accessed, and distributed much more easily, flexibly, and cost-effectively. Day-forward imaging services allow you to immediately convert newly created records to electronic formats as part of your routine workflow, thereby supporting electronic processes.

For documents with low retrieval activity, Iron Mountain offers on-demand imaging solutions that allow you to only scan documents as they are requested, thus reducing conversion costs.
