Systems and methods for diagnosing production problems in oil field operations are provided. A first video monitor displays an oil field diagnosis process flow chart that includes selectable objects such as Review Well Test Differences, Review Sliders, Review Bad Actors, and Perform Steam Flood Performance Check. Each selectable object is associated with one or more incompatible domain-specific software applications. One or more of the selectable objects are selected and one or more additional video monitors display reports extracted by a middle-ware software code segment layer from the associated domain-specific software applications. Oil wells having production problems are listed and problem oil wells are displayed on an oil field map. Any commonalities among the displayed problem oil wells indicative of a common cause of the production problems are visually identified. Work is scheduled in the associated domain-specific software applications sufficient to remedy the common cause.

Systems and methods for managing large oil field operations are provided. A oil field map is displayed on a monitor. The oil field map includes oil well objects, oil field facility objects, surface work crew objects, sub-surface work crew objects, safety zones objects, and work equipment rig objects associated with at least one work crew object and having a geographic locater device for tracking its location, each of the objects include a date attribute and a location attribute. The oil field map is customizable by date and has a date selector tool. At least two surface or sub-surface work crew objects are scheduled via a domain-specific software application from which the surface or sub-surface work crew object was extracted. The scheduling of the surface or sub-surface work crew objects is repeated until all surface and sub-surface work crews are scheduled for a date range of interest.
