In 2009 DAMA (Data Management International) published the first version of their "Data Management Body of Knowledge". This is an attempt to characterize the whole of data management in a single generic framework, and for the most part it works. The oil industry, like any major sector, has some unique features, so any generic description is bound to not match in a few places. This chapter explores these differences.
