Neptune Energy has used a visualisation software primarily based on 3D gaming tech so as to digitise its subsea oil and fuel wells in Norway.
Oil and fuel knowledge specialist InformatiQ, primarily based in Norway, used its “GeologiQ” cloud-based software program, combining manufacturing knowledge with 3D gaming know-how, for the work which permits Neptune drilling groups to visualise historic and stay knowledge to enhance properly design.
The “digital twins” of the wells will increase effectivity, cut back time and prices at fields together with the Neptune-operated Gjoa.
Director of drilling and wells for Norway, Thor Andre Løvoll, mentioned: “By digitalising all subsea wells inside our Norwegian portfolio we now have vastly improved our potential to plan interventions, monitor drilling and manufacturing operations in real-time and acquire higher understanding of the wells’ historical past.
“Investing in improvements equivalent to these improves effectivity by enhancing communication, interplay and decision-making throughout our enterprise.”
It comes as Neptune Energy has created digital twins for a number of of its operated platforms within the Norwegian, Dutch and UK sectors, together with the southern North Sea Cygnus discipline.
Neptune has additionally introduced on board digital actuality tech, initially developed to practice astronauts travelling to the International Space Station, on the Gjoa set up.
Chief data officer, Kaveh Pourteymour, added: “The purpose of our digitalisation technique at Neptune is straightforward: it’s how, via know-how and digitisation, we are able to help manufacturing effectivity and development.
“By making use of applied sciences neatly, we are able to maximise efficiencies and cut back waste in each space of our enterprise.”
