Intelligent Pipe Solution – Monitoring Your Well From the Inside

June 08, 2021
Sponsored by: Vallourec
Well integrity to prevent catastrophic damage has always been a key focus of the Oil and Gas industry and operators continuously work to reinforce it. Today, well integrity data available throughout the life of the well remains limited. Our Intelligent Pipe solution brings operators a new tool to better understand and monitor their wells. Our solution integrates an innovative pressure and temperature sensor based on MEMS (Microelectromechanical systems) technology directly on the pipes which allow operators to access previously inaccessible areas in the well in real time. The webcast will present this innovative intelligent tube solution based on the expertise of two recognized companies, Vallourec and OpenField. This approach is new and, leveraging the latest IoT technologies, opens a new era for easier and optimized data-based Oil and Gas well monitoring.

Open Secure Remote Operations and Custody Transfer

May 26, 2021
Sponsored by: Bedrock Automation
The Covid pandemic interrupted delivery of many of the benefits that IIoT and digitalization promised for midstream and upstream oil and gas. Now as many are getting back to work, they are finding that the efficiency, flexibility and security for which they had been planning is more important than ever — for both recovery and profitable operation. This webinar presents an architecture that will help make sense of digitalization, illustrated by examples of how it can be applied for both remote operations management and custody transfer. KEY TAKEAWAYS – Learn why midstream and upstream automation must be both open and secure Learn how open secure remote monitoring can improve upstream operating efficiency by more than 50 percent Learn how open secure flow computing can reduce custody transfer lifecycle costs and protect revenue Learn how to leverage zero-trust public networks for near zero-cost access to automation for operation and maintenance purposes

Frac different with the digital capabilities of TechnipFMC’s iComplete™ ecosystem

iComplete™ is a fully integrated ecosystem that minimizes complexities using standardized equipment that can be set up for any unconventional well in the world. iComplete™ has 50 percent fewer components, 80 percent fewer connections, reduces OpEx costs by 30 percent, and drives further efficiencies through a digital interface, eliminating human intervention in the red zone. In this webcast, Graham Horn and John Eden will be sharing with the audience how TechnipFMC’s iComplete™ ecosystem is bringing the industry one step closer to a fully autonomous frac pad. This disruptive technology is increasing operation governance through reduced infrastructure, fewer personnel in the red zone and instance-based decision making – removing the manual process required to evaluate status and communicate, as well as the potential for human error.

Performing with Sustainable Purpose

HydraGlyde high-performance water-based drilling fluid system delivers ROP comparable to oil-based mud, exceptional hole cleaning, and wellbore stability in high-angle-build and long-lateral sections. Advanced technology is the pathway to achieving sustainability goals. Recognizing that sustainability and drilling performance go hand in hand is the first step toward achieving aggressive targets for carbon footprint reductions and overall environmental performance. And using life cycle analysis (LCA) is one of the crucial measurement tools. This presentation highlights a complete approach to LCA for drilling fluids and cuttings, along with an example of improved sustainability performance using water-based mud in concert with other advanced drilling, solids control, and waste management technologies.
