Real time data in Statoil

Integrated Operations in Statoil Vision Automated and remotely operated fields Definition An instrumented and automated field that utilizes People and Technology to remotely monitor, model and control processes in a collaborative, safe and environmentally friendly way in order to maximize field life value.

How do we address ’Integrated Operations’ in Statoil?

Statoils Onshore Support Centre, Stjørdal Onshore Operation Center (OOC)– 24/7 under operation Operator and service companies Faster learning curve of team due to increased exposure Trained staff in uncertainty and risk mgt. Remote control of geo-steering Expertise is not confined to one asset Ability to link resources between other geographic operation centers e.g. Bergen, Stavanger & Stjørdal Video conferencing capability

Tampen Integrated Operations Way forward Step 1 “ Incremental step” Implement Local e-drilling and “e-production management in all Tampen assets. Step 2 “ Step Change” Establish a 24/7 Onshore Operational Centers (OOC) in Bergen and Stavanger to cover all RESU operational activities in the Tampen area Step 3 Automated real-time monitoring, control and optimizations of all operations for fields in the Tampen Area from the Onshore Operational Centers Expand OOC to cover other Statoil assets as; INT & UPN   Tampen Area

Real-time data development

Real time related development DART R&D project (started in 1997) Developed DART Loader, a tool for transfering drilling data onshore Used DART Loader knowledge in Statoil’s WITSML participation Worked together with Landmark in their OpenWire development (input&testing) Developed Survey QA/QC in 2002/2003 Application for automated real time data management and independent quality control service for directional survey data

Real time related imeplementation OpenWire implemented in Statoil 2003/2004 (Real Time Service – RTS) Real time centre with OpenWire, supporting all licenses/operation rooms 24/7 support in the near future Vast majority of 2003 ”WITSML wells” in the world drilled by Statoil on the Norwegian continental shelf. Time based drilling data Currently Statoil does not have a solution for viewing/accessing time based drilling data We are are in the process of acquiring a system There is no off-the-shelf product/solution available We have tenders from 7 potential vendors – that shows great interest Evaluation in process Contract to be awarded Q2 2004

Future development WITSML for time-based right-time data (drilling, production and facilities) Formats Procedures Tools / models Consolidate the current developed WITSML standard for depth based data and increase the use of the full potential in the defined standard WITSML formats for seismic data?

FOCUS ON CHANGES IN THE WORKFLOWS, IMPORTANT FOR SECURING PAYBACK FROM ’INTEGRATED OPERATION’ SOLUTIONS!!! FOCUS ON CHANGES IN THE WORKFLOWS, BUILDING FACILITIES IS NOT THE PROBLEM
