Smart Systems The basic approach of all “smart technology” is measure-model-control –measure system properties –model actual vs desired behaviour –derive required correction parameters (adaptive control) –implement control ∆ INTOPS Acquire Model Analyze Control Source: Shell INTOPS = Integrated Operations

Business Headquarters Capacity Planning Design [months/years] Operational Planning [months/years] Scheduling [days/months] Supervisory Control [minutes/hours] Regulatory Control [sec/minutes] Well & Surface facilities -Flow, pressure and temperature in wells and separator -Fuel injection to produce heat out of a boiler - SCADA systems for coordinating flow stations and pipelines -Gas distribution/optimization on a pipeline network -Monitoring wellheads, multiples and flow stations -Scheduling of injection/production plan and resources - Opening and closing wells or partial completions - Adjusting well operating parameters -Planning of injection/production plan and resources - Planning drilling and workover resources - Supply Chain Management & Market and customer demands -Asset life cycle and installed based maintenance or growth -Supply Chain Management & Market and customer demands Automation level Time-scale Fast cycle Slower cycle Source: Saputelli SPE Time Scales (10 6 range) INTOPS Acquire Model Analyze Control

IntOPS SIG Area of Interest –the definition, movement, and storage of production operation data, information, and knowledge, especially in support of integrated, intelligent, instrumented, etc. operations for near well-site and remote operations in time scales from near real-time to months and years. –This group is essentially a cross-vendor, cross-product line user community for production operations applications and data storage products and services. Players –operators, service and software providers, government agencies, consultancies, and POSC.

IntOPS SIG Meeting attendees thus far include: –Oil companies: BP, ChevronTexaco, ExxonMobil, Hydro, ONGC, Shell, Statoil –Non-profit: University of Houston, NPD, POSC Caesar –Commercial: Aspen Tech, Baker Hughes, Halliburton, Invensys, National Oilwell, Sense Intellifield, Merrick, Schlumberger

IntOPS SIG History –Formed in early ‘03 –Initial SIG meetings held in Houston and London –Meetings in ’04 in Houston and Stavanger –Association with and now participation in the Integrated Information Platform (IIP) project in Norway Statoil, Hydro, DNV, National Oilwell, POSC Caesar, FMC –Distributed Temperature Survey Data Transfer Standard Project Proposed by BP after initial work with BakerHughes Validated for level of interest Formed in Q3 and Q4 First phase due to be completed by end of 05 Q1.

IntOPS SIG History –Sponsored Strategic Decision Sciences’ "Roadmap to Enterprise Optimization" published in September POSC members receive a special price for the study and the SIG can use the results of the study. –Interaction with SPE Realtime Optimization We will co-chair the SPE Forum on "Automation, Measurement and Remote Control" to be held in 2005.
