People and the digital oilfield

Thursday, October 20, 2011, Stavanger, Norwegian Petroleum Museum

This conference is designed for people from the IT department (and related domains), and human factors / training departments (and related domains), who would like to keep up to speed with the latest technology and ideas to help people work better with their computer systems.

In order to improve safety, production, efficiency and ultimate recovery, people need to have the best possible information in a way they can work with.

That means they can easily access the information they need, they don't have too much information than they can absorb, they have IT tools they can easily use and collaborate with, and they can practise what they will need to do.

This conference gathers together the best ideas from the oil industry, software companies and academia to help make this happen.

“My theory [on why Macondo happened] is that the interface [providing information about drilling operations] was too complex" - David Payne, Chevron’s vice president of drilling, speaking at the GE Oil and Gas Annual Meeting in Florence on January 312011.

Sponsors of this event

RPS Energy
RPS Energy provides a range of technical, commercial and project management support services to the international energy industry, covering geoscience, engineering and HS&E, with offices around the world.

PetroDAQ
PetroDAQ Data Acquisition units for the Oil and Gas Industry are built with reliability and safety in mind.

Units include the Universal DrillDAQ System, MudDAQ, RigDAQ, SoftDAQ data adaptors, and SafetyDAQ.

An essential safety measure for all drilling operations, SafetyDAQ provides comprehensive capture and recording of all crucial drilling data, as well as allowing for realtime 3rd party monitoring.

Capable of capturing and aggregating all standard drilling data formats, SafetyDAQ's ruggedized architecture and EEXD certified housing were designed to withstand the most extreme of events. Through it's data transmission facility, data can be monitored and safely stored as required.

It also supports the recording of Audio and Video feeds. These audio and video feeds along with the recorded drilling parameters are key elements of analysis to determine the safety conditions of the operation, as well as the main source of information during incident investigations.

SafetyDAQ can be deployed either alongside existing Data Acquisition systems at the rig, or as a standalone system for Acquisition, Agregation, Display and Transmission of data.
