TECHNICAL PROGRAMME

The workshop is expected to include the following topic sessions:

SESSION 1:  DIGITAL FIELD – GENERAL VISION AND EXPERIENCE

The intent of this section to explore ways of what a concept of the “Digital Oilfield” might  mean for the (Russian) Oilfield practice (development, operations, optimizations). Program Committee seeks a few keynote speakers to lay out a vision of the digital oil field, to demonstrate its benefits and show real life examples. Through presentations and discussion the participants will probe different points of view of vendors and operators and share real-life experience.

SESSION 2:  HARDWARE LEVEL: MEASUREMENTS AND CONTROLS 

This section will provide grounding (with actual examples often applied below ground) in various hardware aspects.  Presentation should cover both measurement and control devices and technologies. Example of Presentation topics: permanent sensors deployed in wells - bottom hole pressure and temperature, artificial lift (ESP) sensors, distributed measurements with fiber-optics, flow meter measurements. Also the problems of reliable production metering. Top side  measurements (single and multiphase flowmetering, pressure and temperature metering etc.) as a foundation for all subsequent decisions should come to light in this section. Also time will be given to presentations on sensors that improve safety and asset integrity.

SESSION 3:  REALTIME SURVEILLANCE AND MANAGEMENT

This session describes techniques and solutions for data collection and management. The intent is to look at approaches of making the most of having performance data available real-time. Focusing operator’s attention on most important signals in a torrent of unverified operational information requires such techniques as various alarms, exception-based surveillance, etc. Realtime information collection, storage  and preparation for better presentation and later retrieval is also an important topic. The section should contain examples of bringing expert advice from the office to the field through Real Time Operations Centers for Drilling or Production.

SESSION 4:  DATA TO ACTIONS: BYTES TO BARRELS

With this section we would like to start exploring ways how information is transformed into decisions and adds value to the business. Some presentation will describe data mining, descriptive/predictive analytics and performance management plays key role in field/reservoir management. Another subset of presentations will describe new and emerging types of data that can influence oilfield decisions – IVMS, autopilot planes, various intelligent in-line meters.

SESSION 5:  OPTIMIZATION THROUGH MODELLING, PLANNING AND DESIGN

This section describe examples of applications and approaches that constitute “Digital Oilfield” in the most traditional sense – a representation of physical asset in cyberspace – ie a model or a set of models.. Presentations should cover Modeling flow in wells, reservoirs and surface pipelines. Also attention will be given to “Shared Earth Models” and Integrated models (reservoir - wells - surface facilities) with emphasis on information handling, verification and data exchanges between models owned by various various disciplines.

SESSION 6:  ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE

This concluding session should bring to light discussion on how oilfield companies (service and operators) can realize the most value of their physical assets through alignment of information flows with its core business processes of development and production. As a keystone, we would like to discuss the concept of Enterprise Architecture, which allows a company building information playing field as a whole and not as result of solving specific tasks at hand. It would also be interesting to have a discussion about drawbacks and benefits of multi-vendor vs a single-vendor application architectures. Presentations will contain examples of efficiency gains by eg removing “information silos” between different functional areas (subsurface, drilling, productions, asset integrity), or introducing data quality checks at data entry points.
