Autonomous drilling through managed pressure drilling (MPD) at the Atlantis field has given the operator confidence to scale the method.
The cloud platform provider said the initiative is designed to help energy companies manage and analyze large-scale operational data.
Major increases in hydrocarbon production require both incremental and revolutionary technologies, industry leaders said during the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference.

Like a fast-declining oil well, the value of propriety software is short-lived. Technological advances drive down the value of programs, many of which were never unique.
-
Robots have been a part of industrial production for decades, but the interface between humans and robots has changed as automation technologies increased in complexity, scope, and scale. Once a novelty, collaborative robots are projected to become a significant element of the automation landscape.
-
While both are raw resources, data is reusable. A CERAWeek panel said infrastructure and cultural change are needed to drive the transformative value of data.
-
Scientists at the National Oceanographic Centre have released a review of how marine robotic capabilities can support the environmental monitoring needed for decommissioning oil and gas installations.
