Digital Oil Field
This paper explores how artificial intelligence (AI), cognitive models, and integrated digital tools can transform readiness from periodic drills into a continuous, measurable capability.
This paper presents a competency-centered, data-driven approach implemented to strengthen control-room emergency-response capability through a cloud-hosted, scenario-based virtual plant simulator.
This paper presents an autonomous, data-driven solution designed specifically for intermittent well optimization.

In partnership with TechnipFMC, DNV GL opened a pilot project for the international collaboration of operators and the supply chain. Many digital twins represent an asset’s initial form and struggle to reflect developments in their physical counterparts as the asset matures.
-
Edge—or, in-field, device-level—computing is being driven by the need for data from individual wells to be analyzed and processed at the wellsite instead of in data centers for early and accurate decision making.
-
Immersive technology on projects such as wellsite planning incorporates XR, drones, and collaboration.
-
Production monitoring requires heightened degrees of precision and efficiency as operations are streamlined and projects are evaluated continuously. This month’s feature focuses on innovative technologies that have been implemented in environments ranging from the Gulf of Mexico to China.
