Digital oilfield
This paper presents various functionalities and benefits of a monitoring tool developed for and used with all critical flowmeters in the operator’s production system.
The authors propose a hybrid virtual flow and pressure metering algorithm that merges physics-based and machine-learning models for enhanced data collection.
This paper discusses the concept, applications, and continual evolution of a new 3D temperature and spectral-acoustics modeling and logging approach.

The digital twin aims to allow Petrobras to optimize system settings to maximize production, increase recovery, and reduce risk.
-
For today’s oil and gas companies, digital twins offer untapped potential to decarbonize the leading source of their emissions—field production.
-
This paper presents the concept of a supervisory and advisory system dedicated to support the detection of abnormal events and to provide guidelines for fluid treatment.

We must admit that the oil field is still in the early days of its digital journey. It’s time to give serious thought to the expectation/reality gap, the cultural differences between the way we’ve always done things and the way that digital is changing us, and the pain points that may trip us up unless we’re careful.
-
The authors of this paper describe a procedure that enables fast reconstruction of the entire production data set with multiple missing sections in different variables.
-
This paper presents a physics-assisted deep-learning model to facilitate transfer learning in unconventional reservoirs by integrating the complementary strengths of physics-based and data-driven predictive models.
-
The authors of this paper propose an automated approach to sand prediction and control monitoring that improved operational efficiency by reducing time spent on manual analysis and the decision-making process in a Myanmar field.
