Drilling
Digitalization and automation of the drilling process drive the need for an interoperability platform in a drilling operation, where a shared definition and method of calculation of the drilling process state is a fundamental element of an infrastructure to enable interoperability at the rigsite.
The birthplace of Royal Dutch Shell, Indonesia and Malaysia, buck trends and grow their gas and oil industries, expecting a record number of final investment decisions in the next 4 years in gas, deep water, and carbon capture projects to support Southeast Asia’s booming economic growth.
Technology uptake aimed at optimizing resources, delivering consistency, and augmenting what humans can do.

Telling executives that the cost per foot drilled is down is not going to convince them that drilling is getting more efficient. That requires translating drilling measures into the language of corporate budgeters.

Geothermal power offers enormous potential—an inexhaustible supply heat to drive huge electric plants around the clock—but that extreme heat can quickly kill conventional hardware, which led to something new.
-
Drilling customers would like to be able to buy the hardware they need from the vendor of their choice and plug it into an automated system, but the companies creating the control systems say they can not afford to do that.
