PRODML Introduction

• PRODML - Multi-vendor Data Exchange Format To Support Digital Oilfields

• Scope, Deliverables

• Who is building PRODML?• What are you going to learn in this session?

• Business case for PRODML• Additional clarity about scope, data, and use cases• How will operators and vendors conduct business

different as a result of PRODML?• How you can participate

Who is building PRODML?


E&P Data Problem – How can PRODML Help?

• Real time data rich, information poor• Exxon, BP, Shell, Chevron, Statoil have

millions of electronic instruments • Generating terabytes of data every day • Fields are becoming more and more

electronic• How can PRODML help turn this data

into useful information?


What is this data?

Now• ESD• F&G• Process

- Reservoir- Well - Surface- Pipeline

• Devices- End elements,

DTS- RTU/PLC- SCADA/DCS

Future

Sensor technology will enable the capture of continuous streams of data from every part of the physical environment


Disintegrated applications and models?

• Abnormal Situation Management• Production Allocation - Energy Components• Optimization Applications – Case Lift• Maintenance Management - SAP • Reservoir Simulations - MBAL • Well Simulations - Prosper • Pipe Line Simulations - Pipesim• Process Simulations - Romeo


What is this thing called Optimization?

• Optimization - a word often used, but rarely understood• Often mentioned but rarely achieved• If achieved rarely sustained• One definition – Improving the bottom line by timely,

effective and sustained use of sufficient, good production information


Gold in them thar data?

• Use data to enable continuous optimization- Artificial Lift Optimization- Continuous estimate of well/reservoir oil, gas, water

flows- Safeguard integrity- Abnormal situation management- Right information to right people, at right time, in right

context, in right workspace to serve right work process- Enable remote operations and real-time process control

• Examples follow

Technical Integrity Problem

•WWho’s watching the unmanned wells and facilities ‘round the clock?


Technical integrity most important

• North Sea one week before Piper Alpha- Explosion in gas compression

module- SCADA system retrieved data,

cause found - Incident could have been

prevented

• Other incidents- Longford- Texas City Refinery raffinate

splitter- Flow assurance – hydrates, leaks - Production facilities get more

fragile as they age!


Potential Enabled Business Benefits

• Improved technical integrity• Improved safety• Increased production• Reduced OPEX


PRODML Technical Architecture• Service Oriented Architecture• Applications can act both as client and

server• Standardised services expressed in

WSDL• Interoperability using SOAP protocol and

XML documents

Wrap-up

• End goals- Commercial applications (not a stack of paper)- Change the software landscape in upstream

operations

• Pilot applications underway in Shell, BP, Statoil and Chevron

• Completion target is SOON – September• How can you be involved?
