Electrical Submersible Pumps are the most popular type of artificial lift for production wells. Therefore, ESP reliability has a huge impact on KPI of any Oil Company. The teal time supervising of ESP regimes, detecting of abnormal situations with equipment, as well as prediction of breakdown probability (the most important parameter which is defining economic efficiency of ESP) allow to properly plan the costs of repairing of the equipment and new purchases. In other words, to effectively allocate available resources. Additional points are high ESP costs, complexity of the equipment and a wide range of sizes and types.

Detection, prediction and prevention of possible hazard situations (as well as deviations from the planned drilling schedule) is an important task. Consequences of accidents can lead to significant losses, dramatically reduce the KPIs of drilling operations. Late detection of a hazard or critical situation can significantly delay the operations Furthermore, some failures can be recognized only after comprehensive analysis of information derived by SCADA system from specific sensors. This evidence, combined with high mechanical drilling velocity, significantly increases the demands on the qualifications of engineering staff and reduction of the time for situation evaluation and making decisions.

Efficiency of the oil production technology is a critical issue for the industry. In many cases, for mature fields it can be achieved by waterflooding optimization which is the main oil recovery technique. Such optimization, in general case, is some regulation of volume of injected water for each active injection well in order to improving oil displacement process. Nowadays, this task is solved using a geostatistical & stochastic reservoir description via 3D dynamic modeling. Such approach has some disadvantages like ‘noisiness’ of the field data, physical model interpretability issue, as well as high computing demands. Moreover, the 3D geological and hydrodynamic model, modern and complex tool for reservoir characterization, does not offer any feature for injection rates calculation that allow to increase full field production profile.

Automated solution for full pre-processing of logging data including all routine and time-consuming tasks like quality assessment, best log identification, splicing, depth shifting. Cross-well logging data automated pre-processing and QC include: Identification of logs with incorrect units and types, Normalization of logs with “out of range” values using AI, Search for bad holes intervals and outliers and logs reconstruction in such intervals, Full logs reconstruction in case of absence of some logs in wells with cross-well quality assessment, Merging logs from different intervals with simultaneous prediction of quality for final logs.

The main goal of the Well-Reservoir-Management (WRM) activities is to increase and/or maintain oil production level for the existing well stock. We identify candidates for well treatment / intervention and summarize in reports: - Evaluation of oil gain of previously completed well treatments/stimulation activities - Classification algorithm selected for the project, metrics to estimate a predictive value of the algorithm and recommendations on how to improve it - List of existing active production wells labeled with treatment suitability - For each well labeled as applicable for WRM, forecast for oil production gain

To oversee the operations and to monitor the safety compliance. Expected outcome includes 3D reconstruction of on-site equipment, surveillance of PPE allocation, monitoring of high pressure lines. The surveillance is done automatically from the drones navigated by aruco markers. Notifications are sent to the supervisors, the compliance metrics and alarms are screened in the control cabin and accessible from mobile smart devices.

Classification of Producers is one of the Subsurface Answer solutions. It is developed to support planning of water production management activities. Based on SVM algorithms, Classification of Producers script allows automatic selection of wells for water shut-off workover job. In such a way, our reservoir engineers develop recommendations for the selection of reservoir sites to level the waterflooding profile in a fraction of traditionally spent time.

Nowadays CCTV cameras and broadband are available due low cost. Most of operational areas including drilling rigs, well pads and service hangars are equipped with cameras. The capabilities of the video stream are mainly aimed to record and store the video stream for post-incident analysis though. The proposed solution is based on the analysis of the video stream from CCTV cameras in real time without involvement of the rig personnel. The algorithm can target both operation supervising and compliance to HSE standards objectives. The approach uses the modern advantages of Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Situational Analysis, including convolutional neural networks for detecting key objects and their states in video streams.

A user experience is created using real-time 3D visualization engines that provide instant immersive experience to the customers. Once the assets and data are simulated and visualized for real-time 3D GUI, the outcome can fed into multiple platforms like: Webportal UX platforms, Interactive public display installations, Mobile App interfaces, VR (Virtual Reality) immersive experiences, AR (Augmented Reality) and XR (Extended Reality) additions. Latest real-time 3D visualization solutions can be easily hosted and ported on a web server to provide immersive interactive experiences without previous bandwidth or connection issues. The final GUI is fully scalable, procedurally adaptable and adjustable.
