OPENING KEYNOTE

How IoT Can Bring Value and Be Applied to The Oil and Gas Industry?
  • IoT is about unusual events (e.g. rapid detection of equipment failure or degradation)
  • A lot of IoT technologies are already here
  • Real value is in the data, not in the devices!
  • Technology development is easy – implementation is hard

PANEL DISCUSSION

Energy Crisis: Oil and Gas Digital Transformation & Drastic Shifts in the Global Economy
  • Geopolitical conflicts and Russo-Ukrainian war: As many economies are highly dependent on energy from Russia, these changes will most likely reshape the future of the oil and gas industry. Many countries around the world have chosen to modify their oil and gas supply chains
  • Cost management: The oil and gas industry is pretty unstable right now and organisations need a systematic and comprehensive analysis of price curves and thoughtful methods of management based on an extensive data analysis
  • How digital transformation has helped enterprises cut the costs of oil and gas distribution & employment and increase their outcomes?

CASE STUDY

Cognite Data Fusion: The Data Backbone enabling Digital Twins and Asset Performance Management.

Digital twins have been widely adopted across production operations, but success has been difficult to define and replicate for a number of reasons.


In most cases, digital twin initiatives are either limited to a single hyper-focused use case or lack the infrastructure to support 100’s of digital asset performance management use cases at scale. As a result, use cases do not scale past initial deployments or meet ROI expectations.

The problem can be solved with a strong data foundation and a clear vision to accelerate efforts. Learn about how the industry must re-envision the journey from raw, siloed data to scalable digital twin programs from Cognite Data Fusion and industry experts.

In this session, we will share key components of a next-generation data foundation, demonstrate innovative mindsets in practice, and demonstrate how they have impacted production management and optimization

CASE STUDY

Enterprise IoT Hub, unlocking real-time data sharing capability across the enterprise and added value creation.

With the deployment of EIH, the team successfully securely remotely monitored all the key parameters of a cooling water pump connected to a Motor Control Centre (MCC) within a DCS. Using an IoT-enabled PLC, the team was able to integrate and liberate the data within the MCC and subsequently publish the data to EIH for monitoring and, at the same time, introduced the capability to start-stop the cooling water pump that is located in the north-eastern coast of Malaysia via a laptop and a tablet that has secure access to the EIH situated at the famous KLCC Petronas Twin Towers (which is over 450 km away). This was accomplished without having to extend the DCS for that pump to KLCC!

 

The data for the cooling water pump available in EIH could also be shared across the PROTEAN (PETRONAS Rotating Equipment Analytics), a Predictive Maintenance Program to identify anomalies and trends, highlighting potential incipient failures & identify opportunities for reliability improvement. The same data can be shared with another analytics program in Petronas known as P-MMPD (PETRONAS Machinery Monitoring and Prescriptive Diagnostics).

 

With the unlocking of this capability to share real-time data across Petronas at the enterprise level using the Enterprise IoT Hub (EIH), the team can now assist in the enablement of a Remote Autonomous Operation (RAO) for the oil and gas industry

OPENING KEYNOTE

Digitalization: Myth & Reality

Digitalization has transformed the downstream oil and gas industry, creating more efficient and cost-effective operations. The adoption of digital technologies has enabled real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and a more data-driven approach to decision making. The future of digitalization in the downstream oil and gas industry is promising, with more advanced technologies expected to bring about even more significant transformations.

Challenges:

  • Legacy Systems and Infrastructure
  • Cyber Security Risks
  • Cultural Resistance

Adrian Blanck, Chief Digitalization Officer, Saudi Aramco

CASE STUDY

Shedding light on siloed and scattered information through a digital twin
  • IoT, machine learning, predictive analyses, and augmented reality are all good, but how do you set yourself up to unlock the value of information with new technologies?
  • What building blocks are needed to go from unstructured data to a digital twin of an asset?
  • How can a digital twin create a workspace that transforms how an organisation works and collaborates?

CASE STUDY

Mission imPOSSIBLE
What is the secret behind a successful transformation project?

There is a common understanding across the industry of the power that lies within the benefits of digitalization, but no matter how dedicated we are and the investments we make, we are struggling to go from “vision to product to adoption”. Why?

In a world of a million buzzwords and promised miracles pitched to us as quick fixes in a sea of apps and tech solutions, we are struggling with our approach to ensure that we are able to deliver and harvest the benefits that are identified and promised to our stakeholders.

Facts:

  • There are a lot of ambitions; there is will and there is even a willingness to invest.
  • There is a high-level alignment across the industry related to what and when.

Question:

  • So why are we still discussing the vision in board rooms and not presenting the result?
  • Have we forgotten to discuss the who and underestimated the how?

This presentation will address how Archer is approaching their digital transformation journey, sharing some of the experiences and tricks used to move these deliverables from a mission impossible to a mission possible within their organization, counting approximately 5000 employees.
