Real-time Drilling Optimisation

PREDICT DRILLING ISSUES, PREVENT HAZARDS, IMPROVE DRILLING PERFORMANCE.”

Real-time Drilling Optimisation

At Sekal we are powering change. We believe every well is drillable, every sidetrack is avoidable, and new drilling records are possible – safely. We offer powerful capabilities that turn real-time data into customer value at scale – already fortified by over 450 wells across the globe which have achieved safer, more consistent, and efficient drilling.

  • Sekal AS (a Norwegian company) has developed and validated the product in collaboration with Statoil, Saudi Aramco.
  • Our proactive Real-time Drilling Optimisation (RTDO) solution anticipates drilling events, avoid delays, and prevent hazards caused by such issues as losses in weak zones, washouts, wellbore ballooning, poor hole cleaning, higher torque and drag, swab and surge, underground blowout, stuck pipe, lost circulation, WOB (not transferred), formation damage and wellbore instability in deviated, horizontal, deep water and ERD wells or challenging vertical wells.

RTDO Solution includes DrillScene® and DrillExpect®.

  • DrillScene is a real-time advanced dynamic monitoring, trend analysis and forecasting software. DrillScene autodetects the symptoms leading to drilling event, NPT. Send alarms or notifications to the drilling team well ahead of time.
  • As soon as DrillScene anticipates drilling issues, DrillExpect™ (a drilling simulator) uses real-time data to optimise drilling parameters, run What-if Scenarios, Look-Ahead Analysis, to improve drilling performance, reduce NPT, ILT, or prevent hazards anticipated by DrillScene®.

Drill Insight has been assisting Sekal AS with business development, sales, and drilling advisory services. Currently Drillinsight highly skilled, expertiences and trained Drilling Advisors are working with Sekal Aberdeen Ltd. for assisting operators in North Sea, such as, AkerBP, Equinor, etc.

ENABLE OPERATORS TO BRING THEIR WELL PLAN DIGITALLY TO THE RIG FOR EXECUTION

ENHANCE WELL LIFECYCLE EFFICIENCY BY AUTO0MATING AND INTEGRATING DIGITAL DRILLING ECOCYSTEM.

Keystone has been doing an excellent job in establishing a framework, developing an open, standardised, structured digital drilling ecosystem by automation and integration while bringing well plan data all the way to the rig! KeyStone addresses the demand for a digitalization platform for the supply chain within the domain of drilling. KeyStone provides a Smart HUB to enable operators to bring their well plan digitally to the rig for execution. Elements of the well plan is harvested digitally from existing systems at the operator to populate a digital Time Planner that can create digital Rig Action Plans for execution by the Drilling Control System. In addition, this enables access to the latest drilling information at the fingertips of personnel executing the well plan. Cost wise, it’s a very cost effective software.

Keystone Differentiators compared to other software in the market:

  • Unlike other technology providers who provide standalone software in logistics or developing digital Detailed Operating Procedure (DOP) with manual inputs; Keystone automatically configures DOP or Rig Action Plan using API connectors to Well Plan, Well Design, Well Construction applications (For example, LandMark suite, OliaSoft, Petrel Platform), real-time data aggregation and management software, such as,  SiteCom, Interact, InSite.  Thus Keystone enhance drilling efficiency by automating and integrating entire digital drilling ecosystem including well design, well plan, well construction, time estimation, dynamic digitised rig action plan (RAP/ DOP), detailed operating procedure, time planner, lookahead, cost time tracker, tools, master equipment list, resource plan, lessons learned, ERP. This is extremely cost effective, easy to use, cloud based solution that creates API connectors to yours or any third party ecosystem.
  • Keystone uses “Smart Hub” which act as a ‘Single Source of Truth’ to enhance drilling efficiency by establishing framework and creating an open, standardized and structured wellbore planning, execution, and digital drilling ecosystem that orchestrates the exchange of plans between systems while enforcing standardized plan structures from well construction, time estimation, and the time planner to the rig action plan and its connection to a rig control  system, drilling automation.
  • Less manual input is required by drilling engineers while bringing well plan data all the way to the rig. Automatic configuration of digital application for drilling automation with real-time information will reduce the requirements for 24/7 manual operation.

IWELLBOOK: DIGITAL ASSURANCE OF WELL DATA

A WELL ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA FOCUSED WELL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE, PROVIDING ASSURANCE TO YOUR WELLS PERFORMANCE STANDARDS.

Elogix

Elogix’ iWellBook, a digital orchestration software performs the mundane but critical follow up tasks and frees up the time of Operational and Supervisory personnel for real engineering work.

We take existing paper based workflows, customize OUR software to your needs, digitize your work flows and support daily during rig activities.

Key benefits:

  • A well acceptance criteria focused well construction software providing assurance to your well performance This results in the ability to customize, digitize and integration to existing workflows with immediate affect.
  • Bring meaningful Digitization processes to your operations.
  • Seamless operations, visible, trackable, compliant, auditable review processes and documentation.
  • iWellBook ‘brings alive’ the Drilling Engineering Program during the execution phase to ensure compliance to design. Supports quality of well delivery.

iWellBook is currently used by operators, such as, Inpex and Woodside, as a means to ensure compliance to well design during the execution phase (prior to and during operations).  This encompasses a Digital Orchestration solution during the Execution Phase of well activities (Drilling, Completion, Workover, Intervention). This Realtime Digital extension of Drilling Engineering Program into the execution phase will further enhance Operational Excellence and Quality Wells by extended the best in class engineering design process to allow

  1. Engineering of well acceptance milestones ahead of execution
  2. Management during execution and
  3. Compliance post execution, further strengthening the ability to deliver quality wells, reducing the likelihood of potential rework, ensuring well integrity and well production deliverability.
  4. Further enhance time and cost saving and allow real-time situational awareness for all parties performing well acceptance milestones (contractors, drilling personnel, operations coordinators, reviewers/ auditors) without time and effort wasted in from well rework or ineffective meetings, calls etc.
  • Established in Stavanger in 2016
  • Headquarter in Stavanger, Norway and locations in Perth (Australia), Singapore and Houston (US).
  • Current workforce: 5 people in customer support and development and up to 15 software engineers (as required).
  • We facilitate digitalization and assurance of existing workflows and engineering systems in the well construction space.
  • We provide ‘Software as a Service’ fully supporting implementation and day to day management.
