Abstract
Nowadays oil & gas industry is receiving a bulk of data than ever before from its onsite wells where may hundred miles away from operator's headquarter, which benefits us monitoring and analyzing those digital fortune in a data hub, saving a lot of expenditure and improving the efficiency compared to old-fashioned approach which requires senior engineers with rich experience working on wellsite. In this way, the oil & gas operators save money tremendously on human cost under the booming of drilling operations. While, could we do more to dig out further values from those data? Make our operations less dependable on limited resources, the senior drilling engineers, especially when the oil and gas industry face the chasm of human resources sustainability after the hit of downturn, also make the plain real-time data more intuitive and self-explanatory to the operation decision makers in an unprecedented way. What's more, could we make our drilling activities more visible and interactive?
This paper is going to introduce using augmented reality technology to create an intuitive platform to integrate and present real-time operation parameters and data. Like any revolutionary method or technology, it could improve the industry efficiency in a non-negligible way, help us manage massive real-time data more effectively and efficiently. The 3D holographic projection presents dynamic models or systems based on the data stream and graphic algorithm, which evolves our industry from 2D world to 3D world, combining the reality environment with the digital world, creating a digital reflection of the real wellsite, bottom hole assembly (BHA), well trajectories, lithological layers, etc. Thanks to the visualization technologies and augmented reality, we can create a digital twin of physic world for those engineers, technicians, managers using holographic method to interact with, scale up and down, analyzing in a better awareness.
In this paper, we will describe a digital drilling wellsite which is established on operator's Real Time Operation Center (RTOC)office to monitor and analyze live field operations, the operator could have an overview of their on-site operations, tracking the equipment performance, engineering parameters and downhole status to enhance the understanding and interaction with the on-going field operations. The wellbore trajectory model gives the team a superior knowledge by combining the engineering data or geological data. Not only help well placement in desired reservoir but also improve the anti-collision concept in direction drilling. This model is extreme meaningful when engineers need a discussion to optimize or change their drilling plan as it is 3D visible and able to interact with. We will continues digging out further more value of the real-time data collected from wellsite to educate us find the cost-saving ways which improve our performance and eliminate the complicated conditions that normally resulted in Non production time (NPT) event. For our oil & gas industry, we are just start to have a more adventure and prosperous journey in digitalizing transforming.
