Abstract South Oman has several pre-Cambrian reservoirs that are highly pressured (400-1000 bar), deep (3-5 km) and critically sour (H2S up to 10%). The combined STOIIP of these reservoirs makes it one of the largest gas EOR projects in the world. The objective here is to highlight the key performance indicators and digitalization techniques used for continuous and effective well, reservoir and facility management (WRFM) and production optimization, while honoring the facility constraints and gas export requirements. Real time pressure data such as tubing head pressures, injection/production rates along with other data including maps, static pressures and production logs are used to define an appropriate set of performance metric at various levels, e.g. reservoir, sector or well. Digitalization of surveillance data helps in real time production optimization such as offtake management based on creaming curves according to gas sink availability and facility constraints. Key business performance indicators include gas utilization efficiency; MGI performance indicators include incremental oil, throughput, instantaneous and cumulative voidage replacement ratios, gas breakthrough level and time, ratio of reservoir pressure to the target minimum miscibility pressure; and facility constraints are optimized through gas balance, along with tracking field performance against the initial FDP forecasts. Real time performance data is tracked using a commercial Real-Time Data Analysis tool (RTDA) and Database Analytics Visualization Tool (DAVT), with surveillance indicators targeted at well, reservoir and facility level. The above-defined Key Performance Indicators (KPI) are tracked against predictions from the field development plan in web-based portal developed at PDO (Nibras). Digitalization has enabled quick and effective monitoring of these KPI, short-term optimization of injection distribution and offtake rates to maximize oil production and overall value within facilities constraints and varying export gas commitments based on South Oman Gas Line (SOGL) network optimization. Using dimensionless plots and a standardized set of parameters help in developing a common understanding and benchmarking the MGI reservoir response with analogs and amongst different reservoirs. This work presents a set of performance KPIs and short-term optimization methodology using digitalization and LEAN framework that are tracked in a web-based portal, RTDA and DAVT. It provides means to facilitate offtake decisions to meet variable export requirements while honoring facilities constraints, assess reservoir performance, providing valuable insights that helps in speedy reservoir management decisions. This process has been replicated across PDO for all related MGI projects and can benefit other development types, e.g. chemical/steam injection.

Abstract The paper describes a project known internally as "InWell" to address multiple requirements in Repsol Drilling & Completions. InWell is defined by a new Operating Model comprising Governance, People, Process, Functions and Technology. This paper addresses changes to the Technology element - often referred to as "Digitalization". The paper includes a discussion about the business transformation strategy and case studies for addressing three of 18 functionalities identified in the first round of development. The InWell development strategy followed four steps; identification of performance issues, envisioning of a future operating model, identification of functionalities required/supporting this operating model and matching to digital solutions. Our case studies focus on three functionalities provided by three separate companies, Unification of Planning and Compliance, Real Time Data aggregation and Key Performance Indicators. Each functionality was addressed with an existing commercial application customized to meet specific requirements. A corporate web-based Well Construction Process (WCP) was initially piloted and then extended to include all well projects. The WCP identifies the key Tasks that must be completed per project, and these are all tracked. Data from this application is used by a third-party Business Analytics application via an API. Real time data from many sites and a wide range of sources was aggregated and standardized, Quality Controlled and stored within a private secure cloud. The data collation service is an essential building block for current third-party applications such as the operating centre and is a prerequisite for the goal of increased automation. A suite of Operator specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and data analytics services were developed for drilling and completions. Homogenized KPIs for all business units provide data for objective performance management and apples-to-apples comparison. Results are presented via custom dashboards, reports, and integrations with third party applications to meet a wide range of requirements. During a four-month Pilot Phase the InWell Project delivered € 2.5 million in tangible savings through improvements in operational performance. In the first 12 months € 16 million in savings were attributed to InWell. By 2022 forecast savings are expected to exceed € 60 million (Figures 1 & 2). The value of Intangible benefits is thought to exceed these objective savings. Figure 1 The Business Case for InWell – Actual & Projected Savings and Costs. Figure 2 InWell Services addressing Value Levers and quantified potential impact. A multi-sourced digital strategy can produce quick gains, is easily adapted, and provides high value at low risk. The full benefit of digital transformation can only be realised when supported by an effective business operating model.

The article is devoted to assessing the effect of the implementation of information technologies in non-profit organizations. The purpose of the assessment is to evaluate the effect of IT implementation and its impact on key performance indicators of an organization. The indicators characterizing the results of the organization’s activities in accordance with the State Assignment and the results of commercial activities were used as the key performance indicators. For federal state budget NPOs, it has been shown that a positive IT effect for auxiliary business processes does not directly ensure positive performance indicators for the core business processes. Hidden effects of the use of IT were assessed by changes of the indicators of the core business processes. Performance indicators characterizing the results of commercial activities may demonstrate a negative effect. Understanding the specifics of non-profit organizations, as well as metrics and performance parameters characterizing the effectiveness of such organizations, is important to ensure a correct approach to the digitalization of business processes and their performance management.

The main purpose of this work is to represent an alternative effective model for measuring the quality of healthcare (SERVQUAL) considering the geographical location of the under examination healthcare sectors. Based on that consideration, a new modeling is taking place introducing a spatial interaction between neighboring regions (spatial-SERVQUAL model). New directions are analyzed implementing specific questionnaires taking advantage of the spatial information given by the evaluation of the model. Moreover the role of spatial information in the health sector in relation to, for example, local health improvement performance management, is analyzed to support needs assessment and resource targeting as one of the principal action points in healthcare policies. Finally, the benefits of the GIS systems are illustrated, combined with the spatial assumptions, introducing a real-time health and disease monitoring tool to identify significant health trends in real-time data streams and geographic information systems.

Balanced Scorecards

It is paradoxical that, although several major technological discoveries such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Nuclear Medicine and Digital Radiology, which facilitate improvement in patient care, have been satisfactorily embraced by the medical community, this has not been the case with Healthcare Informatics. Thus, it can be argued that issues such as Data Management, Data Modeling, and Knowledge Management have a long way to go before reaching the maturity level that other technologies have achieved in the medical sector. This chapter proposes to explore trends and best practices regarding knowledge management from the viewpoint of performance management, based upon the use of Key Performance Indicators in healthcare systems. By assessing both balanced scorecards and quality assurance techniques in healthcare, it is possible to foresee an electronic healthcare record centered approach which drives information flow at all levels of the day-to-day process of delivering effective and managed care, and which finally moves towards information assessment and knowledge discovery.
