Offshore Solution

Challenges:

- Construction scheduling of dependent tasks
- Maximize utilization of semi-submersible rigs
- Anchor point limitation for vessels

 

Offshore Drilling & Construction

 

A schematic of the production network is created and the scheduler is used to manage construction timelines, capacities, capital and drilling schedules.

 

 

A development plan is created using a series of construction tasks and drilling tasks

 

 

Scheduled tasks for the development scenario are presented in a GANTT chart

 

 

The GANTT schedule can present resource utilization of the semi-submersible rigs, construction vessels and anchor points

 

 

The platform’s production forecast shows the impact of the capacity expansions and drilling programs

 

 

Working interest economic indicators for the production sharing contract show the viability of the development plan

 

 

Change Drilling Program to be “Drill to Fill”

 

Drill to fill monitors volumes through a network node a controls drilling program well start dates

 

 

 

Results – New program avoids over capacity

 

Drill to Fill Controls the Drilling Schedule while honoring all resource rules, including:

Gathering system construction

 

 

Results – Drill to Fill program can be Tuned
