3. The public sector and the industry have
common data challenges

4. Semantic Web
“Here in the early part of the 21st century, the Web is still in its infancy and the scope of
unsolved digital data challenges is simply enormous.
To many in the software industry, myself included, it seems inevitable that the next great
Web revolution must address these universal acknowledged data problems.
The Semantic Web is a revolutionary path forward for data processing and metadata
specifications, it will have an exceptionally broad impact on every aspect of all types of
software.”
Semantic Web is build on two languages (Recommended 2004):
• Resource Definition Framework (RDF)
• Web Ontology Language (OWL)
Semantic Web of today has scaling issues
Web generations:
Web 1.0 Documents
Web 2.0 Human (Facebook, Utube, Twitter, LinkedIn, …)
Web 3.0 Software (Semantic Web) (2010-2020?)
Web 4.0 Operating system for applications

DATA INFORMATION

16. OLF has focus on data
Data
Domain - OLF has focus on terminology (ISO 15926)
(3 levels of data integration
- Dictionary
- Taxonomy
- Ontology)
IT - OLF has focus on transformation and routing
(Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) and iRing)
Availability and quality of data
is the basis for:
 work processes
 operational decisions

17. 1717
Information quality
 Information quality
 A common dictionary
(HSE, drilling, development,
production, logistics,
operation and maintenance)
 Deployments
 Daily Drilling Report
 Daily Production Report
 Monthly Production Report
 Yearly Environmental Report
 RFID deployment
• Personnel
• Container
• Drill string
• Equipment
 EqHub – a common database
for standard equipment

18. Semantics and IT architecture
 This approach avoids the
exponentially growing
complexity of integrating
applications by using the
oil & gas ontology as a
reference for mapping
 The reference IT
architecture developed by
OLF is an open
infrastructure for loosely-
coupled integrated
applications based on
service orientated
principles

19. Main Objective for IO in the High North (2008-2012)
Main objective: Demonstrate
a reliable digital platform for
Integrated Operation
Generation 2 (IO G2)
Requirements: Come from
use cases within
 Drilling & Completion
 Production & Reservoir
management
 Operation & Maintenance
Key element: Handling of
real-time data across
applications, disciplines,
locations and organizations

Least Ambiguity
Greatest Ambiguity
AmbiguityScale
Interoperability as reducing ambiguity
• Because we focus on doing
business much information may be
implicit or ambiguous when we
exchange or integrate information
• Ambiguity when exchanging and
integrating information represents
risk, requiring effort to resolve.
• The higher the ambiguity,
the higher the risk & cost.
• When new business uses or
interfaces arise, new ambiguities may
be significant, and the
costs & risks may be repeated.
• Ambiguity
= Lifecycle Cost & Risk
I’ll just give you my data and
you’ll work it out.
ie ”not my problem”
If we use semantic-web,
technology maybe we could
automate this more ?
ie “iRING technology”
OK, let’s at least agree to
use the same terms.
ie “common dictionary”
Would it help if I told you how
I was using the data ?
ie “usage patterns &
templates”

33. Exploration and Production Information
Management Association (EPIM)

34. E&P Information Management Association (EPIM)
OLF initiated EPIM and its content:
EPIM was established by and for the operators on the NCS for
managing common industry solutions such as:
 LicenseWeb
 AuthorityWeb
 EnvironmentWeb
 EqHub
Furthermore, EPIM has the administration of the content
(semantic) and the format of the XML schemas used for:
 Daily drilling report (ISO 15926 - taxonomy)
 Daily production report (ISO 15926 - taxonomy)
 Monthly production report (ISO 15926 - taxonomy)
 Yearly environmental report (ISO 15926 – taxonomy)
www.epim.no

35. 35
EqHub - the concept
pre-qualified information delivered once and for all
 Operators contract
specifications to reflect EqHub
requirement
 Operators aligned with same
information requirements
 Information is structured
according to ISO 15926
 EqHub certified information
pre-approved by operators
 EqHub is owned and operated
by EPIM
 EqHub will use a membership
funding model (ref. Achilles)

36. 36
The EqHub’s content is for the oil and gas industry
 Most important offshore
prospective areas are:
 Brazil
 Gulf of Mexico and Alaska
 Vest coast of Africa
 North Sea
 Offshore Australia
 Asia – several areas
 Barents Sea
 Established dialogues with
representatives for Achilles
and PCA in Rio de Janeiro
and Perth

37. 37
Deployment RFID in oil and gas industry
Deployment of RFID in oil and gas
– an OLF Guideline for:
 Personnel
 Containers
 Drill strings
 Mobile equipment
 Fixed equipment
The guideline is based on ISO standards
ISO 15926

38. Summing up

39. Integrated Operations reduce risks
 The Norwegian Snorre Field had
an uncontrolled leakage of gas
from a well in 2004
 Maintenance of a well
 A kick occurs and huge amount
of gas leaks into the ground
close to the sea bottom
 The gas is also filling up the
water below floating platform
 Quite a few decisions were not
according to regulations and
good practices
 It serious event that could have
been a new Piper Alpha
accident
39
Terje Overvik
Senior Executive Vice President, Statoil
(2006)
“The Snorre event would not have happened
if Integrated Operations had been implemented”

40. Integrated Operations reduce risks
40
IO provides:
 Transparency
 Real time information
shared offshore/
onshore
 Improved work processes
 Onshore deciding
 Offshore executing

41. Integrated Operations
 IO is access to offshore information in real time onshore
 IO is integrated work processes across drilling, production,
operation and maintenance in real time
 IO is safer, cleaner, faster and better decisions
 IO has a potential of at least $ 50 billions on the NCS
 IO is a quiet revolution that has changed offshore operations
already and more will come with IO G2
