PRODML: The Most Viable Way to
Enable Production Interoperability

The Opportunity:
 Production
application domain highly fragmented
 “Doing nothing” implies point to point integration: costly,
slow, very high maintenance  Opportunity to fix this!

The Objective:
 Make
integration cheaper, faster, simpler
 Enable dynamic creation “value loops” with new
workflows and applications added “on the fly”

Supply chain models “standards” vs “consolidated”
– many vendors, public standards
 G&G/Reservoir – few vendors, de facto standards
 Production – industry standards approach PRODML
 Scada

Slide #4
PRODML – Material Progress 2006-7


A common language for production data has
been created
Commercial application has commenced, eg:
 Production
Reporting (Statoil)
 Waterflood management (Chevron)
 DTS data management (Weatherford)
 First Commercial Applications (Schlumberger)

R&D Proofs of Concept have been substantial:
 Gas
Lift Optimisation
 Downhole sensors
 5,000 well dataset transfers
 Network Model changes moving between applications
