Background
- Production reporting and Integrated operations in the North Sea region
 TietoEnator and Petoro initiated a common project for Performance and
Production Management
– Standardisation and automation
– Focus on Production
 Integrated operations initiative
– Started by Norwegian Oil Industry Association's (OLF's) with (Shell, BP,
Chevron, Exxon, Statoil, ConocoPhillips, Total, etc.)
– The overall program started 2001/2002 until at least 2008
 Efficient real time data gathering
 Further develop the digital infrastructure on the Norwegian continental shelf
 Establish a common platform for data integration across field development
phases, disciplines and companies based on international standards and newtechnology
 These two initiatives led to the specific project on Production reporting run by
OLF and TietoEnator

Benefits
Definitions of concepts from important business processes in upstream oil and gas
industry are available on Internet and can be used consistent by operators, service
and engineering companies, and solution providers world wide. This enable
information sharing and efficient collaboration across disciplines and between
operators, partners, authorities and their suppliers.

Production data project
- Overview
 Goals
– One Industry solution in Norway – with all major stakeholders
– One common set of definitions for an extensive set of terms used in the production
area (data elements)
– Standard solution – available for all, built on well known and proven international
standards and structures
 Steps
– Define common production terms (Implemented as ISO 15926)
– Develop XML exchange format (Based on POSC WITSML)
– Implement a data exchange solution for the North Sea Oil&Gas fields (Based on
existing hub, LicenseWeb)
 Benefits
– Easy information sharing between companies/applications/work processes
– Strong and flexible XML structure enabling dynamic reporting possibilities
(Aggregations of data over time and cross fields/wells )
– Allows for timely decision making
– An important step to achieving full eOperations advantages

according to ISO 15926.
– Production Data elements are
defined for use (1500 terms)
– All Oil&Gas Operating
Companies in Norway has
agreed on the definitions
One common set of definitions
across companies and fields to
achieve common understanding of

According to international standards
(POSC)
WITSML / PRODML cooperation and
compliance
W3C standard
We have worked closely with POSC to
agree on a structure flexible enough to
handle both data exchange and
reporting including aggregation of data.
We have established a generic database
for exchange of XML documents and
other documents
– Is currently implementing the
standard in this database

Standards & POSC
- Outcome of cooperation with POSC
 Agreed on a common approach to XML format
 Established a common understanding for business and reporting
needs
 Agreed to a common approach for solving issues related to
relationship between production data and different field facilities (e.g.
well, platform, pipeline)
 Agreed upon a more reusable XML structure more suited for a global
production data approach
 Agreed on XML structure that will support both reporting needs and
possible data exchange needs
 Agreed XML structure supports different reporting requirements
 Final outcome: A format suited for more than production data reporting

XML schema, structure and format
- TE / POSC Co-operation results
 Value added
– Allow combination of hierarchical and flat structure
 Hierarchical -> parent/child relations e.g. facility->template->well->wellbore
 Flat -> flexible/generic – very suitable for data exchange
– Suitable for both reporting, data exchange, monitoring and analysis /
aggregation
 Data extraction to generic format – allows multiple output pipes
–
–
–
–
–
–
Allow more complex data analysis / aggregation
Based upon already existing data exchange format : WITSML
Format supports globalization of data
Supports a combined snapshot capturing of data and current field setup
Highly object oriented structure -> high reuse
Format anchored as a part of a possible global standard promoted by
POSC / TE

How to benefit from this work in other O&G regions
 International standards
– Developed by POSC, Oil Companies and TE
– Included in the ISO 15926 standard
 Project includes pilots and can be monitored by companies
– Participating companies in the project are the major Oil Companies
 Developed with regard to be a global standard and available for further
extensions and regional deployment:
– More definitions can be added to the standard
– New data elements can be included in XML structure

Results & Experiences from the pilot
 Recommendation from the OLF
 OLF's Committee for Health, Safety and Operation (HSO) unanimous
approved the recommendation to implement the "Daily Production
Report system" on the Norwegian Continental Shelf in 2006. The work
on this system was initiated by Petoro and has been supported by 7-8
major operators on the NCS.
The project group is planning to establish an implementation priority
list.

Experiences from the Pilot




All companies were satisfied, both operators and partners
Stable and good performance
More data exposed to partners and onshore than earlier
Showed that all partner got the same data more expedient than earlier
 Identified uncommon practice and procedures for data approval
between companies and within team leaders within the same company
– This resulted in a need more sophisticated re-run application
 Identified some improvements areas in the XML schemas
– Feedback already provided to and discussed with POSC

Current plans
 Move the pilots into production
 Prioritize new DPR implementations for Norwegian shelf
 New field implementations for:
– Exxon, Statoil, BP, Marathon,
– Some implementations will be planned into 2007
 Establish an operational environment in TE and Customer sites
 Establish a operational support group for customers
