據(jù)阿拉伯貿(mào)易網(wǎng)2022年5月18日迪拜報(bào)道，全球領(lǐng)先的數(shù)據(jù)分析公司GlobalData表示，數(shù)字技術(shù)正在通過(guò)簡(jiǎn)化流程和創(chuàng)造新的操作領(lǐng)域來(lái)改善全球油氣行業(yè)。  

這些數(shù)字技術(shù)非常適合開(kāi)發(fā)新的油氣儲(chǔ)量，提高作業(yè)效率，減少甲烷排放。

GlobalData稱(chēng)，數(shù)字技術(shù)可以為油氣資產(chǎn)提供可操作性建議，幫助公司減少資本和運(yùn)營(yíng)支出。

提高盈利能力  

包括在日常油氣作業(yè)中采用諸如人工智能(AI)、大數(shù)據(jù)、云計(jì)算、網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全、物聯(lián)網(wǎng)(IoT)和機(jī)器人等數(shù)字技術(shù)的數(shù)字化，通過(guò)簡(jiǎn)化運(yùn)營(yíng)和削減成本，使油氣行業(yè)能夠提高生產(chǎn)率和盈利能力。

全球石油巨頭正越來(lái)越多地與技術(shù)供應(yīng)商合作，以開(kāi)發(fā)滿足他們需求的定制數(shù)字解決方案。 例如，法國(guó)道達(dá)爾能源公司與美國(guó)國(guó)際商用機(jī)器公司（IBM）合作開(kāi)發(fā)了預(yù)測(cè)性鉆井分析技術(shù)，以幫助精確鉆井。  

同樣，挪威能源巨頭Equinor也利用其在北海地區(qū)的勘探和生產(chǎn)(E&P)專(zhuān)業(yè)知識(shí)，在北海業(yè)務(wù)中開(kāi)發(fā)和部署了其數(shù)字孿生產(chǎn)品Echo。 根據(jù)GlobalData的題為“石油和天然氣數(shù)字化-專(zhuān)題研究”報(bào)告，諸如數(shù)字雙胞胎和預(yù)測(cè)性維護(hù)等概念正在不斷改進(jìn)，以適應(yīng)石油和天然氣價(jià)值鏈的差異化應(yīng)用場(chǎng)景。  

創(chuàng)造同步生態(tài)系統(tǒng)  

GlobalData油氣分析師拉溫德拉·普拉尼克評(píng)論道：“此前，由于缺乏熟練技術(shù)人員、對(duì)數(shù)據(jù)安全的擔(dān)憂以及調(diào)整老化資產(chǎn)的成本效益不確定性，油氣行業(yè)對(duì)數(shù)字技術(shù)的應(yīng)用一直受到阻礙。然而，由于數(shù)字技術(shù)有能力改變行業(yè)，并創(chuàng)建一個(gè)同步的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)，以滿足未來(lái)的能源需求，越來(lái)越多的油氣公司正在使用數(shù)字技術(shù)升級(jí)資產(chǎn)，以實(shí)現(xiàn)長(zhǎng)期收益。”

普拉尼克說(shuō)：“減少設(shè)備停機(jī)時(shí)間，同時(shí)提高運(yùn)營(yíng)性能仍然是增加公司收入的關(guān)鍵領(lǐng)域。生產(chǎn)商也越來(lái)越重視數(shù)字化工作流程，以提高操作可視性，改善決策制定。”

Leading oil and gas firms are tapping into digital technologies

Digital technologies are improving the oil and gas industry by streamlining processes and creating new frontiers for operations, says GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company. 

These technologies are well suited to tap new hydrocarbon deposits, boost operational efficiency, and reduce methane emissions.

Digital technologies can deliver actionable insights for an oil and gas asset and help companies to reduce their capital and operating expenditures, says the report.

Improving profitability

Digitalisation, which involves the adoption of digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, cloud computing, cybersecurity, the Internet of Things (IoT), and robotics in day-to-day oil and gas operations, is enabling the industry to improve productivity and profitability by streamlining operations and cutting costs. 

Leading oil and gas players are increasingly collaborating with technology vendors in a bid to develop custom digital solutions that address their needs. For instance, TotalEnergies has collaborated with IBM to develop predictive drilling analytics to aid precision drilling. 

Similarly, Equinor has developed and deployed its digital twin, Echo, in its North Sea operations by leveraging its exploration and production (E&P) expertise in the region. Concepts such as digital twins and predictive maintenance are increasingly being modified to suit the different use cases of the oil and gas value chain, according to GlobalData’s report, ‘Digitalisation in Oil and Gas – Thematic Research’. 

Synchronised ecosystem

Ravindra Puranik, Oil and Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “The adoption of digital technologies in the oil and gas industry has been previously hindered by the shortage of skilled technicians, concerns over data security, and cost-benefit uncertainty for adapting aging assets. However, since the technologies have the ability to transform the industry and create a synchronised ecosystem to meet future energy demands, an increasing number of oil and gas companies are upgrading their assets with digital technologies for long-term gains. 

“Minimising equipment downtime while enhancing operational performance remain key focus areas for increasing company revenues. There is also a growing emphasis among producers on digitalising workflows to enhance operational visibility for improved decision making.”
