挑战
Santos Ltd. 是亚太地区领先的石油和天然气生产商之一,经营着澳大利亚最大的勘探和生产业务之一。其广泛的业务依赖于庞大而高度复杂的资产网络,包括数千公里的管道、油井、泵、压缩机和其他设备。保持这些专业基础设施正常运转是公司的首要任务,因为任何停机都可能中断生产并限制盈利能力。多年来,该公司一直在利用 SCADA 等物联网 (IoT) 技术从其资产网络中的数千个传感器收集信息。挑战在于收集和筛选这些数据,识别表明资产故障可能性很高的模式,确定最紧急的问题,并及时将正确的信息发送给工程师,以便他们采取有效行动。
关于客户
Santos Ltd. 是亚太地区领先的石油和天然气生产商之一,为澳大利亚和亚洲的家庭、企业和主要行业提供能源服务。该公司经营着澳大利亚最大的勘探和生产业务之一。其广泛的业务依赖于庞大而高度复杂的资产网络,包括数千公里的管道、油井、泵、压缩机和其他设备。Santos 报告的年收入为 40 亿澳元(29 亿美元)。该公司的网络遍布广阔的地理区域,其中大部分位于偏远甚至恶劣的环境中,例如澳大利亚内陆地区。
解决方案
为了创建有效的设备故障警报系统,Santos 着手进行预测建模。在 IBM SPSS Lab Services 的帮助下,该公司开始开展试点项目,从多个来源提取结构化和非结构化数据,包括:设备趋势数据库,用于跟踪 SCADA 数据(例如压缩机的运行速度);操作员轮班日志,现场操作员记录其活动的系统;计算机化维护管理系统,用于维护资产及其维护历史记录;资产损失和可用性系统,用于追踪生产损失来源的会计解决方案。使用预测模型,该公司可以对任何故障发出早期警告,并深入了解了优化电源以提高效率的新方法。

Case Study
Taking Oil and Gas Exploration to the Next Level
DownUnder GeoSolutions (DUG) wanted to increase computing performance by 5 to 10 times to improve seismic processing. The solution must build on current architecture software investments without sacrificing existing software and scale computing without scaling IT infrastructure costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.
Case Study
Refinery Saves Over $700,000 with Smart Wireless
One of the largest petroleum refineries in the world is equipped to refine various types of crude oil and manufacture various grades of fuel from motor gasoline to Aviation Turbine Fuel. Due to wear and tear, eight hydrogen valves in each refinery were leaking, and each cost $1800 per ton of hydrogen vented. The plant also had leakage on nearly 30 flare control hydrocarbon valves. The refinery wanted a continuous, online monitoring system that could catch leaks early, minimize hydrogen and hydrocarbon production losses, and improve safety for maintenance.
