The following is a supplement to the customer cases about drilling simulators, which show the remarkable results achieved by different companies after adopting drilling simulation systems such as ESIM-FCC11:
Case 1: Middle East oil giant achieves 20% efficiency improvement
An international oil company optimized the well deployment plan through drilling simulators during exploration in the Middle East block. The system integrates 30 years of geological data and builds a high-precision 3D reservoir model, successfully avoiding the drilling of 3 invalid wells, saving more than 40 million US dollars in costs, and improving mining efficiency by 20%10. The company specifically pointed out that the simulator’s penetration simulation accuracy for complex salt dome structures reached 92%, far exceeding the industry average13.
Case 2: Norway Equinor’s intelligent breakthrough
After deploying an AI-enhanced simulation system in the North Sea oil field, the Norwegian National Petroleum Company (Equinor) achieved two major breakthroughs: first, through a real-time data closed-loop system, the water injection pressure parameters of 15 wells were automatically adjusted, increasing the annual output of the oil field by 15%; second, using
Challenge:
The traditional training methods relied heavily on classroom lectures and occasional field trips, which were not only time-consuming but also limited in their ability to replicate real-world drilling scenarios. XYZ Oil & Gas needed a solution that could provide a more immersive and realistic training experience.
Solution:
After thorough research, XYZ Oil & Gas chose the ESIM-FCC11 Drilling Simulation Training System from Esimtech. The system's combination of advanced computer technology, virtual reality, and rigorous physical-mathematical models appealed to the company's desire for a state-of-the-art training solution.
Benefits:
- Immersive Training Experience: The simulator provided a realistic and immersive training environment, enabling drillers to practice various operations under controlled conditions.
- Flexibility
- Safety: By training in a simulated environment, XYZ Oil & Gas was able to significantly reduce the risk of accidents and equipment damage.
- Cost-Effectiveness: The simulator reduced the need for frequent field trips and allowed for more efficient use of training resources.
Quotes:
