  • Session I - What Have we Learned in the First 15 Years of Digital Oilfield?
    Contains 2 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 09/14/2017

    This presentation offers generic insights and lessons learned into the skilled practice of the application of DOF drawn from experiences in several major oil and gas companies and explore a number of topics.

    Digital Oilfield (DOF) and Integrated Operations has been a major performance improvement initiative within many oil and gas companies for much of the last 15 years. It is therefore surprising to find that, although many companies have been successful, many continue to find it difficult to implement the change in the new way of working enabled by DOF.  

    This presentation offers generic insights and lessons learned into the skilled practice of the application of DOF drawn from experiences in several major oil and gas companies and explore a number of topics such as:  history and evolution of DOF; DOF/IO and Collaboration Environment naming conventions and others.  It will also cover key success factors and draw attention to some of the numerous pitfalls to be encountered along the way and end by highlighting some of the new challenges and opportunities in DOF.

  • Session II - Change Management and how to practically implement DOF/IO
    Contains 2 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 11/09/2017

    Implementing and sustaining change in organization takes time and effort. We will summarize the key learnings in the area of change management as applied to the implementation of DOF and IO in oil and gas companies.

    Great strides are being made in Digital Oilfield and Integrated Operations that promote new ways of working, the use of leading edge data and information technologies and new organizational models. Getting full value from the investment in IO, however, means a long-term, sustainable implementation, embraced by all stakeholders involved, and used in the appropriate way, not just for the first 3 months, but for the considerable future.  

    Implementing and sustaining change in organization takes time and effort and in this session we will explore the following areas:

    • People. Process and Organizational Change:
      • Practical Experience
    • Leadership
    • DOF and IO at low oil price
    • What can we learn from other industries
    • Career
      • Young Engineers: This is how you are going to be working; Career Advice; Reflections
    • Scaling of DOF across an organization
    • An example of where many of the learning's have been implemented

    We will summarize the key learnings in the area of change management as applied to the implementation of DOF and IO in oil and gas companies.
