Shell Trinidad and Tobago Ltd. awarded McDermott a front-end engineering design (FEED) contract for the Manatee gas development project. Under the contract scope, McDermott will provide FEED services for a wellhead platform, export pipeline system, shore approach, midstream pipeline, and onshore control room. According to McDermott, the award follows the successful completion of an early contract engagement with Shell. Engineering and execution planning efforts will be led by McDermott's team in Houston with support from Kuala Lumpur; Chennai, India; and Altamira, Mexico. The Manatee field is in Block 6(d) offshore Trinidad and Tobago in water depths of around 91 m.

This webcast is setting the scene for a series of talks and will touch upon some standards and process improvement at the industry level (with showcases from Malaysia) and its key principles and value impacts, focusing mainly on Integrated Asset Development & Management (IADM) throughout field/asset lifecycle from exploration stage down to decommissioning and abandonment stage with a focus on Field Development Projects. Dr Rahim graduated from Heriot-Watt University/UK with more than 22 years industrial and research experiences in Middle East, North Sea and Malaysia/SE Asia. He is currently the Chief Technical Officer (CTO) and Group Technical Authority (GTA) & Custodian- Petroleum/Reservoir Engineering in Field Development and Asset Management & Operation in PETRONAS. He is also Distinguished Industry Advisor and Adjunct Professor at University Technology PETRONAS. He is recognized/served as SPE International Distinguished Lecturer in 2011-2012 seasons, received the 2017 SPE Technical Service Award and 2012 SPE Northern Asia Pacific Regional Technical Award on Reservoir Description and Dynamics, received SPE-Kuala Lumpur "Outstanding Technical Award" for 2015-2017 season, recognized & appointed as a member of SPE Regional Technical Advisory Committee in Asia Pacific.
ADC Energy Ltd. (ADC) formally known as Aberdeen Drilling Consultants Ltd., through its local partner, Onyx IES Sdn. Bhd., has secured a 3-year contract to deliver its rig integrity and inspection services to Petronas Carigali Sdn. ADC Energy will provide inspection and operational assurance audits of mobile offshore drilling units for PCSB's domestic assets. ADC Energy will manage this contract from its Kuala Lumpur office with support from local partner Onyx, having worked with several global operators in the region previously. "Obtaining this contract with PCSB is a huge step in expanding ADC Energy's operations across the Asia Pacific region," said Austin Hay, director at ADC Energy.
_ This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper OTC 31579, “A Successful Case Study of a Collaborative Approach in Operational Optimization Through Adoption of Automated-Drilling-Performance Measurement,” by Muhammad Afiq Arif Normin, TDE Group, and Azlesham Rosli and Meor M.H.M. Hashim, SPE, Petronas, et al. The paper has not been peer reviewed. Copyright 2022 Offshore Technology Conference. Reproduced by permission. _ This paper discusses the strategy devised, the approach implemented, and the challenges experienced in the adoption and implementation of an automated drilling-performance-measurement (ADPM) system to be used onsite and remotely. The stages of the optimization of the ADPM system are broken down into prespud operations, operations, and post-well analysis. The successful result of this deployment has seen total actual savings of 2.94 days throughout the campaign. From 2016 to 2021, the operator gained 39.03 days of actual savings for their rig fleet. The ADPM Tool The ADPM tool was introduced in 2016 as part of the operator’s digitalization effort. The tool was integrated into operations at the Wells Real-Time Center (WRTC) and was managed by a wells technical application champion (WTAC). With this integration in place, the operator aimed to deliver all wells, whether vertical, horizontal, or extended-reach, in the most consistent and efficient way without jeopardizing the operation’s safety. To ensure the investment bore dividends, this initiative required a major collaborative effort. The tool’s main input is the rig’s real-time surface data obtained by mud-logging sensors. The real-time data are transmitted to the WRTC server in Kuala Lumpur and stored. Access to the data is provided to the ADPM tool to extract the necessary data required for rig-state detection. The secondary input for the ADPM tool is the daily drilling report (DDR) prepared by drilling supervisors at the rig site. The extraction of information from the DDRs serves two purposes: to provide information on the activity performed on the surface not detected by rig-state detection and to provide a reference for ADPM personnel during data processing and quality control. Each activity code and subcode associated with the DDR also is integrated into the ADPM database. Merging both data has provided more insight to the project team because a comparison between the activity reported in the DDRs and the activity detected by the ADPM can be highlighted. During the initial phase of ADPM deployment, a list of the key performance indicators (KPIs) was defined and established by the WTAC. This set of KPIs covered the tripping, drilling, and casing and liner operations necessary to determine invisible lost time (ILT). For tripping operations, the critical KPIs are slip time, tripping-in speed, and tripping-out speed. All KPIs are differentiated as having been performed in cased hole or open hole. Next is on-bottom drilling, with five focused KPIs. Finally, three KPIs were dedicated to the casing and liner operations: slips time, average pipe moving speed, and gross running rate. As with tripping operations, all KPIs were differentiated as having been performed in cased hole or open hole except slips time. All KPIs were computed from a single data source (the real-time data).
