The oil and gas industry is among the most technology-laden sectors of the business world. The drilling, refining, and distribution processes are all extremely detail-oriented, and any missteps can cause significant financial losses.

At the Offshore Technology Conference 2019 this week in Houston, the event’s organizers recognized the most innovative products with Spotlight Awards. Several of these new products stand to make offshore jobs safer and could save companies millions in the process.

SIEMENS

The company’s BlueVault energy storage solution ensures continuity of power to offshore infrastructure while helping to reduce emissions in the process.

Baker Hughes

The GE subsidiary showed of NovaLT16 at OTC 2019. The two-shaft gas turbine is designed to operate for 35,000 hours between maintenance checks, the equivalent of four years of consecutive run time for the gas module.

GreenPin

There are few things as fundamental to rig operations than the lifting, strapping and tying down of items. GreenPin tycan fiber rope is a lightweight but extremely durable solution to these processes.

Stress Engineering Services

Rigs must be constantly examined and inspected to ensure safety. Any hold up in drilling operations due to a mechanical issue not only puts workers closer to a hazardous situation and also costs money. Stress Engineering’s predictive maintenance technology allows for inspections to take place thoroughly without halting drilling operations.

TechnipFMC

Subsea infrastructure poses serious cost and production challenges. TechnipFMC’s ‘Subsea 2.0’ aims to reduce the seafloor technology footprint by half, allowing for a simpler and more manageable system below the rig.

Sunergise buys Infratec to move from rooftops into utility-scale solar

Sunergise buys Infratec to move from rooftops into utility-scale solar

Sunergise is buying Infratec from WEL Networks for an undisclosed price. The commercial rooftop specialist, which has installed more than 50MW, gains utility-scale project delivery capability it did not have before.

  • 01By megawatts, the buyer is the smaller company: Sunergise has installed more than 50MW since 2012, while Infratec has built 194MW of solar and 49MWh of batteries.
  • 02Customers with live projects at either company keep their existing contracts and service commitments, but whether Infratec keeps its own name is still undecided.

TGS plans $100M Perito Moreno expansion to move 4.5M more cubic meters a day

TGS plans $100M Perito Moreno expansion to move 4.5M more cubic meters a day

Transportadora de Gas del Sur (TGS) wants to spend $100 million adding 4.5 million cubic meters a day to Argentina's Perito Moreno pipeline, which carries 21 million today. The request awaits Energy Secretariat approval. It comes alongside a $550 million compression project due by late April 2027 that will add 14 million cubic meters a day.

  • 01The $100 million add-on comes alongside an ongoing $550 million compression project on the same pipeline, and TGS plans to submit $70 million of the new spending under Argentina's RIGI investment incentive regime.
  • 02If the compression work and the 4.5 million option both deliver, Perito Moreno's first phase could carry substantially more than its current 21 million cubic meters a day.
  • 03Two milestones could set the pace: the Energy Secretariat's decision on TGS's October 8 request, and late April 2027, when three compression plants are scheduled to add 14 million cubic meters a day.

Sami Alnuaim's new book pushes oil fields toward making their own decisions

Sami Alnuaim's new book pushes oil fields toward making their own decisions

Intelligent oil field plans run into a scale problem. Roughly 70% of oil and gas digital initiatives never get past the pilot stage, so the payoff depends on funding, data ownership and engineering skills.

  • 01Roughly 70% of oil and gas digital initiatives never make it out of the pilot stage.
  • 02A sharper procurement question: which decisions can the system be trusted to make?
  • 03Emissions and safety are leading candidates for scaling intelligent workflows, where data sharing may face less resistance.
