Over the past 10 years, Petrobras have incorporated ESSS’s digital twin solution for drilling monitoring. A Real-time Operating Center (RTOC) with a 24/7 monitoring team simulates all the relevant physical phenomena, having generated over 300 diagnostics and insights to aid decision-making in more than 600 offshore wells. This high level of maturity enabled the tool's expansion, allowing for drilling automation, controlling specific equipment (pump, top drive, draw-works), adhering to operational units based on design criteria such as allowable casing wear, operational window, hole cleaning, and equipment envelopes. The software has been deployed on two Petrobras offshore rigs and is currently running real-time simulations to suggest to the driller optimal speeds for tripping in and tripping out of hole, as well as the best pump startup procedure. Results have shown that the smart twin successfully provided optimal speeds during the drilling of an offshore 8 ½” hole section. Along with complementary technologies, ESSS’s tool can help the company save up to US$100 million per year with the automation of part of its drilling rigs by 2030, with the potential to reduce around 30,000 tons of CO2 per year. Your company can leverage ESSS's real-time drilling monitoring, too. Reach out to one of our experts now to discover how: https://ow.ly/uKsz50UbHww

Petrobras recently confirmed a significant gas discovery in Colombia at the Uchuva-2 well, located 31 kilometers offshore at a water depth of 804 meters. For this operation, Petrobras utilized ESSS’s Caliper Inference, a part of our Real-Time Monitoring Drilling Services. This advanced tool infers the open hole caliper by analyzing differential pressure while pumping a heavier conditioning fluid, positioned in the annular space. By accurately calculating the well's caliper, the solution optimizes cementing planning - calculating slurry volumes and positioning centralizers - without the need for traditional wireline or MWD caliper runs. As a result, it saves 12 hours of rig time per inferred caliper, delivering both time and cost efficiency.
