June 16, 2022
Schlumberger
As offshore oil and gas targets and their development rapidly become more complex, operators need greater speed and certainty in decision making. Subsea Live* data-driven performance service enables operators to proceed with confidence and transition from reactive to proactive operations by integrating OEM expertise with automation, physics-based simulation, and AI to extract actionable insights in a secure collaborative digital solution. This automated process analyzes real-time data while accounting for the dynamic nature of production to keep operators informed—not just for the status of equipment health and operational performance, but also with data-driven actionable insights, giving them advance intelligence for production optimization and for anticipating and mitigating performance issues and failures to enhance asset performance. *Mark of Schlumberger
