Aker BP为其石油业务设立软件公司

    中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社挪威斯塔万格报道,当挪威石油公司(Aker BP)决定将其资产和业务数字化时,该公司四处寻找合适的软件公司,但是他们没有找到合适的。
    因此,他们建立了自己的软件公司(Cognite),以创建Aker BP石油产业资产的数字地图,整合泵、热和压力传感器等设备的数据、维修记录甚至员工的数据,以提高效率和安全性。
    不到两年后,Cognite将其软件卖给了Aker BP的竞争对手(瑞典的伦丁石油公司Lundin Petroleum),甚至同意将其实时油田数据与该公司分享,他们认为这是行业第一。
    Cognite表示,通过软件将数据结合起来,比如将流量传感器与实际安装的机器相匹配,该软件可以帮助降低维护成本,延长设备的使用寿命,避免损坏故障。
    数字化工业资产也可以意味着海上需要的人员更少,石油平台的停机时间更少,更有针对性的维护和更好的分析地质数据和阀门压力等信息。
    对于lundin来说,从其位于挪威大陆架上的Edvard Grieg油田与Aker BP的相邻油田共享信息是非常有意义的,因为从类似地质区域的竞争对手那里获得了更多的实时生产数据,这些数据可以帮助它提高自己的石油产量。
    而Aker BP则表示,与石油勘探的地震数据不同,运营数据并不是需要保护的战略知识。
    Aker ASA 连同 Aker BP 拥有超过 75% 的 Cognite股份,他们考虑在两年内将Cognite在股票交易所上市。     詹晓晶摘自路透社
    原文如下:     Norway’s Aker bets on software engineers for its oil business     When the owners of Norwegian oil firm Aker BP (AKERBP.OL) decided to digitize its assets and operations, they searched high and low for the right software company. But they failed to find a suitable one.     So instead they set up their own, Cognite (www.cognite.com), to create digital maps of Aker BP’s oil industry assets, integrating data from equipment such as pumps, heat and pressure sensors, maintenance records and even staff rotas to improve efficiency and safety.     Less than two years later, Cognite is selling its software to Aker BP’s rivals and one competitor, Sweden’s Lundin Petroleum (LUPE.ST), has even agreed to share its real-time oilfield data with Aker in what they say is an industry first.     By combining all the data that typically sits in different digital silos – such as matching flow sensors with the piece of machinery they actually sit on – Cognite says its software can help reduce maintenance costs, extend the lifespan of equipment and avoid damaging breakdowns.     Digitizing industrial assets can also mean fewer people need to be offshore, less downtime for oil platforms, more targeted maintenance and better analysis of information such as geological data and valve pressures.     For Lundin Petroleum, sharing information from its Edvard Grieg field on the Norwegian continental shelf with Aker BP’s adjacent Ivar Aasen field makes sense because getting more real-time production data from a rival in a similar geological area could help it improve its own oil output.     “Aker BP’s view is that, unlike seismic data interpretation for oil exploration, operational data is not a strategic know-how to be protected,” said its chief Karl Johnny Hersvik.     Aker ASA, which together with Aker BP owns more than 75 percent of Cognite, is even considering floating the company on the stock exchange within two years.
