Use case

Streamline field modifications with FieldTwin Collaborate

Transform how you manage changes to existing fields by connecting operators and contractors on one platform

Aging fields, new challenges

Operators face significant challenges when adapting existing fields to exploit new opportunities. With aging assets often requiring complex modifications, teams need to efficiently evaluate multiple scenarios, share accurate field data with contractors, and make decisions that optimize both current and new infrastructure. Traditional approaches lead to lengthy analysis periods, incomplete data sharing, and costly coordination errors.

Focused on field optimization

FieldTwin Collaborate provides a digital workspace that enables operators and contractors to visualize existing field layouts and collaboratively design in real-time. With secure data sharing, intuitive visualization, and scenario planning capabilities, FieldTwin Collaborate ensures all stakeholders work with accurate information to develop optimal solutions for field expansions and adaptations.

How it works

Following the change management journey

Picture an operator managing a 20-year-old producing field who has discovered a new reservoir miles away.

FieldTwin Collaborate brings together operators and contractors to efficiently modify existing field infrastructure. Here's how FieldTwin Collaborate transforms their approach to repurposing the field:

  • Creating the digital foundation

    The operator establishes a digital twin of their existing field that has been producing for over 20 years. They've discovered a new reservoir several miles away and need to evaluate a tie-in option requiring pumps rather than building new facilities. Their complete field layout, seabed characteristics, and mapped obstructions accumulated over two decades are all accessible in one visual environment.

  • Inviting partners to the platform

    With a few clicks, the operator invites engineering contractors to collaborate on determining the optimal pump location and designing modifications to connect the new reservoir. Each partner receives secure access to only the relevant field data they need, maintaining control while enabling effective collaboration.

  • Real-time design and feedback

    Contractors immediately begin analyzing the existing infrastructure and exploring pump placement options directly in FieldTwin. The platform's visualization capabilities allow them to understand complex spatial relationships between existing assets and proposed changes. They can create and evaluate multiple tie-in scenarios, with all stakeholders viewing the same up-to-date information.

  • Cross-disciplinary problem solving

    Engineers from both the operator and contractors collaborate in real-time to solve complex technical challenges. They can visually assess how the distance between facilities and fluid characteristics impact pumping requirements. Cost analysis and technical evaluations occur simultaneously within the same platform, leading to faster, more informed decisions.

  • Continuous project evolution

    As the project advances from concept to execution, FieldTwin Collaborate continues to serve as the central hub for all modification activities. New contractors can be added at any phase with customized access levels, ensuring they have precisely the information needed for their specific tasks. The platform maintains a complete record of all decisions and changes, providing valuable continuity throughout the modification project.
