Sensia’s Avalon platform offers a comprehensive interface that simplifies the capture, analysis and digitisation of well-related activities, facility-related activities and customer-end operations
Essar Oil and Gas Exploration and Production (EOGEPL), India’s pioneering unconventional hydrocarbon (Coal Bed Methane) player announced its collaboration with M/s Sensia, a leading provider of digitalisation solutions, to enhance operations through the deployment of Sensia’s Avalon digital platform interface.
According to the media release, “This strategic partnership aims to unify measurement systems, optimise decision-making and enable remote control of critical parameters across EOGEPL’s wells, facilities and customer interface.”
Sensia’s Avalon platform offers a comprehensive interface that simplifies the capture, analysis and digitisation of well-related activities, facility-related activities and customer-end operations.
The platform enables real-time data acquisition of essential parameters, such as mechanical, electrical, gas and water flow, pressure and power backup device data, among others.
Commenting on the development, Pankaj Kalra, CEO of EOGEPL said, “We are delighted with our collaboration with Sensia and the deployment of their Avalon digital platform interface represents a significant milestone in our digitalisation journey, as it enables us to unify our measurement systems, optimise decision-making and remotely control critical parameters across our operations.”
By leveraging advanced technologies, we are confident that we will achieve increased production, reduced operating costs, and enhanced efficiency, reaffirming our commitment to sustainable and efficient energy production, Kalra added.
EOGEPL has already invested Rs 5,000 crore in exploration in the Raniganj block by drilling 350 wells. The company is further looking at investing another Rs 2,000 crore for drilling 200 more wells in the next 18 to 24 months.
Under the contractual partnership with Sensia, EOGEPL has made significant progress in the real-time monitoring of the existing wells (BU-1 scope) and is currently monitoring an additional 200 wells (BU-2 scope). The automation solution integrated into the work program will contribute to the overall digitalization efforts, enabling remote operations and improving efficiency for production expansion plans in BU-2.
