An Aberdeen-based provider of predictive analysis services, OPEX Group, has secured a multi-million-pound contract for digital services in the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS).
The three year contract with CNOOC Petroleum Europe will see OPEX roll-out its X-PAS predictive analysis service on the Buzzard, Golden Eagle and Scott platforms. It will support operations across all topside oil, gas, water and power systems.
OPEX has delivered digital services for CNOOC for the past seven years through its previous contract with the company. The new contract comes with extension options.
The X-PAS service has been developed by OPEX to support oil and gas operators by improving the predictability of offshore operations.
Combining oil and gas and data science expertise with a range of predictive technologies, OPEX said the service helps operators maximise the value of operational data.
OPEX said it collaborates with oil and gas facilities’ support teams to capitalise on existing data and expertise to improve production up-time, solve complex problem areas and reduce maintenance costs.
Jamie Bennett, chairman and CEO of OPEX Group, said: “We have seen a notable shift as the industry is starting to show real commitment to digitalisation, which will undoubtedly bring breakthroughs in productivity and safety by using data to create meaningful insights.”
