Use of IoT to Enable Oil & Gas Sector Achieve Operational Excellence

Having an impact on almost all the sectors within the global economy, crude oil is one of the most highly traded as well as valuable commodities in the world. Currently, it is an important source of both energy and fuel that act as the driving force for every known industry. It is due to it that today the oil and gas industry overall is the powerhouse industry that remains responsible solely for exploration as well as refining of crude. Now, such Exploration & Production companies and oil-field service providers, they use some heavy machinery pieces, including wellheads and the pumpjacks, for drilling fluid from the deep grounds. 

Apart from extraction, as part of well completion services, there comes in the transportation of the crude for which the O&G companies are highly dependent upon the huge pipelines network or the 3rd party vendors that can easily transport the oil through railways, trucks, and ships. These oil refineries constitute a downstream segment of the O&G industry and remain distinctly responsible for the petroleum-based products generation from crude oil.

It is all a big system that is known to facilitate the crude transformation to refined products, and to do this, there come several challenges in terms of oil theft, increased complexity of equipment, and also the rise within carbon footprint, which leads to quite severe social, political, industrial and for sure the environmental implications. This is why the companies associated with the O&G sector remain in search of the tech and tools which can help them counter such complexities. So, with the use of the Internet of Things, the one tech that brings in telematics capabilities and advanced analytics capabilities, they can get rid of the complete complexities that are related to the well completion services.

Operational Excellence with Vertechs-based Asset Monitoring 

Most drilling fluid procedures, they happen within the remote areas which remain under extreme environmental conditions influence. The manual inspection of such oil monitoring machines, including Pumpjacks, Wellheads, etc., isn’t easy at all, increasing the risks to the safety of the workers. Further, such machines, they operate collectively with varied other machinery pieces, and even the last-minute hiccup or malfunction, or breakdown of the single component associated with completion solutions, it can compromise operational efficiency associated with the complete extraction process.

With the help of Vertechs IoT, the companies can get the needed help for the oil exploration and production while they continue enhancing operational excellence. Further, the sensors and meters are used to measure varied parameters, including pressure, temperature, humidity, and much more. Even the thresholds could be again set for the alarm when the particular variable crosses the permissible range.

Monitoring Pumpjack 

As part of completion solutions, the pumpjack remains almost similar to the hand pump that is used for drilling fluids from the wells wherein the oil pressure isn’t high enough to force itself out onto the surface. Using a prime mover or the motor powers, walking beam, and the sucker rod, one can plunge out the oil through the well. However, still there exist varied complexities that remain associated with pumpjack working.

Pumpjacks remain prone to the rod and tubing wear or pump failure because of the pump-off conditions and the fluid pound on the rod string. It can drastically increase the operating expenses and also result in unplanned downtime. 

With the Vertechs equipment monitoring solution, the E&P companies receive the solutions for reducing unexpected component malfunction changes that are associated with the pumpjacks and further ensure the regulatory or the safety compliance.

Final Words

Managing equipment efficiency and assets is an essential task for any industry. With IoT use, one can receive the benefits like the predictive analytics, which allows the industries to monitor conditions and the performance related to machines and assets.

With the help of IoT-based monitoring within O&G, the companies extend the life of the expensive machines, allowing users to monitor varied parameters associated with the machine working from remote locations. It, therefore, helps to reduce the time and cost associated with the random inspection and maintenance task. It also helps the companies enhance the overall equipment effectiveness of the assets and machines. 

So, go ahead and make the pick today. Using IoT solutions within the O&G industry is quite helpful and would help avoid risks and failures.

i got the job

Sometimes I see posts about how "I, Strahd" Tatyana has the personality of a cardboard but I don't think I agree honestly.

We only see her in very few scenes (all from Strahd's POV) and she's always very gentle and soft spoken.

Which makes completely sense since she was a lowborn orphan trying to make a good impression on her future brother in law, who is not only the ruler of the valley but also a feared war criminal. Of course she would try to be as nice as possible in front of him.

I also think that Strahd was extremely genuine in thinking he was in love with Tatyana, it's just that he never really knew her the way Sergei did. He only knew a facet.

just saw venom 3 and im so angry. it was such a disappointing experience, im honestly shocked. the writing and ending were abysmal, not at all the campy and ridiculously fun movies that came before. what happened??

[deoidesign]

Guys you're not gonna believe this. The books are wrong again

At least this time I didn't even get half of them and half of what I did get was damaged...? So I only have another 70 books to deal with... This time they're soft touch......

I've got so many of book 2 it's not even funny

"hi haiz how's your watchmaker placement going"

it's going very well thank you, except for the fact that im currently stuck in a comedy of errors but it's fine it's fine i'll fix it ,

so i've been looking at a couple old chronographs, right. basically they're mechanical watches but with a stopwatch mechanism on top, so they're pretty complicated with a lot of moving parts and adjustments. i'm learning a lot from working on them!!

first i look at chronograph #1 which is the most vintage of the bunch, and it takes me a couple trial and errors to figure out how to put it together with only my own photos for reference -

(that's so many screws to keep track of oh god.) BUT I MANAGE. AND IT SEEMS TO TICK ALONG... until it suddenly doesn't????

i decide to take a break from it and look at chronograph #2, which i have a much easier time with and seem to get going real well!!! until i'm about to put the hands back on and find out. that i managed to break the seconds wheel pinion when i removed the hand it connected to. in the very beginning of the process. soooooo that one is put on hold until we get in a replacement part. fun! fun.

so i go back to chronograph #1 in the meantime. a colleague thinks it's the center wheel that's the problem, so i dissassemble the watch only a little bit to take a look, but it seems fine. when i put it back on the watch starts ticking again! maybe it was just a hiccup of some s- no wait it stopped again. with a sigh, i decide to start over again, put all the parts in the wash again because i've fiddled so much with it the lubrication is probably completely off, and

PROBLEM IDENTIFIED

usually you'd replace the whole spring barrel if you have one. but the problem with vintage watches, especially of more obscure brands, is that you're unlikely to have that at hand. but that's fine, i'm not getting paid to be here nor am i doing work for actual clients so i can absolutely spend a whole day doing This:

GOOD AS NEW!!!!!!

all i need to do now is put everything in the wash and assemble everhthing and definitely not break another part immediately!!!

...

you'll never guess what happened

you probably can't tell but the pinion is supposed to be much longer. it was poking out of the cleaning basket and when i tried to pull it out of the cage i heard a snap. just the worst!!!! why am i breaking everything!!!!!

anyway ive decided to take a shot at making a whole new pinion for the seconds counter wheel

which is scary because it has a VERY LONG THIN PART THAT LOVES TO BREAK. this photo is from my second try because my strategy on the first was not very stable.

i spent my whole day doing just this side of it!!!!!!!

AND WHEN I STARTED WORKING ON THE OTHER SIDE. GUESS WHAT. GUESS FUCKING WHAT. IT BROKE! i should have seen it coming

YOU LIVE AND YOU LEARN thank god tomorrow is a bank holiday i need to lie down

one day i shall conquer the chronographs.

[dairine-bonnet]

Bastila Shan: I saw your service records when you were transferred aboard the Endar Spire, and I've also looked through them again lately. But I know very little about you anyway. I'd like to ask you some questions, given our relationship.

Amnesiac Revan: Is it a brand new tradition these days to look through my service records? Trask, Carth, now you... Am I a kind of a test subject, or did you find there an incredibly fascinating story I'm not aware of?

[theskymahtin]

I can't stop thinking about the Watcher thing it's just so fascinatingly bizarre . like so many components of that decision and how they handled it were so bad and so completely out of left field for how they've operated in the past I am baffled . Someone put these guys under a microscope Stat

Frac Plugs: Enhancing Well-Drilling and Completion Solutions

Well drilling and completion techniques have evolved over the years, making oil and gas extraction more efficient and safe. One of the vital tools in this process is the frac plug. This small device plays a big role in enhancing the overall drilling process, helping to seal off specific sections of a well during hydraulic fracturing. Companies like Vertechs specialize in providing advanced drilling solutions, including frac plugs, to improve the overall efficiency of well operations.

In this blog, we'll break down what frac plugs are, how they work, and why they are essential for modern drilling techniques such as managed pressure drilling.

What Are Frac Plugs?

A frac plug is a temporary, mechanical barrier placed in a wellbore during hydraulic fracturing. It isolates the sections of the well, allowing the operator to target specific zones for fracking. Essentially, frac plugs help maintain control over the fracturing process, ensuring that the right amount of pressure is applied to the right areas.

How Frac Plugs Work

Frac plugs are set inside the well using special tools. Once in place, they create a seal, blocking fluids from moving up or down the well. This isolation is crucial for the fracturing process, as it enables the operator to apply high pressure in specific zones, cracking the rock formation and allowing oil or gas to flow freely.

After the fracturing process is complete, these plugs are either drilled out or dissolve depending on the type of plug used.

Types of Frac Plugs

Composite Frac Plugs: These are the most commonly used type of frac plug. They are lightweight, easy to drill out, and suitable for a wide range of well conditions. Their composite material makes them reliable and cost-effective.

Dissolvable Frac Plugs: As the name suggests, dissolvable frac plugs are made from materials that break down naturally when exposed to specific well conditions like temperature or fluid chemistry. These plugs eliminate the need for drilling out after fracturing, saving time and resources.

Cast Iron Frac Plugs: While less common today, cast iron plugs are still used in certain situations where their robust nature is beneficial. However, these plugs are heavier and more difficult to remove than composite or dissolvable plugs.

The Role of Frac Plugs in Managed Pressure Drilling

Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) is a modern drilling technique that allows operators to precisely control the pressure in the wellbore. This helps prevent many of the common challenges faced during traditional drilling, such as kicks (unexpected influxes of formation fluids) or blowouts.

In the context of MPD, frac plugs play a critical role in maintaining wellbore stability and pressure control. When combined with MPD techniques, frac plugs help create a safer and more efficient drilling environment. Here’s how:

Enhanced Pressure Management: Frac plugs isolate specific sections of the well, allowing operators to manage the pressure more effectively in each zone. This is crucial when using MPD, as maintaining the right pressure levels can prevent costly well-control issues.

Improved Safety: One of the primary goals of MPD is to improve safety. By using frac plugs, operators can control where and how pressure is applied, minimizing the risks of blowouts or other dangerous situations.

Optimized Wellbore Integrity: The use of frac plugs ensures that the wellbore remains stable throughout the drilling and completion process. This is essential for long-term production and minimizes the need for costly interventions down the line.

Benefits of Using Frac Plugs in Modern Well Drilling

Frac plugs offer several key benefits, making them an essential part of the well-completion process:

Precise Isolation: Frac plugs allow operators to isolate individual zones in the well, ensuring that fracturing occurs only where it's needed. This leads to more efficient resource extraction.

Cost Savings: The use of dissolvable frac plugs, in particular, can save time and money by eliminating the need for drilling out plugs after the fracking process.

Increased Efficiency: By improving pressure control and reducing the likelihood of wellbore instability, frac plugs help streamline the entire drilling and completion process.

Conclusion

Frac plugs play a vital role in modern well drilling, particularly in the context of managed pressure drilling. They offer precise isolation, enhanced pressure management, and improved safety, all of which are critical for efficient and cost-effective well operations. As companies like Vertechs continue to innovate and develop advanced frac plug solutions, the future of well drilling looks even more promising.

By combining the latest in frac plug technology with advanced drilling techniques like MPD, the oil and gas industry can look forward to safer, more efficient, and more profitable operations.

I feel like this would be an 'ice cream for breakfast' kind of day but my husband brought me curry and chips on his way home from a night out and that was my breakfast at 4am this morning.

So ice cream for lunch I guess

Il y a les nuits où il se réveille d'un cauchemar, le regard frénétique, les poings serrant les draps, soufflant à perdre haleine. Ces nuits-là elle l'étreint ; elle fait de petites bises sur son crâne ; avec son pouce elle caresse sa nuque couverte de sueur, tendue et tremblante. Quand il revient à lui-même, elle le chevauche, appuyant fort sur son corps avec tout son poids ; elle prend son visage entre ses deux mains ; elle pousse son front contre le sien, en répétant : "T'es à moi, à moi, à moi, à moi," jusqu'à ce qu'elle voie la chaleur dans son regard, jusqu'à ce qu'elle sente la réponse de son corps sous elle.

Elle le nique vigoureusement, ces nuits-là. Elle mord son épaule sans qu'il doive lui en demander. Elle le fait crier son nom à elle, pour l'empêcher de crier ceux de ses proches perdus. En lui coupant le souffler par amour, elle écrase le souvenir de ce qui l’a fait par terreur. Leur sueur s'entremêle, le stabilisant, le liant au présent, à ce lieu, à elle. Quand il se rendort, épuisé, des fourmis dans les membres, son cœur bat fort à cause de leur amour, leur amour et rien d'autre.

Dans la paix qui suit, elle passe les doigts le long des balafres sur le dos de son bien-aimé, écoute son haleine qui s'équilibre, se concentre sur sa propre sueur pendant qu'elle s'évapore dans l'air frais de la nuit.
