Wellsite automation can help make oil and gas production smarter, faster, more efficient and safer. The ability to utilize real-time data to make automatic and instantaneous adjustments can produce reductions in the days spent on frac operations and increased wellsite safety.

The software is a fully adaptive, self-learning, and continuously improving system that addresses the unique challenges and requirements of drilling. The AI agent finds the most efficient and safe way to TD, predicts incidents, hazards, and optimizes parameters.

As fracturing intensity continues, operators are looking for additional ways to increase efficiencies. One such solution is automation in the fracturing process. Accordingly, a platform of digital software controls and hardware enables operators to pursue automation, while executing completions safely and more efficiently.

UEM is an innovative approach that, for the first time, simultaneously integrates static and dynamic data in real time to represent subsurface conditions across multiple scales. This method improves the accuracy of reservoir models by consistently incorporating geologic uncertainties, making UEM vital to optimize reservoir recovery under uncertainty.

The agreement will see Pasqal install, maintain, and operate a 200-qubit quantum computer, which is scheduled for deployment in the second half of 2025.

Key highlights of the contract include a test deployment of PetroVisor’s Electric Submersible Pump (ESP) app for one producing asset, showcasing Datagration's machine learning-enabled ESP data analytics solution.

The digital transformation continues to impact various drilling and production functions in many positive ways, and thus its usage and spending for it will expand further, says a veteran upstream executive.

Increasing safety and reducing injuries during drilling is gaining momentum. Automation achieves these goals in the red zone by automating risk-prone, manual tasks. Automated installation of control line clamps has increased rig floor safety. Semi- and fully automated systems will become available commercially later this year.

The agreement aims to support the commercialization of a broad range of technological advancements and solutions, green retrofit products and services such as carbon capture, electrification and energy efficiency measures.
