Maersk

August 30, 2019 By epsis

Maersk

Epsis has delivered consulting services, with a focus on Integrated Operations (IO), to Maersk Oil for two major field development projects.

For Maersk Culzean, Epsis assisted in developing the IO program, from theoretical objectives to practical scope, by interviewing stakeholders to create a series of requirements documents. The scope covered IO environment, mobility solutions for field maintenance, ways of working & guided activities, visualization & decision support tools, Information Systems infrastructure, support and governance plans.

Epsis supported Maersk Oil in Copenhagen to develop IO strategies and an operational philosophy for the Tyra Future re-development project. The objective was to define a lean, and flexible organization, ensuring increased reliability, reduced OPEX, improved operational readiness and faster steady-state operation through implementation of new technology.

Additionally, Epsis have delivered support and expertise to develop Maersk Oil’s Real Time Drilling Strategy; aimed at reducing Non-Productive Time (NPT) through the improved application of real time data in the Well Delivery Process.

Operations Centers – Focus on Ways of Working

Operations Centers

Focus on Ways of Working

Many Operations Centers worldwide have a potential for higher utilization, particularly those designed around technology rather than how the resident team(s) works effectively to deliver their operational objectives.

At Epsis, we believe that best-in-class operations centers are designed to connect all the components within the operations environment, whether technology, the physical location, people, processes, or information (from new and legacy sources). This helps to establish and sustain successful teams and lasting business performance improvements. Here are some highlights on how to focus on ways of working:

  1. Perform task analysis to better understand and analyze how people work
  2. Scoping an operation center using timeframes makes it far easier
  3. Keep it flexible for today’s and tomorrows work

Focusing on how people work doesn’t necessarily mean you will need more people in your center. If your goal is to have the same number of people, you need a tool to help you operate and structure the way they work in the center. Experience shows that these teams can benefit from using productivity tools like Enify, helping them build their ways of working across multiple systems, roles, and tasks.

Enify can manage the content displayed on Integrate Operation Centers (IOC) screen real estate more efficiently and allows the creation of pre-defined ‘boards’ for rapid response and support of standardized, repeatable surveillance and incident response scenarios in your IOC. Enify works seamlessly across all screen sizes and for any number of screens. You can define common scenarios and push those out to all IOCs from a central location, so you can take part in operations center activities from anywhere. Bottom line, Enify improves workforce efficiency and team performance.

OPEX/CAPEX Optimization

August 30, 2019 By epsis

OPEX/CAPEX Optimization

Epsis Business Advisory is conducting project analyzes and implementation of solutions which realize sustainable cost reductions, both OPEX & CAPEX, as well as increased HSE and efficiency, improved integrity and flexibility in operations.

We have broad experience with improvement projects, cost optimization and operational excellence – both within operations, maintenance & modifications, as well as drilling & well operations. In cooperation with oil operators and suppliers, we reveal, analyze, design and implement cost-cutting measures in order to realize benefits from identified improvement areas.

We can demonstrate a proven methodology, solid business cases and benefit realization from several engagements with operators on the Norwegian continental shelf. In cost management initiatives for our customers, we have realized sustainable cost reductions up to NOK 190.000.000.

POB Optimization & Operating Model

Remote Operations / Pob Reduction

In Epsis we have assisted clients with remote operations / Personnel On-Board (POB) reduction for more than a decade. These types of initiatives are also currently in focus, as new technologies allow for new ways of working – we can now basically work with anything from anywhere. Still, there are critical activities that cannot be moved from one place to another – either for HSE reasons or due to lack of or too expensive technological solutions to make remote operations or de-manning possible. 

In Epsis we us a methodology that look at tasks as opposed to positions when assessing the feasibility of remote operations. By combining tasks from several positions, new positions can be created, allowing for the overall head count at remote sites to be reduced. To make this possible, competency, cross training, roles and responsibilities as well as position description need to be addressed for successful outcome. Frequently, this results in new or revised operating models that are leaned and have higher efficiency in use of resources. 

Our projects are based on the work task analysis – more known as the CORD/MTO methodology. This methodology was developed by the well-known Norwegian R&D companies IFE and Sintef. It has proven to be very effective both in the energy and in other industries when it comes to change management and operation model development. The analysis has been performed on a number of assets on the Norwegian Continental Shelf over the past 15 years. Epsis has broad experience using this methodology both domestically and internationally. 

The analysis consists of three parts. In the first part, we conduct interviews of key stakeholders to map and analysis of tasks. This includes detailed mapping of work tasks with activities, time spent on activities, roles and activity participants, and will typically result in suggestions for improvement. In the second part, we conduct a functional analysis, this gives basis for re-allocation of tasks between remote site and central office, In the final part, we discuss findings with key stakeholders, adjust based on feedback and make the final recommendation.  

Typical deliverables are:

  1. Define and staff positions onsite / remote – based on re-allocation of tasks
  2. Definition of roles and responsibilities
  3. Competence requirements/ cross-training needs
  4. Digital enablers (technology plan)

Real Time Operations

Epsis Business Advisory is specialized in assisting operators to improve operational effectiveness by the optimal use of Real Time Operations.

Using our “Real Time Operations Assessment Methodology” we analyze the organization, technology and processes holistically. Depending on the project, this may start with a root cause analysis of drilling and/or production upsets, and range from defining the Real Time Data to be collected, over data management and integration to improved collaborative operating models and performance management.

We can demonstrate that our methodology has helped our clients to achieve improvements in the 100 million range.

Integrated Operations (IO) Strategy

Epsis has specialized in assisting operators in designing, implementing and executing IO strategies.

Through our IO methodology framework, we are supporting operators and suppliers to develop strategies that deliver major performance improvements through integration of people, processes and technology. The strategies create value by enhancing collaboration and decision making across functions and locations, driven by automation and real time data. Improved access and visualization in integrated collaborative work environments help organizations make faster and better decisions. Through applications of standardized, proven technology, development of appropriate (workflow) processes, emphasis on LEAN and minimal organizational set-ups and new ways of working we are improving the efficiency of operations.

In collaboration with our customers, we have contributed to continuous performance improvements and best-in-class results for safe and cost effective operations through improved safety performance, increased production, maximized hydrocarbon recovery as well as CAPEC and OPEX reductions, both for Brown Field operations and in Green Field projects.
