DrillOps advisory and DrillOps automation are rig based solutions that enable the optimum and consistent execution of drilling activities through automation, either as full closed loop control with DrillOps automation, or as open loop advisory mode with DrillOps advisory.

AI enabled optimum drilling workflows are delivered to the driller for automated or assisted execution, within the context of the digital drilling program, procedures and checklists. Our DrillOps intelligent well delivery and insights solutions aim to radically improve drilling execution through AI-driven workflows, that continuously learn and strive to achieve full autonomy and deliver consistently improving levels of performance.

DrillOps Advisory
DrillOps Advisory - Enable AI to deliver optimized parameters

DrillOps advisory is available for both drilling contractors and operators, and can be used on any rig. It elevates the driller’s competency throughout the drilling and tripping process. Deployment is quick and easy with the only hardware being the human machine interface (HMI) screen and edge device. This enables deployment time to be less than two months from project approval. DrillOps advisory is available for both drilling and tripping workflows.

DrillOps advisory has embedded domain models to deliver recommendations to the driller as smart AI, driven in real-time and in context of the environment and operations, all supported with high quality user experience visualization.

DrillOps Automation
DrillOps Automation - Let AI driven workflows execute autonomous operations

DrillOps automation is a rig-based application that takes control of rig equipment to enable intelligent execution of drilling workflows through AI, ensuring procedural implementation and delivering consistent and optimum performance delivery. It is an adaptive automation solution, whereby a drilling workflow goal is set, and the system will adapt, within pre-defined limits, to deliver the goal in a consistent manner. The ability of DrillOps solutions to be adapt in response to constantly changing drilling conditions is what sets it apart in the industry and enables DrillOps solutions to reach the highest levels of autonomy.

DrillOps advisory: Enable AI to deliver optimized parameters for drilling and tripping workflows for both on any rig.

ADrillOps automation: Let AI driven workflows execute autonomous operations for both onshore and offshore drilling on any AC VFD rig.
