Market Definition
Digital oilfield is defined as the automation of upstream, midstream, and downstream oilfield activities. It is a part of the energy industry that has incorporated advanced software and data analysis techniques into its operations to provide enhanced outputs and improve the profitability of the production process. They offer advantages such as optimized production rate of hydrocarbons, improved safety, environmental protection, and ease in finding reserves and exploiting them to the fullest. Digital oilfield is about sensors and screens installed on an oil and gas field. Integrating business processes with digital technologies and automating workflows is a concept. It allows a company to reduce human interference and minimize the risks associated with oil and gas operations. The flow of data and information is rapidly integrated with the analysis interface, allowing timely and best decisions for the operation.
Europe Digital Oilfield Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Advent of digitization in the oil and gas sector across the region
Digitalization is becoming increasingly evident, and digital technology is transforming the oil and gas sector, further driven by real-time data, cloud computing, and digital worlds. Digital oilfields have been designed to overhaul oil and gas systems and enable full optimization throughout the supply chain by combining process management with digital technologies. Furthermore, adopting digital oilfields helps oil and gas businesses transition into greener practices. For instance, artificial intelligence and predictive analytics can help identify oil spills after or even before they occur, which helps companies to minimize various damages. By investing in digital oilfield technologies, oil and gas operators can automate maintenance and manage equipment more efficiently while continuing to drive innovation.
- Rising penetration of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and IoT
Technology plays an important role in the growth of every business, and also it helps organizations to improve the quality and work speed by supporting and enhancing operations. Companies are adopting big data analytics techniques in their businesses to improve operations and ease facility performance. Disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are driving digital transformation across the Europe digital oilfield market, thereby increasing efficiency, safety, and sustainability.
Opportunities
- Increase in exploration operations in uncharted off-shore/ultra-deep-waters
The rise in the consumption of oil and petroleum products across the globe has been highly uncertain over the past two decades. The uncertainty depicts the demand and supply of petroleum and oil products, which drives oil and gas production or extraction of new oil wells. Moreover, oil companies are surveying oilfields to understand the adoption of digital solutions to increase production capacity. Some companies, such as ABB and CGG, are involved in exploring new off-shore and on-shore oilfields. Nowadays, 70% of the world's oil and gas is extracted from on-shore sites, and the rest 30% is extracted from off-shore oilfields. Thus, exploration of the on-shore oilfield is more and has been very common, and most companies have explored the majority of on-shore oilfields.
Restraints/Challenges
- Increase in cyber security threats due to digital initiatives
Oil and gas companies rely on highly connected data and control systems to facilitate exploration, drilling, and system monitoring and to optimize production from on-shore and off-shore resources. As their dependence on IT technology has grown, the vulnerability to cyberattacks has also increased in the past few years.
The rise of the digital oilfield has left oil and gas companies increasingly dependent on data to sustain production. As these technologies become widespread, the cyber risk for the oil and gas industry has continued to rise.
- Interoperability of multiple system components from different solution providers
Digital oilfield systems are gaining importance in the oil and gas industry due to effective monitoring, supervisory capabilities, and remote control. This digital system or technology integrates oil and gas assets such as pipelines, wells, machinery equipment, and many others. Different vendors offer a wide range of digital oilfield solutions, including SCADA software, computers, wireless sensors, robotics, cloud computing, configuration software, and many others.
Companies in the oil and gas industry usually consider the best and most cost-effective digital solutions, irrespective of vendors and suppliers. However, such decisions are made especially according to the requirement, which dominates the standardization of products based on the requirement, which seems very challenging. Numerous digital solutions are adopted in the industry, creating the need for proper and easy integration techniques. Moreover, the customer-oriented solutions will be a constraint to adding any hardware or software offering.
