Using WITSML to deliver value in BPPresentation to public meeting 16th May 2007 Dr Julian Pickering, Domain Lead Drilling & Completions BP Research & Engineering, Sunbury-on-Thames, UK
BP’s WITSML data management vision • Very strong focus on driving the marketplace to embrace the enhanced capabilities of WITSML – eg. plug & play of intelligent algorithms and tools. • Develop a truly open environment for information exchange. Share data between BP and vendors/service providers, partners and regulatory/statutory reporting bodies. • Single point data entry. • Pre-populate the Daily Report (DIMS/OpenWells) • Update designs with changes between BP and contractors • Maximise data entry automation

WITSML developments in BP • BP has produced a draft Recommended Practice to define a standard Real-Time data architecture based on WITSML communications. This is currently in a consultation phase. • The RP must satisfy all our stakeholders:- • D&C Function • Field Digital Infrastructure • Digital Security • Enterprise Architecture • We are looking to standardise tools and processes on a global basis. Once approved, the Recommended Practice will form the basis for all future drilling contracts. • The architecture has been adopted already in planned operations in Indonesia, Angola and UK North Sea. • We need to consider how we might employ WITSML in our completions operations.
Summary from the WITSML perspective • A clear unambiguous WITSML standard is a must have • to engage our stakeholders • The standard must be stable and not evolve too quickly • WITSML in itself does not deliver value but it is the vehicle • to deliver very significant value • Third party tools and smart processes must be plug and • play • We must all speak with the same voice
