IHS Upstream Technology and Innovation

Providing valuable insights into the technology trends and developments taking place across the exploration and production value chain, including how best to source, manage, and advance them.

Framework for technological innovation Exploration and production (E&P) firms and their suppliers have long recognized the critical role of technology in enabling access to new resources, improving efficiency, and operating in a safe and environmentally-sound manner. What is changing, however, is how companies are pursuing such advances, which factors are influencing the pace and direction of technology development, and how companies are seeking to position themselves through technology leadership. The IHS CERA Upstream Technology and Innovation Service helps companies navigate this increasingly complex landscape. By taking an integrated and comprehensive approach to technology research, it arms senior technology and business executives with the robust insight they need to make the right technology investment and deployment decisions. By building on a strong technical base and leveraging proprietary IHS data and industry analysis, the Service generates quantitatively-derived insights and places them in a broader business context.

Service benefits • Independent analysis of technology advances and trends along with their potential tactical and strategic implications • Membership in a community of peers that fosters open dialogue, frank discussions, and new relationships • A set of proprietary frameworks and data resources that allow member companies to evaluate the impact of technologies on their existing portfolios as well as on potential investments • A unique, case study-based approach that enables members to learn from industry successes (and challenges) • Research and analysis that allows companies to assess where they stand in relation to industry peers

Service deliverables Content and community • Attendance at each of the annual Digital Oil Field of the Future workshops • Two topical Digital Oil Field of the Future White Papers (one delivered after each workshop), with subjects selected based on member company interest • Regular Strategic Reports across the themes of Industry Technology and Innovation Trends, Technology Screenings, and Regulatory-driven Technology Development • An Upstream Technology and Innovation Summit associated with the IHS CERAWeek Executive Conference

Access to experts • Two annual interview meetings (spring and autumn) with member companies (either on site or via videoconference/teleconference) • Telephone and email access to IHS CERA experts to address specific questions related to Upstream Technology and Innovation Service research and to review topics of interest

Other events • Multimedia conference calls and webinars • Additional events for members include exclusive client gatherings fostering interaction among senior- level decision makers and IHS CERA experts as well as the IHS Forum in locations worldwide

A rich set of themes anchor the research agenda of the Upstream Technology and Innovation Advisory Service Digital Oil Field of the Future (DOFF)

Industry technology and innovation trends

The DOFF is a new approach to field development and operations in which energy companies leverage real-time asset data, enhanced analytical tools, and remote operating practices to transform how they work and to raise performance.

Changes are underway in how energy companies pursue technology development, with the resulting disruptions creating new opportunities and challenges.

Technology screenings

Regulatory-driven technology development

New technologies continue to enter the upstream sector with the promise of opening up new resources, increasing recovery, and lowering costs. Their potential impacts are subject to many factors.

As oil and gas companies push further into frontier and unconventional resources, they increasingly encounter a range of stakeholder concerns. These same issues are also spurring a wave of innovation.

Digital Oil Field of the Future (DOFF)

Technology screenings

As E&P firms pursue “The Prize” of the digital oil field – increased reservoir recovery, lower costs, higher production rates, improved safety and environmental performance – they continue to encounter new opportunities and challenges. This Service studies the organizational and technical aspects of these advanced, technology-enabled field development and operating practices taking hold in upstream oil and gas. It provides a collaborative setting in which to investigate these issues by

While it’s easy to get caught up in the hype of emerging innovations, it’s more difficult to objectively assess their potential impacts by region and by resource class. IHS CERA presents a framework that draws upon proprietary IHS data and analysis to perform such assessments by • Describing deployment criteria and recent technical developments, including field trial results

• Framing the digital oil field within a strategic (versus a tactical) context to broaden its appeal and thereby accelerate adoption

• Leveraging proprietary IHS databases to first assess resource volume by asset class (e.g., deepwater oil) and by region, and then “score” each segment’s receptiveness to the technology’s effects

• Identifying key opportunity areas (e.g., asset classes, functional activities), outlining possible approaches, and quantifying potential benefits

• Quantifying technology impacts (e.g., recovery factor increase) by resource segment to provide guidance on investment and deployment prioritization

• Highlighting common technical and organizational challenges, and plotting paths to overcome them

• Identifying and tracking signposts on the path to large-scale, commercial adoption

• Investigating world-class deployments to outline their approaches, identify their key success factors, and document their value

Industry technology and innovation trends The upstream sector is investing more in technology development, working more collaboratively with partners both inside and outside the industry, and extending its geographic reach in pursuit of new sources of innovation. Staying abreast of these developments is key for individual companies in order to assess how they should position themselves. • Regular updates on technology development trends such as spending levels, areas of focus, sources of innovations (e.g., formal R&D, corporate venture groups), and organizational strategy, along with the business and technical factors influencing them • Deep dives into key technology development trends (e.g., The Globalization of Innovation), along with guidance on how best to position one’s organization to benefit from them • Best practices for accelerating technology adoption by shortening the cycle from field piloting to broad deployment, reinforced by actual industry case studies

Regulatory-driven technology development Energy companies seek to anticipate and address potential stake holder issues before they arise. Likewise, technology firms look to capitalize on resulting market opportunities. Focused reviews in such areas as process safety, water, emissions, and land usage provide insight along both themes by • Analyzing the status and potential implications of emerging stakeholder concerns, proposed and impending regulations, and enacted legislation • Assessing the areas – prevention, monitoring and detection, remediation, transparency – in which technology can play a central role • Using scenario-based assessments to identify how companies can optimally leverage technology to address stakeholder concerns
