CNPC’s First Integrated Ocean Technology and Decision Making Center Built in Tianjin

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas). Dagang Oilfield’s (Tianjin, China) Integrated Ocean Technology and Decision Making Center was handed over for inspection and at the same time went into formal use. This symbolizes the digitalization of the Dagang Oilfield.

This technology and decision-making center was jointly researched and developed by Dagang Oilfield Company and Schlumberger (NYSE:SLB) (Houston, Texas).

Reporters on the scene saw, at the click of the engineer’s mouse, underground rock changes, lava flow and drilling parameters as 3D pictures on a huge white screen. As the pictures start to zoom in/out and spin, the colorful “rock underworld” is presented to the audience. An Alice in sub-wonderland adventure begins!

According to experts, this system integrates seismic, drilling, and exploration data and feeds the data through computer and optical processing to generate 3D images. Therefore virtual reality can meet actual work conditions to provide researchers an interactive work platform. The system does not only provide oilfield decision makers with visual aid when making decisions, but has prosperous market prospect because of its user-friendliness and reliability.
