Emerson integrates OVS software to help oil fields increase efficiency

Emerson Process Management has expanded its integrated operations (iOps) solutions to include workflow software modules from OVS Group.

Integration of Emerson’s technologies and OVS software means users across an oilfield can automate the analysis of their data and reports to capture opportunities more efficiently.

The joint solution works with Emerson’s DeltaV distributed control system via OPC connections and database integration to provide information for OVS’s group of oilfield software solutions.

OVS’s industry-proven software solutions assist oil and gas operators with oilfield applications such as gas lift optimisation, cyclical steam generation, and decline curve analysis.

Combining sensing, control, and workflow automation, oil and gas producers can automatically capture actionable events and drive insights that produce improved execution.

Less time will be spent looking for data, performing data loading, and generating the manual reports that currently consume the bulk of the industry’s time.

Emerson’s iOps initiative addresses key areas including workflow automation to reduce errors in tasks, and information visualisation to improve decision making.

Combined with analytics from OVS, the integrated solution enables users to accurately and easily assess key information and identify opportunities for operations and business improvements.
