Abstract
A method of managing oilfield activity with a control system is provided having a plurality of virtual sensors and integrating the virtual sensors into a virtual sensor network. The method includes determining interdependencies among the virtual sensors, obtaining operational information from the virtual sensors, and providing virtual sensor output to the control system based on the determined interdependencies and the operational information.
Claims30
A method of managing oilfield activity comprising:
- providing an oilfield hosting architecture that comprises a plurality of application shells with application programmable interfaces between the application shells;
- providing at least one physical sensor, the physical sensor utilizing a physical sensor application programmable interface (API);
- providing at least one intelligent gateway, the intelligent gateway utilizing a gateway sensor API, the intelligent gateway receiving data from the at least one physical sensor, the intelligent gateway comprising at least one virtual sensor, data processing, data storage and a deep learning agent;
- determining interdependencies and operational information between the at least one physical sensor and corresponding at least one virtual sensor;
- obtaining physical sensor data;
- using the physical sensor data as input data to the intelligent gateway;
- generating within the intelligent gateway a virtual sensor output data from gateway in response to the physical sensor data;
- and
- utilizing the virtual sensor output data from gateway to manage oilfield activity.
