DCS EZOps Announces Second Release of Augmented Intelligence Platofrom for Oil and Gas 1 400

EZ Ops, the provider of oil and gas operations software that identifies top priorities to produce the cleanest and most profitable hydrocarbons in the world, has announced the second release of its augmented intelligence operations platform with new capabilities for dynamic routing and day scheduling.

EZ Ops latest platform release helps operators efficiently plan their daily schedule in under three minutes with certainty they are doing highest value work during their shift, with the least drive time and lowest greenhouse gas emissions. Intelligent schedules and routing draw on algorithms that compute millions of internal and external data including production data, inspection schedules, shift duration, temperature, commodity prices, chemical costs and location data. Beta testing of the newly released feature has begun with customers and will continue over the next several months.

EZ Ops new dynamic routing and scheduling equips upstream oil and gas companies to:

•Equip operations teams with intelligent suggested schedules to optimize production based on their start and end location for the day, shift duration and form of transportation such as truck or helicopter
•Enable field teams to instantly toggle their route between Production-as-Priority Route which looks at highest possible impact on production, or the Fuel-Efficient Route, which optimizes production impact with the least travel time and greenhouse gas emissions.

“This latest release of our new platform equips operations teams with dynamic routing and schedule optimization to complete the highest value activities in the field each day,” explained Brandon Ambrose, CEO and Founder of EZ Ops. “Decisions in the field have become highly complex with operations teams needing to juggle production, compliance and cost management goals. With more data coming at them every day, operators need intelligent scheduling and route guidance to make the best use of their time, consistently.”

This latest release is part of the ongoing development of the new oil and gas operations platform. Beta customers include many of Canada’s most efficient and profitable producers.

“The new dynamic routing capabilities gives operations teams the confidence to do the highest value work at the right locations during each shift, without the cognitive overload of computing millions of variables,” explained Nic Lefebvre, Chief Product Officer and Co-founder. “This release is especially valuable to oil and gas companies right now as lean operations teams are being asked to do more at more assets.”

EZ Ops vision is to provide an intelligence platform for operational excellence that becomes an advantage for North America’s producers, with technology that optimizes and informs the best decisions for asset performance. Development continues to run through to 2023.

In June 2021, EZ Ops announced it received $1 million in investment from the Alberta Innovates Clean Resources program to build out a data-driven prioritization engine that draws on AI and machine learning to guide oilfield workers in taking the best action each day to produce the cleanest and most profitable hydrocarbons in the world.

Put to the Ultimate Test – Part 1: Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL

DCS Put to the Ultimate Test Part 1 Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL 1 400x275

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.

For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
