Statoil uses sensors and automation for environmental monitoring

Statoil uses sensors and automation for environmental monitoring of exploration and production in especially security zones (on the shelf).

Tasks:

• Monitoring in real time.
• The analysis of large volume of dynamic data in real time.
• Early detection and faster reaction to operational incidents on the surrounding shelf.
• Faster leak detection and technical conditions.

Business benefits:

• Monitoring of operating activities in especially security zones.
• The increased probability of obtaining permissions from the Regulator. Faster reaction to the incidents adverse for the environment, leak of hydrocarbons or chemical imbalance.
• The raised possibility of achievement of the goal of "zero level of harmful emissions".
