upstream oil & gas
Here are some key production functions perfromed in upstream oil & gas we can help with:
1. Exploration: The exploration stage involves the search for hydrocarbons, which are the primary components of petroleum and natural gas. Land surveys are performed to help identify the areas that are the most promising.
2. Drilling: Once it has been determined that there appear to be reserves beneath the ground, the test drilling process can begin.
3. Extraction: Upstream oil and gas production and operations identify deposits, drill wells, and recover raw materials from underground.
4. Managing Core E&P Assets: One function is to manage core assets, which is usually a complex existing portfolio, with many mature prospects.
5. Managing Growth Assets: Another function is to manage growth assets which can include unconventional and international (non-host country) prospects.
6. Scouting for Exploration Opportunities: Explorationists operate on both core and growth assets, and include activities such as scouting for and evaluating mineral interest exploration opportunities.
7. Performing Geological and Geophysical Exploration (G&G) and Prospect Evaluation: This involves performing geological and geophysical exploration (G&G) and prospect evaluation.
8. Maintaining an Inventory of High-Quality Exploration Drilling Prospects: This involves maintaining an inventory of high-quality exploration drilling prospects.
9. Supervising the Site Selection and Drilling of Exploratory Wells: This involves supervising the site selection and drilling of exploratory wells, often called ‘wildcats’.
These functions are crucial for the efficient and safe operation of upstream oil operations.
oil refinery
Here are some key production functions performed at a refinery we can help with:
1. Distillation: The first step in the refining process is distillation, where crude oil is heated at extreme temperatures to separate the different hydrocarbons.
2. Conversion: Refining breaks crude oil down into its various components, which are then selectively reconfigured into new products.
3. Reforming: This process involves rearranging the atoms in a molecule to create a different molecule.
4. Blending and Treating: These processes safely and efficiently help deliver energy in all its usable forms.
5. Operating Processing Equipment: Operators operate processing equipment and log equipment checks to follow standard operating procedures and optimize plant efficiencies.
6. Regulating Valves, Compressors, Pumps, and Auxiliary Equipment: Operators regulate these to direct product flow.
7. Supporting Smooth Plant Running: Operators coordinate with plant management to ensure smooth running of the plant.
These functions are crucial for the efficient and safe operation of a refinery.
power plant
Here are some key production functions performed at a power plant we can help with:
1. Energy Conversion: Power plants convert the energy stored in the fuel (mainly coal, oil, natural gas, enriched uranium) or renewable energies (water, wind, solar) into electric energy.
2. Electricity Generation: Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind.
3. Heat to Electricity Conversion: A power plant’s job is to release this chemical energy as heat, use the heat to drive a spinning machine called a turbine, and then use the turbine to power a generator (electricity making machine).
4. Operating Different Types of Power Plants: These include hydroelectric power plants (impoundment power plants, diversion power plants, pumped storage power plants), thermal power plants (nuclear power plants, coal power plants), and solar power plants.
These functions are crucial for the efficient and safe operation of a power plant.
chemicals plant
Here are some key production functions performed at a chemical plant we can help with:
1. Chemical or Biological Transformation and Separation of Materials: The general objective of a chemical plant is to create new material wealth via the chemical or biological transformation and separation of materials.
2. Use of Specialized Equipment, Units, and Technology: Chemical plants use specialized equipment, units, and technology in the manufacturing proces.
3. Ensuring Compliance with Health, Safety, and Environmental Regulations: This involves ensuring that all operations are compliant with health, safety, and environmental regulations.
4. Conducting Research into Improved Manufacturing Processes: This involves conducting research to improve manufacturing processes.
5. Designing and Planning Equipment Layout: This involves designing and planning the layout of equipment for optimal efficiency.
6. Incorporating Safety Procedures: This involves incorporating safety procedures for working with dangerous chemicals.
7. Monitoring and Optimizing the Performance of Production Processes: This involves monitoring production processes and making necessary adjustments for optimal performance.
These functions are crucial for the efficient and safe operation of a chemical plant.
