Det norske oljeselskap has begun deployment of AVEVA’s Progressive Handover Solution to manage life cycle information for its Ivar Aasen field project in the North Sea. The AVEVA solution allows Det norske to benefit from improved information quality within its projects and to reduce the time it takes to access key technical information.
AVEVA’s Progressive Handover Solution is made possible by AVEVA’s Digital Information Hub technology, enabling Det norske to accept data from various sources, regardless of software system. By utilizing dashboard reporting with its EPC contractor, Det norske can monitor information that will be automatically and progressively updated throughout the project.
"The life cycle information portal will contribute to converting the project from being document-centered to focus on tags," said Ellinor Meling, responsible for implementing the AVEVA solution in Det Norske. "As the quality of the life cycle information is improved during the project, approximately all technical information may be located directly from a tag. The solution will be gradually developed with new functionality being added, including inter alia integration with SAP. This is the solution that will be utilized in the Ivar Aasen project for operation and modifications."
The Det norske-operated Ivar Aasen field is situated west of the Johan Sverdrup field in the Norwegian North Sea, and is planned to start production in Q4 2016.
