Challenges

_

Addressing Asset Complexity and Data Discrepancies
The WDDM development spans 19 gas fields, with 12 fields currently operational. Managing such a diversified asset network inherently brings varied risks and compliance needs. The client’s primary hurdle was the inconsistency in historical data, making integrity information processing time-consuming, and costly. This challenge impeded effective decision-making for regular oversight. Additionally, a holistic understanding of field conditions was lacking, complicating maintenance planning and execution.

Transforms Asset Integrity Management with MCS Digital Virtuoso
To address the client’s challenges, MCS introduced the MCS Digital Virtuoso Asset Integrity Data Management System. The system facilitated the consolidation of data from multiple sources, including XL, PDFs, and drawings of an enormous number of assets such as:

  • 3 platforms
  • 68 wells
  • 193 jumpers
  • 135 PLETS
  • 17 manifolds
  • 955km of pipelines
  • 587km of umbilical
  • 152 UTAs
  • 866 HFL/EFL


In-depth infrastructure analysis, combined with sessions with the client’s asset integrity team, ensured MCS thoroughly grasped the distinct requirements. and procedures.

Delivering Enhanced Production Management
MCS Group’s Digital Virtuoso Asset Integrity Data Management System addressed the client’s challenges and exceeded their expectations.

  1. Custom Solutions
    MCS devised a specialized database to house all asset data, enabling seamless MCS Digital Virtuoso AIDMS integration. This bespoke solution empowered the client to manage their assets efficiently, enabling accurate geographical visualization of facilities, expedited analysis, planning, and informed decision-making.

  2. Enhanced Accessibility
    The web-based MCS Digital Virtuoso system allows our client to access asset data and condition information anytime, anywhere. This real-time access promotes efficiency through instantaneous collaboration and data-informed decisions.
  3. Strategic Risk Management
    By adopting a robust Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) philosophy, the client optimized both capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operational expenditure (OPEX). The Digital Virtuoso tool aids in proactive risk management, supporting exact resource distribution and cost-effectiveness.
  4. Subsea Inspection Advancement
    MCS Digital Virtuoso helped our client prepare, develop, and implement a full subsea inspection cycle. By implementing a subsea inspection and maintenance philosophy, the operator maximized the effectiveness of their subsea operations, minimized downtime, and sustained optimal performance.
  5. Joining the Digital Age: Integration and Transformation
    The integration between the AIDM and client maintenance applications is a leap toward digital adaptation. By adopting MCS Digital Virtuoso, the client modernizes its operations, harnessing the advantages of leading-edge technology.
