BHP Billiton selects Seven Lakes’ FDG mobile solution for field operations

US-based Seven Lakes’ FDG mobile solution has been selected by BHP Billiton Petroleum for its North American field operations.

The FDG solution has been opted to equip BHP Billiton’s operations with field data capture application and will transform the quality of complex data inputs, including wells, routes and pumpers.

The solution will also enable BHP Billiton’s field operations in North America depend on timely insight between the field and office.

Seven Lakes CEO Shiva Rajagopalan said: “BHP Billiton Petroleum’s selection of FDG demonstrates their commitment to the highest level of discipline and cost control.

“With our solution, their teams will be able to push pumper routes to the field in minutes without ongoing customisations.

“The result is improved communication and information sharing that will drive better, more timely cost-saving decisions.”

The FDG solution will also integrate understanding of industry-specific master and transaction data, configures business rules at the point of input and transforms data quality.

Using the solution, companies can empower teams to change routes based on optimal opex and production goals, as well as increase pumper cost efficiency and production control.

BHP Billiton’s core production operations are located in the US Gulf of Mexico, Australia, and Trinidad and Tobago, and produce crude oil and condensate, gas and natural gas liquids.
