Driller partners with Asystom

13/07/2021

Asystom and Archer have formed a technology cooperation covering the use of Asystom’s predictive maintenance technology for oil & gas drilling facilities.

The company’s predictive maintenance solution combines machine learning with multi-sensors for prediction. The partners plan further development for drilling facilities worldwide to improve asset management.

Peter Nygaard Andersen, Vice President Engineering at Archer, said: “Asystom’s technology is easily adaptable to our industry and meets the market demands for improved asset management by use of artificial intelligence.

“Machinery learning will enable us to predict and avoid shutdowns, thus reducing non-productive time significantly. The system will aid the asset owner to further reduce cost by enhanced condition control and optimising maintenance planning. Consequently, the system will respond to our goals to reduce our industry’s carbon footprint.”

Archer will market the technology and also provide Asystom with competency and knowledge based on its drilling experience.
