We Can Help

Brainbox Artificial Intelligence Platform learns from inbuilt models and data to understand operational states and failure modes of assets, warns on impending asset failures and associated business impact

HOW BRAINBOX CAN PUMP NEW LIFE INTO OIL FIELDS

Helps You to Identify the Sweet Spot for Production Optimization

unplanned outages caused by damage or failure results in production lags of thousands of barrels of oil per day. While production losses caused by accidental damage are on the decline, unplanned failures are on the rise. An average offshore oil and gas company experiences about 27 days of unplanned downtime a year, which can lead to annual losses from USD 38 million to upwards of USD 88 million.

​

Here lies the sweet spot for production optimization, where Brainbox can help fixing costly downtimes by monitoring and predicting equipment failures and by providing insight on business impact of unprepared loss of production.

PREDICTING - ANALYZING & LIMITING EVENTS

Currently, assets are typically monitored and inspected on a set schedule based on limited performance information compared with historical data. This leads to operations being at risk from unintended events. Wells and equipment need to be ranked and prioritized based on business outcome to make the impact of decisions visible. This includes single metrics like volumes, revenue, costs, and cash flow, and more complex metrics for safety and sustainability.

​

Brainbox is a physics-based AI platform designed to more quickly interpret data collected from sensors and then measured and re-assed with physics models to make logical decisions. Brainbox collects acoustic, vibrations, noise, thermal and stress related information's from machines real-time operations, and correlates with operational and maintenance logs and maintenance records. Brainbox Digital Twin (virtual model) combining with machine learning helps to predict equipment failures and recommend operational improvements.  

BRAINBOX HELPS YOU TO REMOVE BOUNDARIES & BOTTLENECKS

A Number of Several Unknown Challenges Exists in the Production System

Systems are continuously optimized and tuned for production settings. for example, like identifying optimal choke settings, flow rates, pressures, gas lift allocation, routing, and pump speeds. Hundreds of production settings to be adjusted, and thousands of relevant combinations to be considered. This problem is managed using spreadsheets or though other system which is outdated.

​

Brainbox, separates reservoir or other effects from production control responses, like, choke positions, leakages, lift rates, well routing, rotary equipment anomalies etc. for example, Brainbox can potentially increase production from complex facilities by more than 1 percent for each field or from typical operations, Brainbox uses data and machine learning models to optimize the entire system, provide alerts well in advance and helps you logically reason the remain useful life of systems 

AUTONOMOUS HEALTH CHECK & RUL

Estimation of LPG Cylinders

During routine use, LPG cylinders are subjected to irregular treatment, mechanical damage, fire damage or contamination. SPICA provides an autonomous health check to ensure that the cylinders are safe.

​

• Identify cracks and fatigue hotspots

• Detect valve leakages

• Alerts on inner wall thickness degradation

• Welding joint weakness

• Cylinder bottom leakage

• Stress and load analysis

• Automatic rejection of faulty cylinders

• Eliminates human inspections

• 3X Improvement in production speed 

Used by Bharat Petroleum Company (BPCL)  India for Inspection and analysis of cylinders

PROGNOSTIC FOR PUMPS - BOOSTERS & MOTORS

Boosting daily hydrocarbon output from one surface facility is a challenge and production optimization is an another contained challenge. Brainbox can resolve the challenges with ease

• Measures rigid-body motions of systems, its parts positions, velocity and acceleration using Kinematics

CORROSION UNDER INSULATION

Monitoring of CUI line Integrity and Predict Failures 

One of the most serious external corrosion in petroleum and power industry is corrosion under insulation (CUI). The highest incidence of leaks in the refining and chemical industries is due to CUI which causes between 40% to 60% of piping maintenance costs. 

​

Brainbox uses proprietary Brainbox Adaptive Neural Based Fuzzy Inference System (BANFIS). It gives results with the minimum errors when compared to existing techniques. And this is done by just removing few plugs in the insulation for digitization.

​

• Enhanced Wall Loss Detection and Alert

• Leakage

• Increased Operational Speed

• Can be used on Concrete, Reinforcement Systems, Aluminum Cladding 

PREDICT PIPELINE INTEGRITY AND FAILURE

The most corrosive systems or circuits demand the most attention.  As equipment and pipes starts ageing, the lower corrosion circuits can also achieve the potential to fail and become hazardous. Brainbox provides an organized, scientific monitoring of the pipes, manifolds and risers efficiently, and helps in right decision in right time 

​

• Visualizing Pipeline health with deep insight

• Identifying and predicting threshold limits for stress & deformations

• Prediction for Stress Corrosion Cracking (and hydrogen cracking)

• Predict crack propagation using crack-tip stress intensity

• Reports for Global Stress, Stress Amplification and Residual Life Calculations

• Root-Cause Analysis of different-size corrosion patches and pits on the external surface of the pipeline

STRUCTURAL STABILITY MONITORING

Dynamic Stability Analysis of Land & Marine Structures 

Brainbox provides an autonomous decision support for stability of structures, including plastic anelastic structures, static and dynamic response, linear and non-liner behavior, energy approach, dynamic aspects creep stability and fracture or damage induced stability, 

​

• Continuously monitors failures associated with excessive load, heel or trim, catastrophic loss of buoyance

• Reduces threat and increases safety of navigation

• Now docking becomes safe and simple

• Windfarms can optimize operations and increase grid output by 18% to 20% 

• Offshore platform owners get the benefits of reduced planned maintenance, deep sea diving's and increased operational envelope
