The OSC provides expert, efficient, remote execution of drilling and logging operations.
Operation Support Center (OSC) provides expert, efficient, remote management of drilling operations
Remote management of wellsite operations cuts costs, reduces risks
Advanced wellsite connectivity and remote control software enable Schlumberger Operation Support Center (OSC) personnel to remotely manage Schlumberger wellsite services. This remote management includes control of most operations for directional drilling (DD), measurement while drilling (MWD), and logging-while drilling (LWD). As a result, there are fewer personnel at the wellsite, which cuts transportation and accommodation costs and reduces health, safety, and environmental (HSE) risks.
More access to expertise
Remote management provides access to increased support and greater expertise than well-by-well support. All OSC personnel are expert in the latest Schlumberger DD, LWD, and MWD technology.
Easy startup
If the remote operation management service is to be run over your network infrastructure, it requires
signing an IT access agreement and putting IT support in place
discussing with your wellsite IT support staff your decision to run the service and its benefits
providing Schlumberger with IT contact details for progress reports.
Schlumberger can also provide a real-time connectivity solution that is independent of your network infrastructure.
Minimum requirements
The minimum requirements for remote operations management are
dedicated phone line
dedicated 256 kb/s bandwidth
dedicated static internet protocol (IP) address
remote access permission from your wellsite IT staff if your network infrastructure will be used
ties to wellsite telecommunications systems beneficial to remote support.
