Stena Drilling to deploy new integrated rig reporting, performance analytics services across its rig fleet

Independent Data Services (IDS) has been awarded a six-figure fleet-wide deal with Stena Drilling for fully integrated online reporting and analytics services.

Following successful six-month operational trials on the Stena Spey semisubmersible and Stena Carron drillship, IDS will deploy its TourNet Pro drilling contractor reporting service and drilling performance monitoring service, Anova DPM, across Stena Drilling’s fleet in Q1 2021. The integrated solution will deliver automated near real-time rig and fleet-wide performance benchmarks, KPIs and core analytics in one platform – offering productivity optimization and significant OPEX and time savings versus manual aggregation.

“In today’s operating climate, there has never been more data available, but turning that data into insight and using it to improve operations can be difficult,” said Douwe Franssens, IDS General Manager. “Now more than ever, operators and drilling contractors need to ensure safe, optimal performance. We’re proud to partner with Stena Drilling on this world first – they saw the benefit of how TourNet Pro and Anova DPM could streamline data management to improve drilling campaign performance.”

“The IDS TourNet Pro/DPM integration allows us to change the focus of the morning report,” said Colin Dawson, Digitalization Transformation Manager at Stena Drilling. “We believe we can not only automate 35% of the report from existing sources but also make our data available to our clients to aid in the automation of their reporting.”

The deployment is part of Stena Drilling’s “evolve” digital and business transformation program. IDS will work closely with the “evolve” team to implement value-adding functionality to TourNet Pro as part of the 2021 “We Perform” strategy.
