Well and asset integrity are critical components in the lifecycle management of oil and gas operations, ensuring the safe, efficient, and sustainable extraction of resources. This session discusses the principles and practices that underpin well and asset integrity, emphasizing the importance of risk management, regulatory compliance, and technological advancements. Well integrity focuses on the containment of fluids within a wellbore system, requiring robust design, construction, and monitoring protocols to prevent leaks and environmental contamination. Asset integrity, on the other hand, involves the holistic management of physical assets, ensuring they perform their intended function throughout their lifecycle while minimizing hazards to personnel and the environment.

We explore the integration of advanced monitoring technologies, such as real-time data analytics and predictive modeling, which enhance the detection of anomalies and facilitate timely interventions. Additionally, we address the impact of aging infrastructures, maintenance strategies, and the role of an integrity management system in optimizing asset performance. Case studies illustrate successful implementations of integrity management practices that have led to increased operational efficiency, reduced downtime, and enhanced safety outcomes. Ultimately, this session advocates for a proactive approach to well and asset integrity, aligning organizational goals with industry best practices to foster a culture of safety and sustainability in the petroleum sector.

Optimising oil and gas production requires a comprehensive approach that integrates production system modelling, simulation, and data-driven Well, Reservoir & Facility Management (WRFM) strategies. In an era of increasing operational complexity, leveraging digital transformation and predictive analytics is key to enhancing efficiency, maximising recovery, and reducing downtime. This session will explore cutting-edge methodologies for modelling production systems, simulating field performance, and applying real-time data analytics to WRFM workflows. Participants will gain insights into how digital technologies, AI, and advanced simulations are reshaping production optimisation strategies. Designed for both surface and subsurface professionals and asset managers, this workshop will provide practical insights into how to utilise simulation models and digital data efficiently for decision-making and to unlock new opportunities in oil and gas production.

Key discussion points include:

• End-to-end systems that include reservoir understanding, wells, and surface facility set-up

• Production system modelling and simulation – optimising inflow and outflow dynamics for improved performance

• Integrating physics-based and automated models for accurate forecasting and decision-making

• Transforming WRFM with real-time data analytics and visual representation – predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and production optimisation
