In exploration and production (E&P), speed and precision are critical. Lygos helps geoscientists, engineers, and operations managers visualize complex subsurface data and monitor remote production assets in real time, maximizing reservoir performance and ensuring personnel safety.
Imagine an E&P company's onshore operations center, where a Lygos powered video wall provides a comprehensive overview of multiple well sites.
- Integrated Reservoir Models: The Visualization Module displays complex 3D reservoir models and seismic data, allowing geologists to collaborate and identify new drilling opportunities.
- Real-Time Drilling Dashboards: The Data Module integrates with SCADA systems at drilling rigs to stream live data such as drill speed, temperature, and pressure. These parameters are visualized in vertical charts, giving engineers immediate insight into wellbore stability and drilling efficiency.
- Remote Asset Monitoring: The Maps Module provides a geospatial view of all production wells, pipelines, and facilities. Operators can click on an asset to view its real-time production rates, equipment status, and any active alarms. This is enhanced by the Media Module, which streams live video feeds from remote wellheads for visual confirmation and security.
Thus, visualizations allow teams to identify anomalies, prevent downtime, and optimize production processes collaboratively, ensuring maximum recovery and operational safety.
For midstream operators, the integrity and efficiency of pipelines and storage facilities are paramount. Lygos provides the critical visibility needed to monitor vast networks, prevent incidents, and ensure the uninterrupted flow of resources.
In a pipeline control center, operators use a Lygos video wall to manage thousands of miles of infrastructure:
- GIS Powered Pipeline Monitoring: The Maps Module is the core of the operation, displaying the entire pipeline network overlaid with real-time data from SCADA systems. Operators can instantly see pressure, flow rates, and temperature along any segment of the pipeline.
- Leak Detection and Emergency Response: The system can be configured to trigger instant visual indicators on the video wall if pressure drops indicate a potential leak. The precise geographic location is highlighted on the map, enabling rapid dispatch of field crews and emergency services.
- Integrated Data for Comprehensive Awareness: The Media Module complements the map view by displaying live weather radar, news feeds for geopolitical events that could impact operations, and embedded dashboards from external business intelligence tools tracking market prices.
This centralized, data rich environment, allows for proactive threat assessment and dramatically improves incident response times, safeguarding both the environment and the company's assets.
As the world transitions to a more diverse energy mix, power generation and grid management have become increasingly complex. Lygos provides a crucial solution for managing conventional power plants, integrating renewables, and ensuring grid stability.
A renewable energy operations center uses Lygos to manage a portfolio of wind and solar farms spread across a wide geographic area:
- Fleet Wide Performance Monitoring: The Maps Module shows the location of every wind and solar farm. The Visualization Module displays real-time power generation for each site, alongside key performance indicators like turbine availability and solar irradiance levels.
- Predictive Analytics and Forecasting: The Data Module integrates with weather forecasting services, allowing Lygos to display predicted wind speeds and solar output. This enables operators to accurately forecast generation and sell energy on the market more effectively.
- Unified Operations: Lygos can converge data from various systems onto a single platform, breaking down data silos that often hinder efficiency. The Control Module allows operators to remotely manage assets, while the Presentation and Signage Modules can be used to communicate performance targets and safety information throughout the facility.
By providing a unified view of all renewable assets, Lygos empowers operators to optimize performance, conduct predictive maintenance, and contribute to a more reliable and sustainable energy grid.
