FlowSense™ is an intelligent AI-powered platform designed for upstream oil & gas operators to automate flow meter uncertainty audits, production adjustment calculations, and compliance assessments. The platform integrates advanced analytics with AI-driven anomaly detection, ensuring regulatory adherence while optimizing hydrocarbon measurement accuracy. FlowSense™ automates uncertainty analysis, performs risk-based scoring, and predicts potential failures – significantly reducing errors in production reporting.
Overview
Business Challenge
Oil & gas operators face significant challenges in ensuring accurate measurement of produced hydrocarbons due to:
- High uncertainty in flow meters leading to inaccurate allocation and reporting.
- Compliance gaps with API, ISO, and other auditing standards.
- Manual auditing processes that delay reporting and increase operational risks.
- Lack of predictive insights to detect faulty meters before failure.
- Revenue losses due to misreported production volumes.
Business Objective
FlowSense™ solves these challenges by automating audits, enhancing production reporting accuracy, and enabling AI-driven predictive analytics.
Solution
FlowSense™ provides an AI-powered approach to streamline flow meter uncertainty analysis:
