Rework APAC drilling and IMR sourcing after new fleet and tech moves

” In addition, RTOC can identify potential issues before they escalate by analyzing real-time rig data, helping reduce incident response times by 4-12 hours and avoid one to two days of rig downtime

By combining operational data, advanced analytics and AI-driven insights, tasks that previously required a full day of analysis can now be completed within minutes. The AI platform analyzes real-time operational data to help two operators, ADNOC Onshore and ADNOC Offshore, make faster decisions, improve performance and reduce operational risks across their assets

” According to the UAE giant, the RTOC replaces multiple tools and reduces engineering effort by 30-40%, allowing engineers to support two to three times more rigs while maintaining effective oversight by turning large volumes of drilling data into clear and actionable information through automated dashboards and AI-powered performance insights, enabling reporting cycles that previously took several days to be completed within hours
