As a result of the hybrid AI workflows, Neptune Energy saw an 80% reduction in time spent on data mining and manipulation, and a 67% reduction in time spent on data analysis and validation.

AUSTIN, Texas / OSLO, Norway — Cognite has released a native simulator integration and hybrid AI workflow capabilities for its Industrial DataOps platform, Cognite Data Fusion.

The company said these hybrid AI workflows combine the best of data-driven machine learning and physics-based modeling to deploy advanced digital solutions at scale, including solutions for sensitive production use cases that can reduce costs and increase proactive decision-making that can optimize production. 

With Cognite Data Fusion, industrial organizations can automate routine simulator studies or monitor problem cases by automatically running a simulator with live data, collecting the results, triggering actions and visualizing output. Cognite Data Fusion is vendor-agnostic and can integrate with industry simulations such as Unisim, Olga, Turbulent Flux, Multiflash and Hysys.

Additionally, Cognite recently announced a strategic partnership with SLB to simplify and supercharge access to hybrid AI solutions for the energy industry.

Case study

Neptune Energy, the operator of Cygnus in the North Sea, leveraged Cognite Data Fusion to develop a hybrid AI well modeling and monitoring application. Through a native integration with PROSPER, a well and pipeline modeling simulator, Cognite Data Fusion delivers automated well modeling and near-real-time well monitoring, eliminating manual processes and achieving higher volumes of broader surveillance and higher quality assessments.

As a result of the hybrid AI workflows in Cognite Data Fusion, Neptune saw an

  • 80% reduction in time spent on data mining and manipulation;
  • 67% reduction in time spent on data analysis and validation; and
  • Increased proactive decision-making due to near-real-time surveillance in a common application that allows for multi-disciplinary collaboration.

"Cognite Data Fusion provides our engineers with a wealth of efficiencies by delivering mined, contextualized, modeled, and visualized data for them to act on. Now, they can dedicate more time to interpreting the results and making collaborative, data-driven decisions,” said Alan Bibb, global IT business partner manager with Neptune Energy. “With the hybrid AI workflows in Cognite Data Fusion, we’re able to focus on more holistic engineering optimization and improve time to value."
