OSLO, Norway Aker BP, Schlumberger, and StimWell Services have established a well intervention and stimulation alliance that aims to accelerate and boost oil production.

The companies entered into a 5+5-year tripartite agreement.

Through collaboration, innovative technologies, and digitization the alliance aims to transform conventional intervention operations with clear targets of propelling hydrocarbon production on new and existing assets on the Norwegian continental shelf.

The alliance focus will span interventions operations, with Schlumberger as partner for wireline logging, perforation and well stimulation through digital slickline, coiled tubing and flowback operations on Aker BP’s fixed installations, and StimWell as partner for vessel-based stimulation services.

The alliance’s collaboration model is said to accelerate access to digitized cloud computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, proprietary technologies, integration of data with petrotechnical expertise and digital models, to overcome challenges and realize full production potential throughout life-of-field.

Personnel from the three organizations will be collocated at Aker BP’s offices in Jåttavagen in Stavanger using a new onshore collaboration center, fully enabled for bidirectional data live feed with the offshore operations for 24/7 real-time support and decision making.
