Controlling the levels of oil in produced water that is discharged to sea remains a top priority for oil and gas operating companies.

To help their customers address this regulatory and environmental challenge OPEX have developed X-OiW - a data analytics tool, which identifies and tracks the key contributors to high oil in water and provides a continuous health check of an asset’s produced water system.

This new tool builds on previous data science studies carried out with customers to identify the key contributors to high levels of oil in water. Fully automated calculation and reporting engines allow asset teams to identify a range of issues such as sub optimal hydrocyclone performance, separator arrival temperatures, residence times and their effect on oil in water levels.

X-OiW is part of a range of AI-driven tools designed by OPEX to help oil and gas asset teams address specific business challenges. These tools can be deployed on their own or alongside the X-PAS™ analytics platform.
