Pavilion Technologies, a world leader in model-based software, today announced that Landmark, a brand of the Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) Digital and Consulting Solutions Division (HDCS) enters into a relationship with Pavilion Technologies to embed Pavilion’s key modeling, control, and optimisation technology engine into their DecisionSpace® Production™ solution, a comprehensive new offering extending Landmark’s capabilities in the production domain.

Landmark’s DecisionSpace Production solution will advance the digital oilfield of the future by using the embedded Pavilion technology to generate in relative real time a single integrated asset optimisation model, which incorporates the reservoir, wells, gathering network and production facilities capable of supporting optimal decisions. This integrated production operations solution creates a virtual collaborative environment that will provide total asset awareness. In addition, a decision supports system enables management-by-exception and automated production workflows that orchestrate the collaboration necessary to achieve and sustain production optimisation.

The combination of Landmark and Pavilion technologies will position Landmark as the leading provider of Integrated Production Operations solutions to meet the production challenges faced by the industry. Operators expect Integrated Production Operations to create billions of dollars in value by increasing production and recovery while decreasing costs.

“Technology from these two companies resolves one of the fundamental problems faced by the industry in defining the digital oilfield of the future,” said HDCS vice president Innovation and Marketing, Jonathan Lewis. “The technology overcomes the limitations of traditional modeling technologies and establishes critical sub-surface / surface interfaces. By overcoming the resource and time constraints of traditional full physics simulators in relating critical interdependencies that occur across the value chain, it enables accurate, dynamic and relevant interpretation of multiple scenarios and actual conditions in real time. Due to the scope of the modeling engine and the execution speed of the decision support system, this technology relationship makes the vision of a real time integrated asset model a pragmatic and compelling reality”.

“This relationship validates the power and value of Pavilion’s predictive modeling engine,” said Pavilion Technologies president and chief executive officer Ralph Carter. “Our agreement allows Landmark’s customers to incorporate a variety of model types to create one single asset model that executes fast enough to make a real impact.”
