X-Comp

Having evolved over almost 4 years, XCOMP will, through the use of a 'learning extractor', a 'Validator engine' and powerful visualisation, enable completion engineers to emulate the planned well operation for an ultimate 'complete well on paper' exercise.

XCOMP is very much in line with achieving better processes within the Oil and Gas industry.

XCOMP is primarily designed as a predictive visual tool for completions and well operations, but can also be used for learning, right scoping (used on several possible designs) and end of well reporting.

Designed for;

	Plans Generic or Specific Completion Operations.
	Predicting and reducing potential NPT events (No completion surprises).
	Reducing unwanted and unnecessary completion events (approaching the technical limit).
	Aid in the selection of 'best suited equipment' for the planned completion (correct scoping).
	Auto-implements Best Practice.
	Auto-implements relevant learning from similar operations and similar equipment.
	Auto-Validates Incompatibilities.
	Predict (or warn about) potential HS&E problems.
	Improve the time and cost estimates for more accurate budgeting.
	By use of visual tools (2D and 3D) improve the understanding of the planned operation for all involved parties, - along the whole duration of the DVA process.
	Standardise the engineer's work (peer reviews, costing, operation programmes, EOW reporting, etc.)
	Auto-Report Generator

Outcome from XCOMP ;

	Statement of Requirements (with warnings).
	Technical Exceptions (from Validator).
	HS&E Exceptions (from Validator).
	Learning Experiences (from LINK, XCOMP, etc.).
	Operational Programme (draft / skeleton).
	Time Plan and Cost Plan.
	Well and Completion Schematics.
	2D and 2D Animations.
	EOW Report (draft / skeleton).

XCOMP incorporates a lot of very good ideas for completion operations, - arguably an area often neglected in performance improvement processes.
