ExproSoft

• ExproBase: modularized knowledge base for risk analysis, failure mechanisms, technology qualification, material selection, well equipment, etc.
• WellMaster: downhole completion reliability database
• SINTEF offshore blowout database: worldwide event database on offshore blowouts
• SubseaMaster: subsea production systems reliability database
• Subsea BOP master: reliability database on subsea blowout preventer systems

Most of these are joint industry projects (JIPs) where the participating oil companies provide data input, while ExproBase and SINTEF offshore blowout databases are based on public domain data which are structured and made commercially available to the industry through annual subscriptions.

Customized Offshore Field Software Development

ExproSoft has specialized in the development of Windows™ software and client / server databases, primarily for acquisition, visualization and analysis of data from offshore field operations. Development tools used are typically C++, VB, ADO, Oracle and Visual Basic, VB.NET. Web applications are also developed using Microsoft™ .NET, XML, XMS, DTD, ASP.NET and other suitable tools. ExproBase is the company’s first major development of a web application.

Well Integrity Management System

WIMS (Well Integrity Management System) is a new software tool for well integrity management. The system provides a uniform and structured approach for the handling of well integrity during the lifetime of a well. WIMS ensures that the information necessary for handling well integrity is available through one system, with a clear indication of the well barrier and integrity status at all times.

Qualification of Well Technology

ExproSoft has extensive activities on qualification of well technology. Procedures for qualification of well technology have been developed for several major oil companies and are implemented as part of their governing documentation. These procedures provide practical work procedures and tasks, which will ensure that a proper qualification process is carried out. ExproSoft has also assisted in developing prototype equipment qualification programs for oil companies and field development
organizations.

Several qualification projects have been performed by ExproSoft for specific downhole equipment items such as wellhead check valves, downhole safety valves, sliding sleeves, inflow control valves, gas lift valves, control line running equipment and others. These qualification efforts typically lead to design improvements and reduced equipment related intervention costs in the field.
