Corrosion and erosion are undesirable by-products of Oil & Gas extraction activities, and one of the main concerns of production engineers. Gravel pack, sand screens, as well as costly chemical injection interventions require investments worth millions of dollars. Unfortunately, corrosion and uncontrolled sand production still generate loss of containment events in upstream activities, forcing operators to set conservative production rates due to the lack of accurate and easy-to-interpret information. To remain profitable in the Oil & Gas market, operators realize that delivering cost improvements while increasing throughput is key to achieve a healthy financial situation. Corrosion, erosion, and sand production control consume extensive capital and operating expenditures. Despite this, uncontrolled corrosion and sand production generate loss of containment events, forcing operators to set low production rates that delay the returns on project investments. This paper will outline how pervasive sensing technologies deliver Digital Transformation’s promise to upstream operators. The paper shares insights on how deploying a combination of non-intrusive sand, erosion, and corrosion monitoring technologies provides a full solution that saves millions of dollars in lost revenue and reputation costs as well as improves safety.

Keywords: Analytics, Digital Transformation, Big Data, Corrosion Monitoring, Erosion Monitoring, Erosion-Corrosion, Sand Monitoring, Digitalization, Pervasive Sensing, Industrial Internet of Things, Flowback, and Upstream
