As part of its global digital transformation, TATNEFT PJSC in cooperation with the Russian Foundation for Information Technology Development is implementing an innovation project called Integrated Digital Platform for Geological and Technological Monitoring of Oil and Gas Field Development. One of the key milestones of this project is the creation of Geophysics Management Center where all well studies and operations will be managed by highly skilled specialists in a unified digital information field. To create this center the company must have a fully digital logging infrastructure: downhole and surface equipment, software for management, transmission, processing and interpretation of data, as well as equipment for special purposes. Development of advanced hydraulic powered PKS-Online logging hoist which will allow performing automated tripping operations in autopilot mode and ensure the possibility of remote management and transmission of well logging data, will make it possible to fully automate the process and establish end-to-end digital system.

Implementation of this technology will increase the effectiveness of logging operations and oil and gas field development as a whole. Skilled geophysicist will be able to control logging process and operations in wells from Geophysics Management Center with possibility to remotely manage several geophysical crews assigned to them in real time.
