1. Pretend you are a Production Engineer in one of Oil and Gas Company in
Indonesia. You are evaluating an oil production graph below. Then you have an
idea to apply a methodology of Data Science: predictive analytics and diagnostic
analytics.

Please define:

a. Step by step of your work

Step 1: Frame the problem
The first thing you have to do before you solve a problem is to define exactly
what it is. You need to be able to translate data questions into something
actionable.
You’ll often get ambiguous inputs from the people who have problems. You’ll
have to develop the intuition to turn scarce inputs into actionable outputs–and to
ask the questions that nobody else is asking. A great way to do this is to ask the
right questions. It’s important that at the end of this stage, you have all of the
information and context you need to solve this problem.
Step 2: Collect the raw data needed for your problem
Once you’ve defined the problem, you’ll need data to give you the insights
needed to turn the problem around with a solution. This part of the process

involves thinking through what data you’ll need and finding ways to get that
data, whether it’s querying internal databases, or purchasing external datasets.

Step 3: Process the data for analysis

Now that you have all of the raw data, you’ll need to process it before you can
do any analysis. Oftentimes, data can be quite messy, especially if it hasn’t been
well-maintained. You’ll see errors that will corrupt your analysis: values set to
null though they really are zero, duplicate values, and missing values. It’s up to
you to go through and check your data to make sure you’ll get accurate insights.
Once you’re done working with those questions and cleaning your data, you’ll
be ready for exploratory data analysis (EDA).
Step 4: Explore the data
The difficulty here isn’t coming up with ideas to test, it’s coming up with ideas
that are likely to turn into insights. You’ll have a fixed deadline for your data
science project .
Step 5: Perform in-depth analysis
This step of the process is where you’re going to have to apply your statistical,
mathematical and technological knowledge and leverage all of the data science
tools at your disposal to crunch the data and find every insight you can.
You can now combine all of those qualitative insights with data from your
quantitative analysis to craft a story that moves people to action.
Step 6: Communicate results of the analysis
Ultimately, you’ve been called upon to create a solution throughout the data
science process. Proper communication will mean the difference between action
and inaction on your proposals.

b. Explain how predictive analytics and diagnostic analytics can help your
production optimization strategy
Diagnostic analytics can explain or provide rationale as to why something
happened. Diagnostic analytics gives in-depth insights into a particular problem.
Predictive analytics is making sure and predicting what will happen in the
future. Which leads to what action to take or to eliminate. The oil and gas
 UAS Eksplorasi dan Produksi Hidrokarbon

industry requires a rather complex operation. The equipment being used cost a
lot of money, for example, compressor, drilling rig, and transportation
equipment. That is why oil and gas operations needs to use predictive analytics
to monitor equipment health and predict failure. Besides that, predictive data
analytics can also characterize reservoir parameters, analyse and model reservoir
behaviour, and forecast performance to enhance decision-making.

2. Middle East oil product sales could reach 8 million-9 million b/d by 2023 as
new refineries open up in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Oman, as reported by
Glander International Bunkering senior sourcer Sean Burgin said in February
2021."This additional volume could boost business in Fujairah, complementing
bunker demand plus storage and trade activities,'' Burgin told. Refining capacity
in the Middle East is continuing to grow at pace, with a number of new, export-
oriented plants and capacity upgrades due to come onstream in the coming
years. S&P Global Platts Analytics expects total refining capacity in the Middle
East to rise to average 12 million b/d in 2023, up from 9.9 million b/d in 2019.
But if we take a look on global refinery capacity based on graph below, the
growth is almost stagnant.

Please explain:
a. Why in Middle East, predicted that the refinery project will increase but
global refinery demand is stagnant? Explain the factors.
b. Please describe the strategy to maximize the profit from oil refinery

3. Field Development Case Study:

One of giant gas field, approximate reserve of 10 TCF have been found in South
Banda Basin offshore of Eastern Indonesia. Below is the geological map. The
location of the field is offshore around 100 KM from Seram Island and the PVT
gas composition contain 5% CO2 but with 0 H2S. At Seram Island, there is an
existing oil and gas processing plant.

Please explain:
a. The step by step and workflow for the field development of this gas field.

b. Please define the facilities requirement and safety management application for
this field to be able to produce it safely

4. Bonus: Safety Engineering:

As chemical engineer, finally you get a job as Safety Engineer in one of oil and
gas company in Middle East. One day, you observe your field technician doing
the job like below picture:

You need to react and help the technician before some incident or accident
occur. Please explain:
a. What did he do wrong? Define hazard and risk?
Kesalahan yang dia lakukan adalah sebagai berikut :
- Berdiri diatas forklift
- Tidak menggunakan helm
- Tidak menggunakan Kacamata untuk keselamatan
Define Hazard and Risk :
Hazard Risk
Jatuh dari tangga Patah Tulang
Terkena perkakas Cedera Kepala
Terkena barang kecil ke daerah mata Cedera Mata

b. Please define a strategy to control the hazard.
