  • Patent number: 8676721
    Abstract: A method, system, apparatus (and related computer program) for intelligent management of oil and gas offshore and onshore platform surface equipment over a computer network is disclosed. The system utilizes a data aggregator for gathering real-time data streams from surface equipment located on such platform(s), such surface equipment containing one or more sensors for monitoring in real time the performance of equipment operational parameters of interest. The data analysis engine is in network communication with the data aggregator, and comprises a trained neural network capable of generating self organizing maps, and creating predictive operational parameters regarding such surface equipment. An interface is provided for inputting into the neural network various data including, for example, the published performance operational parameters for such equipment.
