Analytics, Dedicated Centers
Enable Real-Time Optimization
Of Devon Energy's Operations
By Kari Johnson
Special Correspondent

OKLAHOMA CITY-Oil and gas companies understand the

challenges associated with dealing with massive quantities of data,
as well as the competitive advantages that come from rapidly
extracting actionable information from "big data"-whether in the
form of 3-D seismic, drilling data, well logs, or production reports.

Given the ever-increasing volumes and variety of data, as well as

the complexities of the business and operational challenges oil
and gas companies face today, the need is greater than ever to

invest in advanced analytical functionalities to produce new insights
and optimize operations in new ways, says Kathy Ball, manager of

exploration and production analytics and data science at Devon
Energy Corp.

According to Ball, Devon Energy was an early adopter of

advanced analytics and now is applying the technology throughout
the organization, including in human resources, portfolio

management and strategic planning, basin analysis, real-time
drilling, and asset monitoring and predictive failure analysis. The

payoff is measured in bottom-line metrics such as reduced drilling
costs and increased production.
