Rig i-Vision: a visual knowledge library
The key challenges facing the Oil & Gas industry include managing HSE and delivering increasingly complex wells. This, while dealing with escalating costs, high staff turnover and less experienced resources.
At Exceed, we're always looking for ways to help you maintain the highest safety standards, develop your people, manage knowledge, transfer best practice, and overcome any obstacles that impede performance.
This is where Rig iVision comes in.
Rig iVision is an innovative solution that uses video to capture all key and non-routine drilling and completion activities. The Rig iVision library is subsequently used to induct new arrivals, assist in pre-job planning, communicate across language barriers, and accelerate the learning curve of new arrivals.
“The videos work because they show our own people doing the job on our own rig - they’re invaluable and highly effective!”
Operator, West Africa
Recent research proves that a combination of video learning and training provides most effective knowledge transfer:
Workshop effectiveness: 19%
Video effectiveness: 72%
Video & on-the-job training: 92%
The captured footage is professionally edited into a library of short video clips, comlete with voice over, subtitling, and other means to emphasise key learning points and safety messages. The library is made available to the rig team as a centrally accessed and codified operations / HSE management system.
The Rig iVision solution combines the following:
1. Video libraries with subtitling and subject matter expert voice-over
2. Downloadable PDF of the procedures
3. Pre-job checklist
4. Risk assessment
5. Appropriate Lessons Learned
6. Required permits
7. 2/3-D modelling of what’s taking place downhole / subsea
8. Ultimately leading up to a Q&A confirmation of learning (HSE, technical or both)
Originally developed whilst working with a client in West Africa faced with inexperienced staff and a language barrier, Rig iVision has developed into an innovative and effective knowledge management solution. Its effectiveness lies particularly in the use of visual learning, which is the prefered learning style for 70% of the global population.
With Rig iVision, Exceed has introduced a solution that brings all the benefits of video learning while providing clients with an opportunity to develop a professional internal knowledge library.
The results?
Improved HSE awareness, effective communication increased understanding, accelerated learning, and transfer of best practice.
Rig iVision is a visual legacy library that is guaranteed to increase the effectiveness of communication and pre-job learning in your operation. Once implemented, Rig iVision will soon be an essential part of effective Knowledge Management on your rig.
