DynOps™
More Insight. More Predictability. Smarter Offshore Operations.
DynOps™ is a digital service that helps operators and rig contractors increase insight and predictability, by optimising rig operability and accelerating situational awareness in weather-dependent offshore operations.
TRUSTED BY INDUSTRY LEADERS
The Old Way
- Offshore drilling operations are constrained by static, conservative WSOG limits – leading to excessive thruster use and higher fuel consumption.
- Increased waiting on weather and lost time, with limited ability to plan or act ahead of changing conditions.
- Reduced efficiency in both planning and execution of weather-dependent operations.
The DynOps™ Way
- Dynamic, data-driven guidance based on actual rig conditions and prevailing weather – removing unnecessary conservatism from WSOG.
- Higher operability, safer and more efficient operations, and reduced fuel consumption and emissions.
- Critical decision support delivered simultaneously to onshore and offshore personnel, combining real-time measurements, analysis data, and weather forecasts.
Key Benefits
With its advanced capabilities, DynOps™ provides essential tools simultaneously to onshore and offshore personnel. Please see our key benefits for a quick introduction:
-
DynOps uses forecasted and live weather data to dynamically adjust operational limits. This allows rigs to operate safely in conditions that would otherwise trigger conservative shutdowns, increasing uptime and reducing unnecessary delays.
-
By forecasting rig behavior under upcoming weather scenarios, DynOps helps crews anticipate and avoid waiting-on-weather (WoW) situations. In a recent study, DynOps had the potential to reduce weather-related delays by up to 45% and thruster usage by 30%.
-
Operators receive clear, continuously updated guidance based on actual rig response and forecasted conditions. This replaces guesswork with actionable insights, improving coordination between offshore and onshore teams.
-
DynOps integrates mooring analysis, rig motion data, and line break simulations to detect potential hazards early. This enables timely interventions and safer operations, especially in dynamic environments.
-
All data is accessible via REST API and integrated into the 4Insight platform. Users can manually input weather scenarios, compare forecasts, and toggle between drilling and non-drilling modes.
-
DynOps is designed to work across different rigs, weather providers, and operational setups. It supports multiple forecast sources, confidence metrics, and rig-specific configurations, making it adaptable to diverse offshore needs.
-
The dashboard presents complex analysis in a user-friendly format, with visual toggles, confidence indicators, and mode-specific envelopes. This empowers users to make informed decisions quickly, even under pressure.
client testimonial
“First time exposed to anything like DynOps with regards to a digital WSOG. With variable inputs and parameters, it lets the team maximise operations with a high degree of confidence. A great aid when planning and executing decisions, especially as we commence operating in harsher conditions in the North Sea. The system helps us decide timings of critical hold points and is now a key part of our own adverse weather meetings on board. Increases operational safety and efficiency whilst reducing emissions. Excellent tool to add into the decision support & decision making, with both CDE and client benefiting from this service.” Dave Coull
