Operating Model for a Wells Drilling & Completion Control Room

A drilling and completion operating model was designed to scale well construction through 24/7 monitoring, advisory and traceable decisions

Three-Year Growth Plan

250+ wells planned over three years

Continuous Operations View

Continuous visibility across well operations

Phase One Team Model

27 roles sized for the first phase

Critical Process Review

Eight critical subprocesses reviewed in depth

A real-time room model for consistent well decisions

Operating room: 24/7 monitoring without replacing field control

Objectives

Define the room’s role, scope and governance

Opportunity

Scale activity with faster, more consistent operational decisions

Scaling well construction decisions

Higher activity demanded more integrated real-time support

Key Challenges

Rising activity
250+ wells were planned over three years

Distributed monitoring
Real-time visibility was not continuous

Data variability
Quality gaps limited reliable analysis

Decision dependency
Outcomes relied heavily on individual expertise

Solution

A hybrid operating room model for real-time monitoring, advisory and escalation

Operating model

Defined scope, roles and decision governance

24/7 monitoring

Centralized real-time operational visibility

Anomaly response

Classified events and activated escalation flows

Knowledge capture

Captured events, decisions and impacts

Impact

Consistent, scalable operations

The model strengthened visibility, coordination and traceability
