The Bakken formation in North Dakota produces over 1 million barrels of oil per day from thousands of wells spread across the western part of the state. Operators face unique challenges: extreme weather, remote locations, and the need to service thousands of wells with limited crews and equipment. AI scheduling helps Bakken operators optimize well servicing routes, artificial lift maintenance, and field operations to maximize production while controlling costs.
Bakken Field Operations
- Production: 1+ million barrels per day
- Wells: 15,000+ active wells
- Geography: Remote, spread across western ND
- Weather: Extreme cold winter operations
Geographic Challenge
With thousands of wells spread across remote locations, optimizing service routes and crew assignments is critical. AI scheduling minimizes travel time and ensures the right crews reach the right wells at the right time.
Scheduling Challenges
- Well servicing route optimization
- Artificial lift system maintenance
- Workover rig scheduling
- Winter operations planning
- Crew and equipment allocation
AI Scheduling Applications
- Routing: Optimize field technician routes
- Prioritization: Focus on highest-value wells
- Maintenance: Predictive artificial lift service
- Resources: Equipment and crew allocation
