The document discusses using digital technologies like IoT, cloud, and analytics (Industry 4.0 concepts) to create an autonomous oil field. It describes how an IoT platform can be used for high-frequency data collection, edge automation, optimization, and control to enhance production, maximize uptime, and improve efficiency. Specifically, it presents a failure prediction model for electric submersible pumps that aims to minimize deferred production through early failure detection based on machine learning of monitoring parameters. Validation of the model showed 98% predictive precision, a 28% reduction in deferred production, and 50 more days of uptime per pump.
