"Prediktor is active in the OPC Foundation OPC UA working groups, and has been very innovative in advancing the cause of the OPC UA technology."
It’s all about achieving and maintaining operational excellence
Our mission is help the oil and gas industries become the very best versions of themselves by maximizing performance and efficiency. Our core focus is to achieve interoperability between smart technologies, throughout assets and across portfolios, and to simplify scalability so that it is cost effective and always in control. We achieve this by ensuring the right data, in the right quality and the right format flows easily to where it is needed, when it is needed.

Industry standard protocols and open information models help overcome the industry’s biggest and most costly challenges
Digital disconnect – in a world where everything is connected to a cloud or a server, directly connecting smart technologies in order to automate functions remains one of the biggest challenges. We use Advanced Operations Semantics in order to standardise and align data, regardless of vendor or protocol, so that smart technologies can connect, share a defined context, and collaborate on shared tasks.
Lack of standardization – whether it’s updating old technology with new, trying to connect different technologies from different vendors, or migrating assets and acquisitions, a lack of standardization often leads to vendor lock-in and compromises. We standardize all systems, protocols and data formats so you can simplify operations, scale with confidence and access best-in-class technology regardless of vendor.
Interoperability challenges – the more smart technology an asset has, the more people are needed to wrangle and clean that data. Our industry standard protocols and open information models enable plug-and-play interoperability solutions that are repeatable across assets and portfolios. This means your data scientists can switch focus from housekeeping to performance.
Scaling up pilot projects – digital disconnect and a lack of standardization mean that most scale-up pilot projects spiral out of control, with deadlines, resources and costs being pushed beyond reasonable limits. Because we work with industry standard protocols and use open information models that are repeatable across assets, we make scalability pilot projects more predictable and more manageable. Whether scaling up horizontally or vertically, you can quickly scale your asset to where it needs to be.
An aging, retiring workforce – there are many factors driving urgency around digitization, but one that is often overlooked is an aging and retiring workforce that holds mission critical expertise and knowledge. Not only are such resources becoming increasingly harder to secure, the cost of those resources is increasing with the demand. Standardizing assets, automating functions and maximising interoperability is key to achieving the operational excellence that this rapidly changing industry demands.
Thomas J. Burke | OPC Foundation President & Executive Director
"Prediktor has with their Apis software secured a stable real-time data stream of time series data from the offshore field center. A stable dataflow to shore are considered critical for Johan Sverdrup and the digital agenda. Utilization of real-time data supports a large amount of internal users and external stakeholders with their work processes."
