碳捕获和储存 (CCS) 已成为钻井工人为世界可持续发展做出贡献的一种潜在可行途径。罗克韦尔自动化欧洲、中东和非洲地区过程工业经理 Alain Hermans 表示，处理井下数据以帮助钻井工人更高效地钻探油气井的自动化系统在钻探 CCS 注入井方面也大有裨益。在 11 月 4 日于阿布扎比举行的 2024 年 ADIPEC 上接受DC采访时，Hermans 先生讨论了数据驱动的自动化可以帮助钻井工人在碳捕获作业中提高效率。他还谈到了罗克韦尔与 Drillmec 合作开发碳捕获井自动钻井系统，以及其在中东的其他工作。

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has emerged as a potentially viable route for drillers to contribute to the world’s sustainability push. The automated systems that process downhole data to help drillers drill oil and gas wells more efficiently can also be a major benefit in drilling CCS injection wells, said Alain Hermans, Manager of Process Industries, EMEA at Rockwell Automation. In this interview with DC from the 2024 ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi on 4 November, Mr Hermans discussed the efficiencies that data-driven automation can help drillers unlock in carbon capture operations. He also talked about Rockwell’s partnership with Drillmec on developing an automated drilling system for carbon capture wells, along with its other work in the Middle East.
