Tullow Oil, a leading independent energy company, has signed a partnership agreement with Opsealog, a renowned provider of maritime digitalization and fleet performance management solutions.
The agreement aims to digitalize Tullow Oil’s marine operations in Ghana, enhancing efficiency, reducing environmental footprint, and optimizing performance.
As part of the agreement, four Tullow platform supply vessels (PSVs) and anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) vessels operating in Ghana’s offshore oil fields will be equipped with Opsealog’s cutting-edge e-reporting system, Streamlog, and its data integration and performance platform, Marinsights.
The digitalization process is expected to provide accurate vessel tracking, and insights to optimize fuel consumption and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
According to Opsealog, the partnership will empower Tullow Oil’s onshore teams with granular, data-driven insights to improve fleet performance and reduce environmental impact.
“This partnership with Opsealog marks an important step in the digitalisation of our marine operations, equipping our teams with the tools they need to improve performance and reduce our environmental footprint,” said Tullow’s Head of Logistics, Samuel Kwesi Dickson.
Vessel reporting
The Opsealog solutions will also be used for vessel reporting, streamlining data collection, and supporting forecasting and cost tracking.
This is expected to ensure data accuracy, eliminate duplicated input, and enable the energy company to monitor vessel activity in real time.
The Business Development Manager of Opsealog, Briac Lemée, noted that “This project is a great example of how data and fuel efficiency expertise can work together towards sustainability objectives.
It empowers Tullow Oil Ghana’s onshore teams with the right data to deliver high-value analysis and inform strategic decision-making to improve the utilisation of their assets.”
Tullow Oil operates two oil fields in Ghana, Jubilee and TEN, with plans to commence a new drilling campaign in May 2025.
The partnership with Opsealog is a significant step towards digitalizing its marine operations and achieving its sustainability objectives.
The digitalisation of Tullow Oil’s marine operations is expected to have a positive impact on the company’s environmental footprint, operational efficiency and bottom line.
With the help of Opsealog’s cutting-edge solutions, Tullow Oil is poised to take its marine operations to the next level, setting a new standard for sustainability and efficiency in the industry.
The benefits of the partnership are expected to improve operational efficiency, enhance environmental sustainability, increase data accuracy and transparency and better decision-making through data-driven insights.
It is also expected to improve vessel performance and utilisation
With this partnership, Tullow Oil and Opsealog are paving the way for a more sustainable and efficient future for the oil and gas industry.
