Oil & Gas Operations Blog
Practical guidance on permit to work, process safety management, joint integrity, and digital transformation for oil and gas and offshore energy operators — from the Elisian team.
Isolation Management Software for Offshore Wind
Isolation management software for offshore wind must track turbine, array and substation boundaries across parties who rarely share a network signal.
Control of work in offshore wind O&M contracts
Offshore wind O&M is split across separate OEM, balance-of-plant and marine contracts, and control of work data decides who pays when things go wrong.
Control of Work vs Permit to Work vs CMMS
CMMS, control of work and permit to work aren't interchangeable — see which system actually authorises HV isolation, SIMOPS conflicts and permit suspension.
Choosing control of work software for offshore wind
Most offshore wind control of work software comparisons are vendor pitches. This is a neutral checklist covering the questions procurement teams should ask.
Offshore wind control of work software vendors
Offshore wind control of work software spans three very different vendor types — here's how to tell them apart before you book a single demo.
Control of Work Software in Offshore Wind
Offshore wind O&M teams still run permits on paper or spreadsheets — here's what control of work software needs to do differently offshore.
Digital control of work: connecting the system
Permits, isolations, SIMOPS and handovers often sit in separate systems — here's where those gaps actually break down on live, busy assets.
Shift handover protocols that keep SIMOPS safe
Cross-permit dashboards don't survive a shift change on their own — see what an area authority handover briefing needs when SIMOPS crews rotate mid-operation.
Building a Permit Interaction Matrix
A laminated permit interaction matrix can't check itself against live work on site. Here's how to build one that actually flags conflicts at permit issue.
