UiS Drillbotics

UiS Drillbotics is rated 3 out of 5 in the category higher education. Read and write reviews about UiS Drillbotics. UiS Drillbotics is a student competition hosted by the SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers) and their technical section DSATS (Drilling Systems Automation Technical Section) with the purpose of accelerating the development and implementation of advanced drilling automation technology. At the University of Stavanger (UiS), we are designing and constructing a small scale autonomous drilling rig to compete with other universities worldwide. The rig is currently completely operational and during the 2017 competition our team achieved an impressive 3rd place. We have however identified several key areas of improvement that need attention. With these improvements, our ambitions for this year’s competition are even higher. Together with Aker BP, we will implement state of the art technologies and algorithms to give us a competitive edge in the Drillbotics™ competition!
