Agent-Based Petroleum Offshore Monitoring Using Sensor Networks

This paper investigates the architecture and design of agent-based sensor networks for petroleum offshore monitoring. A few challenges to monitor the reservoir, wellbore and wellhead are identified. Moreover, the necessary components for a reliable, precise, and accurate monitoring are suggested. The paper describes the architecture of the routing agent and discusses the cross layer optimization issues for query processing. The paper also provides the software design and components for a web-based continuous monitoring application. KEY WORDS Petroleum offshore, sensors, agent, query optimization
