Delivered a streaming analytics platform that ingests rig telemetry from multiple vendor hubs into Databricks, enabling real-time on-bottom drilling performance visibility for field operations.

Key outcomes

  • Near real-time drilling insights
  • Optimized depth-based storage

Scope of work

Streaming architecture, IoT integration, and operational analytics

Business challenge

High-frequency IoT telemetry arrived from multiple vendors without consistent schema governance. Historical EDR data in legacy systems needed alignment with live feeds to support unified operational reporting.

Our approach

Built a real-time Databricks pipeline using PySpark and Delta Lake with medallion architecture (bronze, silver, gold zones), depth-based on-bottom drilling aggregation, and automated historical EDR backfilling through Azure Data Lake Storage.
