Abstract:

In many areas, expert knowledge is usually associated to a little number of specialists. Big companies, such as the petroleum companies, naturally employ a lot of specialists. However, the knowledge of these specialists is not fully available to support the whole company at the same time. The software MAICE is a tool which can be used to model and keep expert knowledge. Being storage, the expert knowledge can be used in order to provide expertise and support operational decisions, without requiring the specialist presence since it represents the specialist opinion. The tool may be applied in various areas like medicine, logistics and many engineering applications. It was originally developed as partnership with Petrobras (2007-2011) and its first applications refer to artificial lift methods. The objective of this work is to present some examples of MAICE applications and also presenting this software as a tool to be applied in a general context of oil and gas.
