Utilizing Autonomous Robots for improving HSE compliance
The biggest roadblock for oil and gas facilities with thousands of assets in multiple locations is capturing reliable data on regular basis through Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning Solutions. One solution is to upgrade existing facilities which leads to potential integrity issues and higher costs hence it is not a viable solution.
Specific, reliable, and regular data lies at the centre of all AI-driven safety and asset management solutions. The way forward is to collect this data effectively without increasing expenditure.
A good foundation for data collection is to rely on existing programs including but not limited to the Safety Case, Safety Critical Equipment, Risk Based Inspection program, Audit Plans etc. to develop a list of critical data to collect. Utilizing autonomous robots for safety & asset management is a cost effective and rapid solution as compared to IIOT based sensor networks.
The key to successful implementation of autonomous robots is a technology partner who is an expert in asset and safety management.
