HSE misstep can lead to significant reputational damage, astronomical fines and corporate/personal criminal liability. Key challenges include

  • Upstream – Unsafe remote drilling and production operations, environmental concerns with new extraction methods like fracking

  • Midstream - Aging pipeline infrastructure causes leaks & theft

  • Downstream - Unexpected refinery shutdowns, greenhouse gas and other emissions

HSE Digitization

  • Technology can help mitigate these HSE risks.

  • Digitization involves applying cutting edge new technologies listed to existing products, practices platforms, solutions, services and processes to create new value and reduce risk

  • Structured collection of high-quality data and advanced analysis can help companies produce actionable HSE insights in real time.

Exploration and Production

  • Digital Oilfield with real time reporting, data sharing

  • Biometrics, cybersecurity to prevent unauthorized access to assets

  • Reduce onsite personnel with remote operations using Robotics, Drones, Telematics

  • OMS Compliance System with alerts, root cause tracking and digital center of excellence

  • Worker Safety Apps w Check lists, Wearables, AR/VR

Transport and Pipelines

  • Real time monitoring of pipelines with sensors and drones

  • Autonomous Transport, Connected and automated vehicle technology reduce emissions and save fuel 8-15%

Refining and Distribution

  • AI/Predictive Maintenance reduces refinery downtime,

  • Real time reporting

  • Asset management analytics, 3d printing improves sustainability reduces material usage

  • Transactions / contracts using block chain reduce operational risk and ensure compliance
