As oil and gas prices remain volatile, companies are turning to companies like ZEDEDA, to harness the use of data and increased automation to streamline operations and gain a competitive advantage
Pulling timely actionable insights from edge environments like oil rigs, wells and refineries can save millions of dollars by reducing equipment failure and safety issues and maintaining regulatory compliance. These environments, however, can be very remote and may have limited on-site staff, so addressing these challenges requires tools designed to simplify managing and securing edge infrastructure.
ZEDEDA has been helping oil and gas operators accelerate their digital transformation and increase their ability to remotely manage connected operations. Working with Advantech and Arrow Electronics, the company produced a new, combined solution for Connected Oilfield Systems to help streamline and reduce costs in oil and gas field operations.
Even though executives recognise digitisation as the key to unlocking the gains they seek, deploying those technologies at scale remains elusive. Research from McKinsey showed that while almost every company has begun running digitisation projects, 70% have not moved beyond the pilot phase.
ZEDEDA joins innovation panel at Data Driven Oil and Gas USA 2023 conference
ZEDEDA’s VP of business development, Michael Maxey, will present at the Data Driven Oil and Gas USA 2023 Conference on Tuesday, June 20 at 2:50 pm CT. Maxey will be part of the panel, along with Jim Sage, IT manager – emerging technologies and solution architecture at Oxy; Scott Parent, VP field technology at ANSYS; Prabu Parthasarathy, global VP partner success at Cognite and Joe Perino, president and CEO at PERTEX.
The discussion will look at how technological advances are making data-driven operating models a reality for oil and gas companies as they look to digitise their businesses. Because their equipment is often in remote, unstaffed locations, companies need real-time visibility into their assets and data to operate effectively.
“There’s so much opportunity for the oil and gas industry to innovate with edge AI and IoT solutions,” says Maxey. “Deploying edge computing platforms can help organisations become more efficient, keep people safe and achieve a greener future.”
