Preventive Maintenance & Precise Assistance for Oil & Gas Industry with AR Technology
Optimize Oil Rigs: Less Travel More Uptime in Oil Refinery Equipment
Oil & Gas refineries as well as gas processing plants, pose significant challenges due to explosive atmospheres. A minor small spark or dropped tool, along with fluctuating electricity, can lead to severe consequences. Therefore, operating in these sectors require a high level of utmost precision & minimal distractions. By incorporating AR Assistance, frontline workers can work smoothly with enhanced safety & precision in operations & maintenance processes, minimizing the risk while increasing productivity of the workforce.
Pipelines Inspections & Oil Refinery Monitoring:
AR assistance enables pipeline inspections & refinery monitoring fast & accurate. With AR Genie Remote Assist, workers can get real-time AR guidance from experts for inspecting & monitoring the corrosion & other defects in pipelines & plant equipment via AR overlays & live video streaming annotation capabilities.
Offshore Oil Rig Maintenance with Augmented Reality:
Offshore operators can solve the technical issues in the oil rig plants & refineries by connecting with experts in real-time through live camera video streaming. Experts guide operators via AR annotations & instructions overlaid on the physical environment of the equipment for real-time communication & faster issue resolution & quick maintenance.
Reduce the pitfalls of Paper Manuals or Hand-held Devices:
Work hands-free with AR Genie’ integrated AR Glasses & devices for faster operation, & fix complex gas turbines, pumps & other machinery issues quicker with AR Manuals, 3D Models & digital step-by-step information overlays, right at workers’ field of vision without distractions & delay.
Minimize Downtime, Operational Cost of visiting Oil Drilling Sites:
With AR Genie’ live camera video streaming & annotation features, experts can guide frontline workers immediately in real time without visiting the actual sites of Oil rigs. This reduces the machinery downtime as well as operational cost by fixing the issues remotely with AR guidance & mark-up tools, right from the expert desk.
Mitigate Corrosions & Increase safety of Frontline Workers:
AR allows for preventive maintenance by enabling workers to detect & resolve corrosion & damaged parts at an early stage. It contributes to frontline workers' safety by providing them real-time critical information, safety alerts & evacuation routes in emergency situations, minimizing the risk of potential hazards through data visualization in large gas pipelines facilities.
Use Cases
Oilfield Equipment Maintenance & Repair
Workers can get remote assistance from experts in real time & follow step- by- step instructions or AR overlays for quick maintenance & repair of the errors or faults in the gas turbines, motors or pipelines. This enables quick troubleshooting & repairs through real time information & guidance.
Workforce Training
Augmented Reality can be used for training frontline workers or personnel's in equipment maintenance, inspection protocols, and quality control procedures. Workers can undergo immersive, hands-on training using AR smart glasses & conduct their assessment & improve skills or expertise in the particular job.
Remote Inspections, Quality Control & Audits
Inspectors can see real-time data, digital overlays & do inspections by connecting with on-site technicians using AR Smart Glasses or AR-equipped devices. This capability is particularly useful in situations where on-site inspections may be challenging or risky, allowing inspectors to check & inspect in real-time from remote locations.
