THE PROBLEM

VROC was engaged by an Oil and Gas operator in early 2020 to use it's artificial intelligence and machine learning predictive analytics platform to remotely monitor the health of their offshore platform in the North Sea to better understand reliability issues.

During the engagement the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions limited access to the offshore asset to only critical personnel. This meant that among others, Reliability Engineers and Process Teams were restricted to working from home and without any direct visibility of asset performance. In addition some Maintenance crew not directly related to requirements offshore, were also subject to these restrictions.

The operator needed to adapt to the new working arrangements, whilst ensuring the assets uptime, integrity, regulatory compliance and production targets were all maintained.
