Perspectives

During the past fifteen years, we have helped operators deliver dramatic results through deployment of digital technologies, and acceleration over the past five years, but the paths they have taken to transform have been different. Here are a few we have observed.

At Eigen, we build and deploy live data models as part of a digital twin for oil and gas facilities. One of the challenges in doing this is how to combine the physical and the abstract into a working data model to manage risk.

There’s a lot of hype about digital twins in oil and gas. Much is well-founded, since the integration of the underlying technologies that make digital twins possible have potential to accelerate much needed digital transformation in the sector. But you can’t believe everything you read.
