Shared Operational Awareness and Collaboration
Powerful tools to integrate, calculate and visualise complex data to improve decision-making
Overview
Estimates put unplanned downtime at more than 30 hours a month per offshore facility, costing the industry billions of dollars a year. Much of its root cause lies in the lack of robust data to inform planned maintenance and operational decisions.Â
At Eigen we understand the interplay of people, plant, and process. We build and integrate solutions that provide accurate, timely status of plant and process performance and enable teams to work together to keep operations running safely and reliably.
The Eigen Analytics Platform provides high-end visualisation, data integration and collaboration tools, including world-class solutions like Confluence, to enable on and offshore teams to collaborate confidently and proactively.

Context
Typical oil and gas operations are hugely reliant on people to gather data, make decisions and take action.
Knowing who you have on board, shift rotas, flights planned, permits etc., are major sources of inefficiency and tension – and require full-time staff to administer.
Without the latest, accurate information operational teams cannot collaborate with each other, meaning the facility runs sub-optimally at best and unsafely at worse.
Consequences:
- Offline reports do not give the full operational picture leaving senior management and onshore staff less informed of the latest developments.
- No single source of truth increases the risk of poor decisions and creates inefficiencies as people work harder to compensate.
- Knowledge is poorly captured or kept in silos, impacting the operator’s ability to learn
Goals
Impact
- Share situational awareness on dashboards drives efficiency and improves decision-making and planning
- The right information flows to the right people at the right time and place.
- Silos break down as confidence in both data and across teams increases.
- Staff shift to more proactive behaviours, offering ideas, positive challenges, and feedback.
