DSDE: Emerging Technology

A recent mission that saw the robot submarine Autosub Long Range, better known as "Boaty McBoatface," explore and visually map end-of-life oil fields has been hailed as a success.

Feeding better battery storage with the energy produced by cleaner sources such as solar panels and wind turbines is not a new idea. But are good ideas enough? Or could AI be the answer to unlocking the true value of the next generation of solar and energy innovations?

Increasingly intense heat waves, wildfires, and droughts are forcing costly adaptations.

New research led by the University of Glasgow’s School of Psychology and Neuroscience presents an approach to understand whether the human brain and deep neural networks recognize things in the same way.

The device allows for increased worker safety by monitoring surroundings and connecting to managers in real time.

Swiss robotics company Hydromea and Scottish remote technology firm ACE have agree to work together to use the world’s first underwater wireless remotely operated vehicle for inspection of offshore facilities.

Peter Bernard, CEO of Datagration, discusses how oil and gas industry predictive maintenance doesn’t just provide an economic value, it also boosts safety by anticipating unpredicted failures among aging infrastructure.

With a holistic approach to building the digital thread and digital twin, companies can realize improvements in project execution, operational efficiency, sustainability, and revenue.

Incorporating domain knowledge into your architecture and your model can make it a lot easier to explain the results, both to yourself and to an outside viewer. Every bit of domain knowledge can serve as a stepping stone through the black box of a machine learning model.

Connected safety is growing, including in the oil patch. And it is tied to the wearable technology so prevalent today.
