Onshore/Offshore Facilities
By resuming work on the Rovuma LNG project, ExxonMobil tees up a final investment decision expected in 2026 as East Africa’s LNG hub begins to take shape with three separate projects now in construction.
Estimates commissioned by the Australian government suggest that increasing efficiency will lower costs for decommissioning offshore Australia.
This paper introduces an AI-driven digital fencing system designed to boost security in oil and gas fields. The main objectives are to improve security and safety of oil and gas facilities while addressing the limitations of legacy physical barriers, reducing false alarms, and eliminating the dependability on the grid in favor of renewable energy.
