Webcast Description:
Many leading oil & gas and utilities companies are pursuing digital transformation to drive operational excellence. Across exploration, refining, power generation and distribution, petrochemical and other energy sectors, leaders are focused on reducing costs, mitigating risks, maximizing return on assets and streamlining project management.
Our research with the World Energy Council suggests the global energy industry loses $20 billion, or 5% of annual production, due to unscheduled downtime. A major contributory factor to unscheduled downtime is the inability to effectively use information on all aspects of operations. Implementing predictive maintenance is impossible when what's happening with the assets is unknown. Rather than operational information being the impediment, it must become the enabler.
Join us February 12, 2018 to learn what Digital means in energy, what leaders are doing and how it can create value for you.
