The challenge

What needed to change

  • Inspection procedures across 13 rigs were managed through paper reports
  • Audits were slow and traceability was limited
  • Support from remote experts was delayed, often requiring on-site travel

The solution

How we delivered

  1. Digital checklists

    Paper inspection procedures turned into interactive, step-by-step digital checklists that ensure no step is missed.

  2. Picture-based reports

    Field crews document every inspection with photos and comments, making each audit fully traceable.

  3. Real-time remote assistance

    Experts support workers directly from the control room, seeing what the operator sees and annotating in their field of view.

  4. Certified field hardware

    ATEX Zone 1, offshore-ready XR hardware designed for hazardous industrial environments.

In offshore operations, where downtime costs are extremely high, even a small reduction in human-error-related non-productive time generates significant financial impact. The platform enables faster decision-making and operational support without requiring immediate on-site expert travel.
