The industries we serve are changing. However, our approach to engineering and design has always depended on understanding what our customers need and how that underpins the solutions we offer. Our philosophy enables our engineers to think about the lifetime of a project or asset, rather than just our deliverables. This takes shape through our Safe and Sustainable Engineering for Asset Lifecycle (SEAL) framework, which ensures we think about technical integrity, safety in design and sustainability in everything we do.
Technology
We're using digital twins, augmented and virtual reality to explore our designs in a virtual environment and make sure they perform in practice.
Automation
We’re using machine learning and robotic process automation for pipeline design, drawings and cross-referencing critical information that entire designs depend on.
Data
The Digital Experience Lab is helping us explore how artificial intelligence can improve the quality of our designs.
In the future, facilities will be operated remotely. Autonomy will be commonplace. Everything will connect to the cloud and we'll pick up failures long before they happen. We’ve been doing this for a long time, and we are excited about solving the energy challenges of the future.
