How can augmented reality change the future of the oil and gas Industry
Mohammad A AlKazimi
Kuwait Oil Company, Kuwait
The concept of augmented reality is not new, yet, did get its fair share of success not until recently. In the summer of 2016,
Pokémon go took over the world by literally moving people off of their couches and into the street and neighbourhood to
capture virtual creatures via their mobile devices. Although different industries have been implementing augmented reality
as part of their business such technology into their business, yet the oil and gas industry remains well shy from considering it
for a try-out. This presentation addressed how augmented reality can be a game changer in the oil and gas industry, especially
in knowledge transfer, and technical training of the newly joined engineers, operators, and technicians, respectively. In fact,
and via the usage of handheld devices, site maintenance and operations can instantly view the repair manuals or any related
information, such as operating historical data, and any related information. Operator, on the other hand, can survey their
equipment and generate service requests in case of any abnormalities in performance. Applying advanced technology into our
industry shall revolutionize the work environment and creates new levels of competition in quality of workmanship.
