Design of an Offshore Remote Operations Center

In alignment with the company’s offshore strategic vision of a 'lean operating model,' this project's objective was to enable the remote management of one of their facilities from the field directly to their headquarters office. This progressive shift included meticulous monitoring, control, and the capacity for remote shutdown, all centralised within their headquarters, hence improving their operational excellence and their Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) standards.

Our scope:

• Help the client develop their vision and digital roadmap
• Engineering study
• Market study for a state-of-the-art technology solution
• Assessing the best implementation option
• Manage interfaces with all parties as required
• Adequacy check of existing systems
• Physical implementation of proof of concept
