GenAI in Heavy process industries: mitigating risks
The oil & gas, mining and chemicals industries produce products central to modern life, but they face challenges from geopolitical uncertainties, decarbonization and regulatory complexity. AI in operational technology promises to help mitigate these risks.
In terms of identified benefits within the sector, increasing the resilience of production is vital in all industries, and AI can reduce unplanned downtime and mitigate the impact of any supply chain disruption. AI also plays a key role in helping optimize energy use in plants and simplify complex regulatory reporting.
Inside the factsheet:
- Top GenAI use cases: Predictive maintenance, supply chain management, and condition-based monitoring
- Key challenges including geopolitical instability, environmental concerns, global compliance
- Why secure, connected digital infrastructure is essential for scaling AI in OT in highly sophisticated heavy process manufacturing
