ADNOC announced an AI-enabled process optimisation technology, Neuron 5, will be rolled out to all its facilities after being tested at ADNOC Onshore’s Northeast Bab (NEB) field and ADNOC Gas’s Taweelah gas compression plant.
Neuron 5 autonomously monitors the performance of critical equipment, enabling process optimisation and preventative maintenance, reducing operational downtime, boosting efficiency, and reducing the need for time-consuming manual inspections.
It uses advanced AI models and deep learning algorithms to predict maintenance needs and monitor equipment performance by interpreting data such as pressure, temperature and vibration received from sensors on critical equipment.
Abdulmunim Saif Al Kindy, ADNOC Upstream Executive Director, said, “ADNOC is placing AI at the heart of its operations and leveraging industry-leading advanced technologies to help responsibly meet the world’s growing energy demand. The development and deployment of Neuron 5 across our upstream and downstream facilities demonstrate this strategy in action and highlight our continued progress towards our vision to become the world’s most AI-enabled energy company.”
Developed by ADNOC’s Thamama Excellence Centre, AIQ and AVEVA, the pilot phase of Neuron 5 indicated that the technology has the potential to cut the number of unplanned shutdowns by 50 per cent and enhance planned maintenance intervals across operations by 20 per cent, while freeing ADNOC operators for more productive activities.
