Technology

In furtherance of its quest to become the world’s most AI-enabled energy company, ADNOC has deployed Neuron 5, an industry leading AI-enabled process optimisation technology

The technology was developed by ADNOC, AIQ and AVEVA and has been sucessfully deployed at ADNOC Onshore’s Northeast Bab (NEB) field and ADNOC Gas’s Taweelah gas compression plant across hundreds of pieces of equipment. It autonomously monitors performance of critical equipment, enabling process optimisation and preventative maintenance, reducing operational downtime, boosting efficiency and reducing the need for time-consuming manual inspections. Neuron 5 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. It has the potential to cut the number of unplanned shutdowns by 50% and enhance planned maintenance intervals across operations by 20%, while freeing ADNOC operators for more productive activities.

Rolling out across all ADNOC facilities

Neuron 5 will now be rolled out in all ADNOC facilities across thousands of critical pieces of equipment essential for production, including compressors, valves and generators.
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 demonstrates this strategy in action and highlights our continued progress towards our vision to become the world’s most AI-enabled energy company.”

ADNOC’s deployment of AI and digital technologies is at the heart of its strategy to increase production capacity while enhancing safety, sustainability and efficiency.
