Industrial IoT in oil and gas applications touches both operations and maintenance.  With connectivity to process, mechanical, electrical, and structural data; insights drive field action to improve production performance and equipment reliability.

Field action places workers in dangerous environments with complicated tasks to perform.   Connecting the worker to standard procedures, to remote experts, and to current equipment data facilitates execution of work.  The plant enjoys “first time fix”,  work documentation, and real-time training and support.  The connected worker further benefits from a hands-free interface,  deploying the connectivity in the safest format possible.   Lastly, the same connected worker infrastructure offers on the job training, including the ability for experienced operations and maintenance personnel to share their experience and knowledge as captured visual and step by step instructions.   This presentation describes the context of the connected worker, and shares details of its work execution benefits with demonstrations
