Digital Twin for Carbon Management in Offshore Oil & Gas Platform

Subrata Bhowmik, Principal Engineer – Innovation at McDermott International, Ltd., brings over two decades of experience in driving digital transformation across the oilfield, subsea, and wind sectors. With a strong foundation in system design optimisation, digital twin development, and operational analytics, he has led high-impact projects for top-tier energy operators. A specialist in predictive maintenance and true digital twins, Subrata combines technical depth with advanced software skills in MATLAB, Python, R, and leading BI tools. A Chartered Engineer and Fellow of IMarEST and CMI, he will share his insights on leveraging Digital Twin technology for effective carbon management in offshore oil & gas platforms, showcasing how innovation can accelerate sustainability goals.


He will delve into how digital twins can serve as a transformative enabler for carbon management in offshore oil and gas platforms by providing continuous monitoring, simulation, and optimization of emission sources. His session will explore the development of a net-zero digital twin framework that incorporates emission data modeling, advanced analytics, and AI-driven forecasting to identify mitigation opportunities. He will also discuss practical implementation strategies, challenges in integration, and a cost-benefit analysis to help operators make informed decisions. This approach not only supports regulatory compliance but also enhances operational efficiency while progressing toward decarbonization goals.
