Data Driven Oil and Gas Conference 2026
Houston, TX, USA
ABOUT THE SESSION
Matthew Moore, Global Subject Matter Expert in Condition Monitoring at Petrofac, shared his deep expertise at the Oil & Gas Digital Transformation Conference 2022. With over 25 years of experience, Matthew explored how machines in the oil and gas industry are becoming intelligent communicators—alerting us when they need attention. He highlighted the growing importance of predictive maintenance, especially in remote and extreme environments, and how technologies like wireless vibration sensors can help—if implemented thoughtfully. He also emphasized that a risk-based approach is essential when deploying condition monitoring in upstream operations. Leveraging AI and machine learning, he discussed the path toward prescriptive maintenance—where machines not only detect issues but suggest actionable solutions.
- Why digitalizing condition monitoring and predictive maintenance is highly desirable but more challenging for upstream Oil & Gas
- Why adopting new digital technologies such as wireless vibration sensors require more careful consideration than other industries
- Why a risk-based approach to condition-based maintenance is required when going digital and how AI and machine learning would need to think to achieve the holy grail of prescriptive maintenance
