Abstract:
Abstract - For many years, the Oil & Gas Industry has been collecting huge amounts of data, turning thus slowly and gradually to “Data-centric Operations”. Unfortunately, this data collection has typically happened via many independent pieces of equipment and systems – each with its own data and interfaces. The promising features of the forthcoming 5th generation (5G) mobile networks have enhanced the Industrial Internet of Things providing technology improving safety and optimizing performance. In this work a dedicated platform aiming at the continuous collection of critical information from multiple nearshore assets and transmission of the data through a 5G network is proposed. Important details and technology challenges that drive to a competitive proposal are discussed.
