The digital energy company

Transforming through robotics

Equinor is robot-ready — and they are already in daily use in many areas of our business.

Years of investment in IT infrastructure, advanced data analytics, machine learning and AI, software development and third-party solutions, a cloud first strategy, all based on the recognition that data and connectivity will transform Equinor, our industry and society. We have the technical core to transform through robotics.

We use drones and robots to do more of the dangerous, dirty, distant and the dull jobs for us, leaving our employees to focus even more time on innovative tasks and solutions.

From inspection of chemical tanks to subsea pipelines, and maintenance work such as sand blasting and painting, robots and drones are transforming the way we work. They extend our reach and capability in environmental monitoring and are also being tested for logistical flights offshore.

Did you know that data sets from our Northern Lights, Volve and Hywind Scotland assets are open and available to researchers and students?

If you didn’t — here’s why we’re sharing them, what they contain, how to access them, and what it’s been used for so far. Data is the new oil, and we’re sharing a lot of it!

By sharing data, we can foster new ideas to solve complex energy problems.
