    Thank you to the SBM Offshore & ExxonMobil teams for providing us with this excellent opportunity.

    ExxonMobil, represented by Vikas Shukla due to the absence of one of the project leads Amitava Guha at this session in SPRINT Robotics WC, presented the results of a co-developed robotic initiative with SBM Offshore. This initiative marked one of the first times a drone was flown inside a cargo oil tank on an FPSO offshore to perform inspection tasks. Safely flying a non-intrinsically safe drone inside a fuel tank is no small feat—it requires meticulous planning and several task risk assessment sessions, involving numerous professionals across various fields. This project was a success, with collaboration between the technology and operations teams being the key differentiator. On SBM’s side, the project was brilliantly led by Bruno Gomes. The SBM Robotics Team was recognized among the Top 3 best projects in the Innovation category of the SBM Award 2024. We are all very proud and honored with this recognition by our CEO Oivind Tangen. We extend this award and recognition to all ExxonMobil and SBM teams who contributed to any part of this unprecedented initiative. This achievement marks a significant step forward in advancing technology adoption within our operations. One Team 🇬🇾 🇧🇷 🇫🇷 🇵🇹 🇳🇱 🇲🇨 Thank you to the AVESTEC team, who worked with us to make this possible.

    Inspecting FPSOs in harsh marine environments is no easy task, especially with high temperatures, confined spaces, and the need for precise corrosion monitoring. Recently, a major breakthrough in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) was achieved during the inspection of an FPSO tank, where both Ultrasonic Testing (UT) and Visual Testing (VT) were conducted using SKYRON, an intelligent flying robot designed to perform NDT inspections faster, safer, and more cost-effectively.

    What truly distinguishes SKYRON 2 is its exceptional efficiency, allowing inspections to be completed in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods. SKYRON 2 not only generates precise 3D maps and tags data in real-time but also maintains position awareness as it navigates and inspects industrial assets. This efficiency extends beyond the inspection process—minimizing setup time, preventing unscheduled maintenance shutdowns, and ensuring uninterrupted productivity. For businesses that rely on seamless operations, SKYRON 2 is a game-changer. #Efficiency #Innovation #NDT #SKYRON2 #UTInspection

    FPSOs (Floating Production Storage and Offloading units) demand meticulous inspection due to exposure to harsh marine environments, including waves, currents, and saltwater corrosion. Additionally, given the nature of the asset, corrosion monitoring in hull tanks and oil storage is critical. Advanced inspection and monitoring can help prevent catastrophic events. Ultrasonic Testing (UT) and Visual Testing (VT) are imperative methods employed to ensure the structural integrity of these vessels. These inspections identify corrosion, erosion, or damage that may compromise their strength, allowing for timely repairs and maintenance to prevent costly downtime or accidents caused by tank failures.

    As Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technology advances, industries like energy, oil and gas, and maritime cargo are demanding more sophisticated, efficient, and safer inspection methods. Traditional approaches may no longer meet the complex requirements of today’s critical infrastructure inspections. Avestec's latest development, SKYRON 2, introduces significant advancements in this area, notably through its use of SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology and 3D mapping capabilities.
