Harbour Energy is the largest independent oil and gas company operating on the UKCS and has interests in Indonesia, Vietnam, Mexico and Norway. The company has grown through mergers and acquisition of assets from other operators resulting in a diverse portfolio of engineering systems with variable information quality. In 2021, an initiative was launched to establish a digital twin solution covering their UK operated assets to enable value creation through the use of shared and collaborative platform for engineering, operational, and project data.  

In this episode of the Hexagon Digital Twin podcast series, we will be examining with Harbour Energy’s James Sitter, VP for Modifications and Project Services, and James Buchan, Technical Data Team Lead, the background for their digital twin initiative, what has been achieved to date and how the platform will now be actively used to ensure collaborative execution of sustaining engineering projects across the value chain and the business benefits expected. Plans to move beyond the digital twin towards achieving autonomy through a Smart Digital Reality will also be explored.
