BP is Improving Safety and Efficiency by Using Robotics to Inspect Offshore Sites Remotely

Centralizing domain expertise while having access to detailed inspection data from many remote sites provides BP a new level of operational efficiency. BP uses Formant to collect, consolidate, and visualize all the data obtained during an inspection in a single dashboard. Formant ingests the robot telemetry, video, audio, as well as any data that comes from additional sensors mounted on Spot, such as methane detectors, thermal, infrared, ultraviolet, and hyperspectral data. Viewing all data feeds together, in context, enables operators to compare data that would not normally be contained in a single location. Formant's timeline navigation provides a simple and easy way to review and dive into particular moments of interest, even tagging an event to share with team members.
