Bumi Armada adopts artificial intelligence technology to reduce operational emissions in North Sea

Bumi Armada, international offshore energy facilities and services provider, has partnered with OPEX (an ERM Group Company) to drive down carbon emissions on its Armada Kraken FPSO facility, which serves the EnQuest-operated Kraken Field located in the northern North Sea.

“While we have already successfully achieved continued emissions reduction, we are dedicated to evolving our operations globally to ensure we integrate sustainability into daily operations,” David Clark, senior vice president of operations from Bumi Armada, said. “Adopting this technology is a big step towards utilising the power of data to better understand how our plant is being operated and where there are opportunities for improvement across our projects and operations.”

Bumi Armada will deploy OPEX Group’s emissions.AI software to deliver real-time emissions data, insights and intelligence, identifying key opportunities to reduce emissions from the facility. The technology will not only identify where the opportunities are, but also support with implementing solutions and cost saving strategies.

“Delivering best practice operational emissions management through the deployment of emissions.AI in the UKCS will allow us to expand our capability in predictive analysis and unlock further opportunities on emissions reduction across our global portfolio,” Gary Leong, vice president of HSE at Bumi Armada, said.
