A new era of Inspecting From Home (#IFH)
Our team hosted live demos at Booth #717, where we had the opportunity to connect with fellow peers and innovators, share some comfy swag, and spread our message:
With Trendspek, you can inspect O&G assets from anywhere - from large refineries to offshore platforms.
Captured safely by drone, these assets are delivered as interactive 3D models that can be explored directly from a browser.
Some recent client success stories:
- Cenovus Energy: Achieved 85% more coverage through a digital preventive maintenance program
- Applus+ Pacific: Transitioned from boots-on-ground inspections to browser-based operations.
- Wallbridge Gilbert Aztec (WGA): Reduced container crane inspection times by 50%.
Trendspek in action on the main stage
We saw Trendspek live in action on the main stage for Courtland Penk (Osprey Integrity) and Siddhart Gupta's (Suncor Energy) session on “CUI2 - Concise UAV Implementation for Corrosion Under Insulation. This presentation covered UAS-based workflows, using advanced PEC sensor technology from Voliro.
Trendspek’s platform was used to visualise Voliro T thickness testing data, with each physical location represented by the green pins.
“We're carving out drone technology, visual, infrared and most recently pulse steady current onboard a specific airframe to do quantitative testing that's really showing a lot of traction," said Courtland Penk.
Roundtable discussions on "we are at warp speed"
Some key themes across the summit included:
- Data management
Centralising and standardising data improves accessibility and usability across systems. Managing data from multiple sources is a critical focus for organisations. - Quickening "time to data"
The importance of "time to data" was a recurring theme. Data needs to be current—even 48-hour-old insights may no longer be actionable. - Aligning every team for change management
Successfully adopting new technology requires strong internal champions and alignment across leadership, middle management, and end-users. Demonstrating clear ROI and securing quick wins are crucial to driving buy-in. - Growing trends: BVLOS and AI
BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight), remote operations, and AI were highlighted as transformative priorities shaping the future of the industry. - Shout-outs from the industry: “By being able to get Osprey Integrity to fly and 3D map everything, then use the software Trendspek, we're now able to see everything and prioritise what we need to do. It's huge ROI on just time savings alone," said Tedman Jess, Drones/RPAS at Suncor Energy
