As a vital oil and gas producer worldwide, Canada’s oil and natural gas industry is actively working to reduce environmental impacts through analytics, automation and robotics, wearables, and digital twin technologies. More companies are now beginning to see and understand the role of technology in driving eco-friendliness while reducing costs in the oil and gas sector. In the wake of the various developments the industry is witnessing, the global Canada oil and gas market is projected to reach $252.2 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 1.8 percent.
This growth is predominantly driven by the adoption of automation and electronic monitoring systems to perform mundane tasks and to reduce the likelihood of injury, and improve productivity. Companies are using robotics to assist with round-the-clock surveillance and maintenance and are ensuring their human co-workers are kept out of harm’s way in the process.
To put the spotlight on many other key developments, Energy Tech Review illustrates how Canadian oil and gas solution providers and services companies are leveraging the latest technologies to help oil and gas organizations.
