The journey through oil and gas and transportation has brought me from operating oil and gas at a refinery into enabling market adoption of best-in-class asset integrity products empowered by digital transformation.
Along this path, I have noticed certain recurring challenges, hurdles and struggles. They are industry-bridging, throughout every niche and application of oil and gas and transportation: We lack independent information and therefore struggle to acknowledge complexity.
As product providers, we speak with pride about our product and its advantages over existing solutions.
As product appliers and consumers, we speak about the operating challenges we want to solve.
Wouldn’t it be neat to have an independent translator bridging this gap?
And have an independent view of challenges to be bridged in a product’s implementation?
Let us be your trusted advisor to independent information. Science-driven approaches to streamlined product implementations!
