What machine learning really means

We've been using machine learning (ML) for years. It's been a big factor in our development to help oil and gas producers on their digital transformation journey to autonomous operations using the exact solutions that will bring them more production, profits, and sustainability.

What is Machine Learning?

Machine Learning (ML) is a method of data analysis that automates analytical model building. It is a branch of artificial intelligence based on the idea that systems can learn from data, identify patterns and make decisions with minimal human intervention.

Machine learning focuses on developing computer programs that can access data and use it to learn by themselves. The learning process begins with observations or data, such as examples, direct experience, or instruction, which guides us to find patterns in the data and make better decisions in the future based on the cases we deliver. The main goal is to allow devices to learn repeatedly without human involvement or assistance and to modify actions if necessary.

Machine Learning Capabilities

By integrating powerful automation with Emerson's secure, scalable DeltaV™ SaaS SCADA, you can maximize your return on your investment, and do it quickly. 

Our machine learning capabilities deliver stronger production data, analyze health and performance metrics, and streamline day-to-day processes. This allows for oil and gas companies to facilitate a digital transformation of their operations.

Digital transformation of equipment, systems, and processes allows companies to efficiently address factors that lead to a production decline and take the necessary steps to increase fixed asset uptime and meet performance expectations. Your technicians and engineers can benefit from conveniently accessing and analyzing this data in real-time to make faster, more informed decisions. 

For Example, DeltaV SaaS SCADA with Pipeline Protect can reduce HSE exposure with reliable alarms of potential leaks and fast, with AI-based response protocols developed through machine learning. Our system is engineered with intuitive machine learning capabilities to calculate appropriate responses and recommend corresponding actions for preventing exposure, reducing additional risk and maintaining compliance.

Advanced analytics and machine learning enable predictive maintenance and business optimization to help oil and gas companies work towards autonomous operations.

Emerson is committed to and continues to invest in technology to help guide your journey to autonomous production operations.
