“…The vessels involved in the offshore E & P SC to complete these activities are major contributors to CO 2 emissions in the offshore E & P industry [1] and most sustainable initiatives in this context are linked to the reduction of CO 2 emission from the vessels utilized in transportation, optimal vessel and route allocation, vessel fuel usage, and route optimization for transportation [14,63,64]. Lately, the adoption of technology for this purpose has been widely discussed, such as the implementation of 3D printing of spare parts for local supply to avoid transportation; and the adoption of Blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), and digital twins for supply chain transparency [19,65,66]. For vessel and deck space optimization, the adoption of big data analytics and machine learning/artificial intelligence has been widely discussed [67][68][69].…”

Oil and gas offshore exploration and production (E & P) will remain necessary to meet increasing global energy demands. However, appraising and exploring these resources has a major impact on sustainability and faces many challenges. Improving the supply chain operations that support E&P activities presents opportunities to contribute to the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but relies on organizations being able to adopt new strategies and technology and, innovate their current business models. Business model innovation (BMI) has not been actively pursued in this industry, partially due to the traditional operation management and due to the complexity in changing established models or adopting full-fledged archetypes. Thus, the present study proposes a more flexible and granular approach to BMI by defining elements to be adopted rather than proposing business models archetypes. To define the elements, an application of systems engineering (SE) is adopted through a morphological analysis (MA). They are presented in morphological boxes in three dimensions—technology, organization, and the human element—inspired by sustainable business model (SBM) literature. The elements are proposed as “bricks” for BMI where they can be adopted and re-arranged as necessary, providing granularity and flexibility to facilitate BMI for organizations of varying sizes.

“…Flexible robots arms are typically immobilized and located at fixed locations of the O&G facility. In addition to robotic systems, it is possible to deploy wireless sensor network to continually gather integrity data of an O&G facility [123]. However, installation and maintenance of such sensor network increases the operation cost of the facility.…”

Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) represent an evolving technology with enormous potential to revolutionize the oil and gas industry by providing a more efficient, fast, safe, and cost-effective way to perform a variety of field activities. Recently, UAS has received considerable attention from the oil and gas industry. The objective of this review article is to highlight the usability of UAS for the oil and gas industry, focussing mainly on UAS applications and the opportunities and challenges of UAS deployment in such oil and gas applications. Additionally, this paper also covers the available sensory systems for UAS and provides some recommendations to select a UAS for a given oil and gas application.

“…Most terrestrial WSNs adopt two-dimensional (2D) sensor deployment models, and little attention has been paid to threedimensional (3D) sensor deployment models. In recent years, there has been an increase in the WSN application in 3D real-world scenarios due to the development of related technologies and the urgent demands of various industries, such as military monitoring, industrial area monitoring, air pollution monitoring, alpine and underwater monitoring, and emergency response and disaster relief [2][3][4][5][6].…”

Lattice‐Based 3‐Dimensional Wireless Sensor Deployment

With the wide application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in real space, there are numerous studies on 3D sensor deployments. In this paper, the k -connectivity theoretical model of fixed and random nodes in regular lattice-based deployment was proposed to study the coverage and connectivity of sensor networks with regular lattice in 3D space. The full connectivity range and cost of the deployment with sensor nodes fixed in the centers of four regular lattices were quantitatively analyzed. The optimal single lattice coverage model and the ratio of the communication range to the sensing range r c / r s were investigated when the deployment of random nodes satisfied the k -connectivity requirements for full coverage. In addition, based on the actual sensing model, the coverage, communication link quality, and reliability of different lattice-based deployment models were determined in this study.
