Ignite Talks unwraps net-zero pledges with 17,000 industrial leaders

 In one of the first in-person industry events since COVID-19, international leaders from across asset-heavy industries took to the stage in Oslo, Norway, on Sept. 21, to present how they are working toward net zero or net negative and the investments they’re making in technology, ESG solutions, and workforce transformation. Set to a backdrop of industrial images juxtaposed with glimpses of majestic nature, the industrial technology and digitalization conference provided a blunt reminder of the world that these net-zero pledges are trying to protect. [Editor’s note: All of these sessions, plus dozens of other Ignite Talks, are available on-demand now.]  First on stage was Aker CEO and Cognite Chair Øvyind Eriksen, who opened with a rallying cry:“You’ve made the [net-zero] pledge, but there are only 10,000 days to go,” Eriksen said. “It’s time to discuss the hard issues about what it will take. He added that addressing the challenges “head-on” is what Ignite is all about. In its fourth

Using, managing, improving and creating CV models for robotics, through Cognite Data Fusion

My name is Sigrid Schaanning, and I have written this post together with Atussa Koushan. We both work as Software Engineers in Cognite’s Disruptive-MVP team, which focuses on robotics and computer vision. In this post, we will look further into how to develop a computer vision model, from gathering data to deploying the model on a robot. First, let’s set the scene for what we are trying to achieve in this post.Imagine performing routine inspections at an industrial facility or an oil platform. You might have to read and note down the values of multiple gauges three times a day - every single day. Or, you might have to inspect different parts of the facility to check for corrosion or wear damage.Routine inspections could be tedious and repetitive work, and it might take place in surroundings which are dangerous to humans.Robots, on the other hand, have no perception of tedious work and they could also operate in hostile environments. Robots, together with computer vision, constitute a p

Let's get introduced!

Hi Community Friends! We thought it might be nice to know who’s who, while we’re actively engaging in our community. I’ll start! My name is Anita, and I’m your Community Director. I joined Cognite in September 2020, and jumped right on the mission of establishing Cognite’s customer community. I’ve worked in a variety of industries, and am passionate about working at the crossroads of sustainable business development and digital transformation. I live in Lommedalen, Norway (translated “the Pocket Valley”), where we have long winters with deep snow. I love horseback riding (Islandic horses in particular), and I have a passion for Italian wine and food.Here’s a fun fact: my grandfather’s brother, who was raised in the remote mountains of Hallingdal in Norway, worked as a chemist with Thomas Alva Edison. The letters he wrote home made me realize from early on that no matter your background, you can change the world. I’m super excited to facilitate for all of you to meet, discuss and learn

Succeeding with your first deployment of autonomous inspection robots

One of the main objectives of the first deployment with an inspection robot is getting your organization ready for robotics. A properly scoped deployment will contribute to engaging the field workers and provide insights on what it takes to keep robots operational on a day-to-day basis. This will lay the foundation for high return on investment for all the following deployments. If the scoping fails, there is a risk of losing trust in robots and gaining less willingness to change in your organization. But fear not. In this post, we’re summarizing our best practices when assisting our customers to scope out their first deployment of an inspection robot.    Selecting the appropriate area of deployment It is common that there is a need to deploy robots in harmful or remote environments. These can be areas that may be highly corrosive, have a risk of explosive gases, have powerful magnetic fields, radiation from heat or nuclear etc. When selecting the appropriate robot for a plant, we reco

How do you get data out of a 50 year old control system?

The majority of the hydropower fleet is pretty old. It’s not uncommon to see a 100-year-old power plant still in operation. While it may be a great piece of engineering, how can you access operational data on your laptop or smartphone? After all, you may not want to travel every day to very remote locations. At Ringerikskraft’s Hønefoss II power station in Norway, we installed a set of cameras to passively record alarm events, read gauges, and stream this information to Cognite Data Fusion. It is all connected, so if an alarm goes off, I get an SMS notification and can quickly look up what is happening. Pretty cool, or what? I would like to hear your thoughts. How have you tackled the challenge of digitalizing aging infrastructure?Read the full story

We've released the first-of-its-kind Industrial DataOps Book!

Did you know that only one in four industrial organizations extract value from their data? The lack of tools and processes to connect, contextualize, and govern the data often stand in the way of industrial digitalization.   Industrial DataOps is a powerful new way of deploying data and technology to transform an industrial organization. It makes sense of, manages, and extracts value from complex industrial data. And it is is already becoming a driving force in industrial transformations, helping accelerate digital maturity, enabling data teams to deliver more digital products, and realizing more operational value at scale. In a 2020 survey of global companies, McKinsey found organizations that embedded DataOps could see the volume of new features increase by 50 percent because data automation enables quicker development iterations. At Cognite, we’ve released the first-of-its-kind Industrial DataOps book - a guide packed with insights, industry expertise and practical advice on how you

Neptune Energy: How the pilot enabled collaborative environment in digital well planning

Hi, my name is Kine Årdal, and I have the privilege of being the Customer success manager for Neptune Energy. I’d like to share experiences from our latest project, and hoping to get feedback and hear about similar experiences from you in the community. The project kicked off in April, as a12-weeks proof of concept, where we enabled a collaborative environment with seamless data flow of key well data for well planning.Current workflow: In the current well planning workflow, it is challenging to share data efficiently and reliably across disciplines and collaboration partners. There is no central storage of drilling and well data ready for a digital way of working, and data is often stored in silos. In addition, the collaboration with vendors often relies on manual exports/imports, sharing data on e-mails/ftp, which leads to e.g. unnecessary time spent waiting for data, duplication of data and a challenge to keep track of versions.Result: In this project, the initial Neptune well data m

Think Beyond Data Lakes: Data Products and Data Value Measurement

There are two discomforting truths within digital transformation across our key industries; energy, utilities, and manufacturing.Digitalization PoCs are commonplace. Real ROI isn’t. Billions are invested in cloud data warehouses and data lakes. Most data ends there, unused by anyone for anything.At the heart of this data-driven value dilemma lies a confluence of challenges, ranging from the technical (How can we best organize our diverse and fluid data universe?) to the operational (How can we create new information products and services?), to the financial (How can we treat data as an asset?), to the human (How can we improve data literacy and ensure digital solution adoption in the field?).Read also: DataOps: A transformative new approach to data ROITo avoid boiling the ocean, we will focus on what is perhaps the most fundamental question all fellow Chief Data Officers and other digitalisation executives need to consider as their Northstar — and in doing so, we will find ourselves on

‘DataOps is what we do, but it’s not what we call it’

Most people are talking about DataOps as if it’s an idea that emerged in the last 5 to 10 years. But according to Rolf Thu, it’s something Aarbakke, a world-leading mechanical solutions supplier to the oil and gas industry, has been thinking about since the early 2000s. Thu says what’s today known as DataOps has been long in the making — people just didn’t know what to call it. For Aarbakke, it’s been a steady evolution, introducing digital solutions step by step over the years until the company emerged as the “smart factory” it sees itself as today.“I joined Aarbakke in 1989, and the theme throughout my career has been learning,” Thu said. “And what we’re doing now with data is also about learning. We are learning from best practices, we are increasing the competence of our employees, and we are constantly seeking improvements for our factory through better and smarter uses of data.”Can you explain more about how you use the data to achieve more at Aarbakke?RT: With the powerful data

What does it take to succeed with data science and analytics in power trading?

For many operators, power trading remains more of an art than a science that still relies heavily on heuristics and trader intuition. But as markets evolve and deviate from historical patterns, the tools and methods to make smarter trades must adapt in order to maintain or grow profitability and become a sustainable source of competitive advantage.In this webinar, we talk about our experience of integrating data science into forecasting and trading analysis, and how we used Cognite Data Fusion to enable analysts and traders to work iteratively in a data science process across a range of analytical topics within the trading domain. Check it out and leave your comments below!

DataOps: A transformative new approach to data ROI

If there is one technology trend aside “AI” that is set to define the 2020s, it is “Ops”. From DevOps to DataOps to MLOps, focus is rightfully put on end-to-end operationalization rather than initial code, data or algorithm development alone. Why does your organization need DataOps?According to Gartner, “DataOps is a collaborative data management practice focused on improving the communication, integration and automation of data flows between data managers and data consumers across an organization”. Forrester defines DataOps as “the ability to enable solutions, develop data products, and activate data for business value across all technology tiers from infrastructure to experience”. Ultimately, DataOps aims for predictable data delivery and change management, using technology to automate, orchestrate, and operationalize data use and value dynamically.  With DataOps, you reduce specialized roles in your data-to-value workflows and enable higher data consumer autonomy and empowerment, th

‘You can't be green if your bottom line is red’: How Lervik wants AI to transform the business of energyUpstream

When John Markus Lervik co-founded the industrial artificial intelligence company Cognite with Norwegian conglomerate Aker ASA in 2016, the companies set out to solve what they believed was an industrial data problem. Now the Cognite chief executive believes AI is thesolution to the larger issues of industrial transformation and a profitable energy transition. As Lervik told an online audience at the CeraWeek by IHS Markit conference in March: “Digital can make sustainability profitable by enabling cost cuts, improving efficiency and reducing environmental footprint — all at the same time — and in most cases, it comes hand-in-hand.” The energy industry is on the precipice of great change. The digital transformation that was under way is experiencing a Covid-19-induced acceleration and a growing push to transition towards sustainable fuel sources like wind, solar, and hydrogen. As a technology entrepreneur, Lervik naturally sees digital as the answer to the many intersecting challenges
