Hess Corporation Field Trial
MFE Inspection Solutions supported Hess Corporation with their deployment of the advanced quadruped mobile robot “Spot” on the Stampede Platform offshore Gulf of Mexico to collect high-quality data. The field trial proved Hess could leverage the fully autonomous robot to perform daily inspections. In addition, Spot is used to explore a range of artificial intelligence applications collecting reliable, repeatable data. Hess is currently creating an autonomous, self-optimizing oil field, leveraging multiple technologies to increase efficiency, improve reliability and reduce environmental impact.
