Energy Voice – Out Loud
EVOL: Oil and gas is paradoxical, offshore workers’ blues and AI comes to the rescue
Episode notes
Our latest edition of Energy Voice Out Loud looks at a new report from Norwegian firm DNV that finds oil and gas companies are actually feeling optimistic – despite the fact they are still not sure how they will be able to afford transitioning to cleaner sources of energy production.
However offshore the picture is a little more worrisome. Ryan Duff reports on the state of workers’ mental health and how drilling a well can offer some insight into helping them feel better.
Lastly, Mat Perry reports on Scottish technology firm Zelim which has developed unmanned search and rescue technology that is improving outcomes for seafarers. Testing with the US coast guard has found its AI powered detection system is an invaluable took for man overboard incidents, day or night and in all weather.
