Collaborate with experts worldwide
The problem
Utility work is a niche business. Though your staff are experts in their own right, it's often necessary to call in outside specialists to help with repairs and training.
However, this presents several problems. The industry is as global as it gets, so experts might be located thousands of miles away. Plus, your frontline workers may well work in hostile or hard-to-reach environments. Flying in specialist help can be a financial burden and a logistical nightmare.
The solution
Make remote collaboration work for everyone. Using assisted reality technology, experts can conduct video calls directly with frontline staff.
Your technicians wear lightweight video headsets, allowing experts to assess issues as if they were seeing them with their own eyes. And with real-time voice and collaboration tools, there's no room for miscommunication. Just like that, the problem's solved – no hefty travel costs required.
Expertise from any location
Transform remote collaboration by bringing expertise to the frontline.
Effortless communication
Communicate more effectively than ever with call recording and annotation tools.
Technical assistance
Break down technical barriers – experts can dial in from any smartphone, tablet or PC.
Empower staff
Empower staff with powerful wearable devices designed for industrial use.
Access vital information, anywhere
The problem
Many utility firms rely on pen and paper for reporting and reference. However, this is slow, cumbersome and insecure. Without instant access to essential information, workers are more likely to make mistakes and form bad habits. And while expert supervision can help, employing on-site mentors is not always feasible.
The solution
Bring wearable computer technology to the frontline. Equipped with assisted reality glasses, workers enjoy instant access to schematics, training documents and industrial IoT data. And with video capture and voice recording functionality, it's easy to capture data for reporting purposes.
Our technology can allow for remote mentoring too. Support and training can be delivered via voice and video link, so one off-site expert can monitor dozens of colleagues or even multiple sites.
Reduce downtime
Reduce downtime – make documentation and reporting tools accessible by everyone.
Remote mentoring
Make the most of available staff with seamless remote mentoring.
Transform training
Transform training into an on-demand resource and reduce costly mistakes.
Safety conscious
Maintain safety standards with easy-to-wear, distraction-free devices.
Deliver realistic, risk-free training scenarios
The problem
Oil and gas sites are full of potential hazards. To guarantee safety, workers require in-depth training to prepare them for the realities of life on the frontline.
However, classroom learning can only go so far – staff need to experience real-world scenarios to gain vital situational awareness and disaster management skills. This means flying workers out for on-site training, which comes at a great financial cost and presents its own safety risks.
The solution
Deliver powerful, realistic training scenarios in the classroom. Our augmented (or mixed) reality headsets allow virtual elements to co-exist seamlessly with the real world.
This means trainees can experience lifelike simulations that would be too risky – or downright impossible – to recreate on site. And because no travel is necessary, you'll save money and time too.
Scenario recreation
Recreate any on-site scenario, from equipment repair to disaster response.
Improve training
Make the training process more engaging and help build cooperation skills.
Equip your team
Equip staff for challenging environments without risk or financial outlay.
Simulations
Challenge trainees by adjusting simulations on the fly.

We know that safety is your primary concern. That's why our range of extended reality (XR) technology is built to meet the demands and rigours of frontline work.
Explore our product range to discover a raft of assisted and augmented reality devices, chosen for their resilience, ergonomics and distraction-free productivity potential.
Assisted reality (aR) headsets are like portable, wearable computers. They let staff access critical data, take photographs and conduct PoV video calls with colleagues around the globe. Augmented reality (AR) glasses mix virtual and real-world elements, so are ideal for delivering lifelike training simulations, or helping visualise complex projects like offshore terrain analyses.

How assisted and virtual reality is transforming the oil and gas industry
Our technology is bringing oil and gas workers together.
The utility industry is unique. No other sector needs workers to be so keenly specialised and so widely distributed.
It should come as no surprise that extended reality technologies are enjoying widespread adoption. Not only do they empower workers to collaborate with colleagues across the globe, but they make knowledge sharing simpler and more seamless than ever.
Companies like BP, Chevron and ExxonMobil¹ are already using XR to invigorate their training programs and improve employee communication. Join them and discover a new frontier of remote collaboration.
