Artificial intelligence isn't replacing engineers—it's helping them work smarter and safer.
At ExxonMobil's upstream facilities in northern Canada, InFlightAI powered by Levatas is working alongside Boston Dynamics Spot robots to automate routine asset inspections in some of the world's harshest operating environments. By taking on repetitive inspection tasks, the solution allows engineering teams to spend less time collecting data and more time solving problems.
Automating Routine Inspections
Spot robots equipped with InFlightAI's computer vision models autonomously inspect critical assets by:
- Reading analog gauges and digital meters
- Monitoring sight glass liquid levels
- Verifying valve positions
- Detecting spills and leaks
Instead of simply capturing images, the AI interprets what it sees and delivers actionable inspection data to engineers.
Helping Engineers Focus on What Matters
Routine inspection rounds are essential but often involve repetitive work in remote, hazardous environments. By automating these tasks, organizations can improve inspection frequency while reducing unnecessary exposure to harsh conditions.
The result isn't fewer engineers, it's more effective engineers. AI handles the repetitive observations, while experienced personnel focus on maintenance decisions, troubleshooting, and improving asset reliability.
Building Safer, More Efficient Operations
Automated inspections help organizations:
- Improve worker safety
- Increase inspection consistency
- Detect issues earlier
- Reduce operating costs
- Improve overall asset reliability
This is the future of industrial inspections: autonomous robots and AI working alongside human experts to keep critical infrastructure running safely and efficiently.
