Act on Energy - Episode two

In this episode of our Act on Energy podcast, Tim Eyles, VP at Acteon, alongside Christopher Hillier, Head of Sales and Commercial and Greg Hammond, EA Digital Lead at UTEC, Acteon’s Geo-services business line, explore how offshore operators can extract more value from the vast amounts of survey and inspection data collected in the field and how good data structure lays the foundations for smarter, faster decision-making, including future AI applications.  

From seabed imaging to multibeam scans, offshore projects generate huge datasets, yet much of that information remains difficult to access, buried in reports or isolated on hard drives.

In this episode, they discuss: 

• When data management should be considered in the project lifecycle
• Why accessibility is as important as accuracy
• How digital visualisation helps offshore teams make quicker, more informed decisions
• The growing role of AI and why it can only deliver value if the data foundations are in place
• The cost of resurveying due to lost or siloed data and how to avoid it

Each episode is hosted by a range of voices from across our global teams, offering first-hand insights into how we harness data, engineering knowledge, and operational expertise to deliver maximum economic value across the full lifecycle of offshore infrastructure.

From the design and installation of new assets, to extending operational life and safe decommissioning, Act on Energy covers the breadth of offshore energy, from renewables to oil & gas, in some of the world’s most challenging environments. 

Guided by our core principles - integrity, teamwork, partnership, care, and accountability, we share stories and solutions that help our customers reduce costs, accelerate schedules, and deliver the energy the world needs, safely and sustainably.
