Interview: Harnessing Gen AI for Workflow and Maintenance Optimization

Interview: Harnessing Gen AI for Workflow and Maintenance Optimization

An IBM study stated that about 74% of energy and utility companies globally are either implementing or exploring AI, with the majority intending to leverage it to improve operational efficiency. Generative AI (Gen AI) enables the industry to dig deeper into its data and extract valuable insights in a faster, easier, more accessible way.

Ahead of our upcoming AI in Energy Summit this February 24-25, 2025, we sat down with event speaker Partha Chatterjee, Principal, Data Analysis at Shell to better understand how to improve operational efficiency through AI.

Read as Partha reveals practical strategies and lessons learned for operators looking to leverage Gen AI for real-time decision-making, with a vision for using Gen AI tools to streamline complex workflows.

Key takeaways include:

  • Implementing Gen AI in operational settings and how it shapes digital strategies
  • Key considerations when training Gen AI in industrial settings
  • What ROI to expect from incorporating AI or Gen AI within operations
