Conference Objectives
The conference will have two main objectives to outreach. It will discuss the impact of transition to Fourth Industrial Revolution on Ecosystem,
Infrastructure, Efficiency and Competitiveness of industrial operation in general. We will investigate the macro needs to adapt smart operation
in terms of changing connectivity, education and business practices. Also, we will explore the impact of Augmented Reality, Robotics, IOT
and Artificial intelligence on value chain support and optimization.
The second objective will investigate operational changes of Industry 4.0 on certain industries and how Oil Industry is emerging into smart
operation in terms of monitoring and controlling data. Large seismic data combined with innovative analytic system have improved exploration
efficiency. Data set analysis and sensing have improved drilling safety, equipment failures, geological information and accuracy. Augmented
Reality is helping training and enhancing practical experience. In this conference, we will explore more involvements of innovative technologies
that are positively changing exploration, oil production and refining industries.
The conference will discuss how Power Industries can be changed. Power generation will shift gradually from supplier to consumer, it will
enhance maintenance management and real time performance. Also, it will optimize asset utilization and integrate lifecycle. Artificial
intelligence will provide decision support system and give better predictive analysis and 3D printing will emerge as new source of
spare parts that manufactures need to explore.
This conference will identify solutions to improve Logistics Industries efficiency (filling returned empty containers, reduce
fuel consumption, optimize labor intensive handling).
During this conference we will analyze the smart methods of monitoring and operating engineering activities,
examines how Industry 4.0 will improve its resource planning (ERP), estimation, market place and analysis. The
conference will also explore the engineering practices and methods to enhance management of design,
scheduling, procurement, quality, control, documentation and safety by utilizing industry 4.0.
The conference will share upstream and downstream experiences of applying Industry 4.0 on metal
industries and will discuss impacts of automation, robotics and smart sensing on improving
production and accuracy. Also, discuss on how digital system is enabling workers to communicate,
share experience and develop skills. During this event, there will be discussions on how to
increase control, safety, security by integrating system smartly and also investigate how
artificial intelligence and data analysis will improve decisions of outsourcing, operation
efficiency.
