Operational Excellence in the Tank Storage Industry: Introducing Shared Reality

The tank storage industry is no stranger to challenges, from complex site management to the need for precise data to support critical decisions. As operators strive to reduce operational risks, increase profitability, and maintain competitiveness, having a clear and accurate understanding of industrial assets is crucial.

At this year’s StocExpo, Samp is excited to showcase Shared Reality, a proven solution that enables terminal operators, midstream and process industry players to improve their operational excellence, while reducing the complexity of project and asset management.

Using patented artificial intelligence and 3D technology, Shared Reality is an engaging workspace for all teams, deployed in just days. Users have an interactive access to their facilities, linking a 3D reality model of the physical assets captured on site with technical diagrams and equipment data. It helps rapidly understand the site and data integrity.

Boosting Collaboration, Certainty, and Safety

For terminal operators and the tank storage and midstream sector, Shared Reality drives operational excellence by preventing bad surprises on-site, accelerating maintenance work, improving project safety and collaboration. Whether it’s revamping, expansion, or day-to-day routines, the workspace ensures that technical data aligns with the actual site conditions.

Moreover, it serves as a shared gateway where site personnel, engineers and contractors and investment planning teams can collaborate effectively. By allowing everyone to access the most up-to-date data, Shared Reality drives informed decision-making and ensures that all operations are grounded in reality.

Fast track results and seamless integration

At the heart of Shared Reality, is AI-powered equipment recognition that allows to rapidly link the 3D representation of a piece of equipment to its technical data, giving operators a comprehensive overview of their assets.

Shared Reality can be connected with existing data sources (spreadsheets, drawings…) or IT systems (ERP, EAM, CMMS, EDMS, SCADA..), serving as a gateway to naturally retrieve, assess or update vital information.

By deploying Shared Reality in just a few days, terminal operators can reduce projects timelines, cut costs, and eliminate unexpected issues once work begins.

Proven Success Across Industries

Tank farms, terminals, and pipelines operators in the oil and gas sector have already deployed Shared Reality, including companies such as Trapil, SPMR, Elengy, Storengy, Teréga.

The online workspace is also used by other sectors, including industrial gases, chemicals and utilities, where companies like SUEZ and VEOLIA leverage Shared Reality as a key component in their pursuit of operational excellence.

Testimonial

As a pipeline operator and service provider, TRAPIL has always strived to find the best solution to its own issues and those of its clients.

With more than 70 years of operating experience, TRAPIL considers Samp as the right solution to tackle the challenges imposed by legacy infrastructure, where various data is still difficult to aggregate and keep up-to-date.

TRAPIL supports and promotes the partnership between its subsidiary SURVEY and Samp to provide its customers with the most pragmatic digital twin solution.

Join us at StocExpo to discover how Shared Reality can improve your operations, enhance safety, and ensure seamless collaboration across your teams. Let us help you achieve the certainty and confidence you need to stay ahead in this rapidly evolving industry.

What can you expect from a demo with Samp?

Scanning Services

Extend the reach of your scanning services by delivering your scanning campaigns on an AI-powered 3D worspace, designed from the ground up for the industry. Leverage your surveying and topographic expertise to consolidate valuable field data into a single viewer: maps, aerial and drone orthophotos, laser scans, photogrammetry or videogrammetry, and georadar can now be securely viewed, updated and shared in one place.

Engineering services, EPC

Upscale the value of your engineering services offering by delivering digital twin as a service, powered by your qualified staff. Improve customer retention with longer-term contracts that ensure continuous synchronization of technical data with the as-built facility. Accelerate or automate the production of technical deliverables when working on brownfield projects with little or no existing input information.

CONTRACT OPERATORS

When preparing a quote for operating a facility on behalf of the owner, be sure to maximize that short window of time by taking advantage of as much technical information as possible. Turn your initial site visit into a unique opportunity to capture the current condition of the facility. Make a bid that will beat the competition with an already operational digital twin, while giving you increased confidence in your future service contract margins.

OWNER OPERATORS

Whether you manage a single plant or multiple sites, whether your facilities are on-shore or off-shore, we can help you build and maintain a twin within days. Major milestones in a plant’s lifecycle, such as handover from EPC to operator, change of ownership, revamping or decommissioning, provide an opportunity to implement a safer and more efficient way of working with your extended teams, regardless of the quality of your technical data.
