Digital strategy for oil and gas refining

ADI assessed how sustainability priorities are influencing actual capital allocation across electric utilities, with a focus on transmission, distribution, and grid digitalization. The work drew on utility‑level benchmarks covering decarbonization targets, resilience investments, and governance structures, supplemented by interviews with sustainability and planning leaders. Emphasis was placed on distinguishing aspirational ESG commitments from areas driving […]

ADI structured and led a workshop examining how AI‑driven data center growth translates into power demand, infrastructure strain, and planning risk. Insights were synthesized from utilities, hyperscalers, OEMs, and developers to assess demand magnitude, geographic concentration, and timing relative to transmission and permitting constraints. The analysis framed implications for fuel mix, grid investment sequencing, and […]

ADI built a bottom‑up view of U.S. data center electricity demand driven by AI workloads, using rack density, GPU power consumption, utilization assumptions, and load growth scenarios. These demand estimates were stress‑tested through interviews with utilities, hyperscalers, and power developers to assess grid constraints and timing mismatches. The work linked physical load growth to regional […]

ADI evaluated the total addressable market and outlook over a 10-year period for AI-driven seismic interpretation amidst a shrinking G&G user pool. The study addressed factors impacting the adoption of OSDU and cloud migration among NOCs, majors, and independent operators. Analysis centered on evaluating the trade-off between model-centric and expert-based AI, and geoscientists’ preference globally. […]

ADI performed a strategic assessment of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) adoption within the U.S. gas processing sector to estimate addressable market over a 10-year period. The work mapped critical digital capabilities including cloud mobility, big data analytics, and augmented reality / virtual reality (AR/VR) training against the immediate operational needs of midstream reliability engineers. […]

This assessment by ADI evaluated a fixed, wireless sensor network designed for continuous corrosion monitoring across hazardous upstream, refining, and chemical assets. Analytical modeling incorporated scale-driven reductions to project revenue over a 10-year period. The study surfaced trade-offs between system mobility and the high installation costs of competing fiber optic or electrical resistance probes. The […]

ADI evaluated the total addressable market and outlook over a 10-year period for digital solutions for gas processing. The analysis highlighted a strategic preference for back-office digitalization over field operations, driven by a lack of commercial readiness for wearables and high capex barriers for IoT. ADI mapped these adoption hurdles against process automation partnerships to […]

ADI evaluated the addressable market in the U.S. for enterprise performance management software used to track stream volumes, mass, and composition in midstream systems. The assessment analyzed the shift toward software-as-a-service (SaaS) models and the technical requirements for connectivity with ERP and ETRM/CTRM platforms. This study surfaced the competitive constraints posed by in-house spreadsheet programs […]

ADI assessed a global energy transition capital spend and outlook through 2050, identifying the addressable market for digital technologies. The study analyzed how the shift toward fragmented, low-carbon infrastructure will impact the need for digital integration across intermittent renewables and energy storage systems. Modeling surfaced critical factors that will dictate the pace of digital adoption. […]

This strategic planning support assessed a global reservoir simulation market and outlook over a 10-year period. ADI examined the commoditization of black oil simulators and the competitive pressure from GPU-based cloud computing and data analytics alternatives. The work surfaced critical trade-offs between physics-based accuracy and the speed required by a shrinking reservoir engineering workforce. The […]

ADI evaluated the adoption of predictive analytics and IIoT offerings among independent North American operators. The research identified factors impacting adoption and growth and critical solutions to drive adoption in high-producing assets. The client Venture capital firm The situation Need to discern between re-branded automation products and differentiated, value-added IIoT offerings for investment. ADI’s contributions […]

ADI Analytics conducted a high-level due diligence to support a strategic corporate investor evaluating an investment in an oil and gas analytics software company. The client A strategic corporate investor evaluating acquisition of an oil and gas analytics software provider. The situation The client needed a structured assessment of the target’s offerings, market outlook, competitiveness, […]
