Honeywell is introducing new artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled solutions designed to help employees work smarter, make systems more efficient, and allow plant operations to accelerate the path to autonomy. By combining decades of industry knowledge and deep domain data with the latest AI technologies, including Honeywell Forge, Honeywell is infusing AI into both new and existing solutions. This provides companies with an end-to-end AI experience for the worker in the field, the process operator in the control room, and executives at an enterprise level.
Today's energy industry faces several challenges, including a widespread shortage of skilled talent to run facilities and a need to enhance efficiency while maintaining accuracy and quality. To address these challenges, Honeywell's AI solutions can help enhance decision-making speed, operational efficiency, and workforce productivity while also upskilling the workforce through enhanced training. To further expand the solutions available for the energy sector, Honeywell also announced a partnership with Chevron to develop additional advanced AI-enabled solutions focused on enhancing refining operations.
Honeywell's new AI capabilities include the Experion Operations Assistant, which integrates explainable AI into the industrial process to help operators identify production issues and offer step-by-step guidance to address the issue. With an Experion Operations Assistant running alongside plant operators, companies can optimize operations, and less experienced operators can build new expertise more quickly by gaining access to the decades of industry knowledge within their company.
