Study reveals the tech challenges of the energy sector

Under the auspices of the memorandum, INPEX and MHI plan to jointly establish a working committee and address technological solutions including utilising the Internet of Things (IoT) and robot technology to further optimise oil and gas production operations.

INPEX aims to sustainably grow its oil and natural gas development business while developing and evolving into an integrated energy company by contributing to the stable supply of energy with a focus on natural gas to a wide range of communities.

MHI will aim to cultivate the energy market with a focus on the global oil and gas industries by effectively combining its wide range of technologies in the fields of energy and the environment, starting with its advanced technology applicable to gas turbines.

The conclusion of the memorandum results from converging the aims of the two companies. Going forward, INPEX and MHI will strive to create business models and opportunities through the joint study that transcend conventional frameworks.
