It wasn ’ t that long ago that you ’ d have struggled to read offshore and digital in the same sentence – there was plenty of water between the energy and technology sectors .

But , with the wind now firmly behind renewables and technology ’ s ever-growing importance , there has been a widespread commercial realisation of their interdependence . Digital and data hold the key to generating efficiencies and spurring us towards net-zero goals .

The Offshore Energy Data Strategy Taskforce recently set out seven key recommendations that will enable the digitalisation of offshore energy – spanning oil , gas , and renewables – and create conditions for better data sharing and digitalisation initiatives . Essentially , it takes a more proactive approach to data sharing , but it ’ s important the commitment to collaboration grows .

As such , every operator and supplier must embrace the recommendations and support cross-sector digitalisation . The future of the industry , and our economic and environmental prosperity , may very well depend on it .
