The status of Kongsberg Digital as the forerunner of digital transformation within the oil and gas sector has been recognised with three awards at the 2020 Digital Oil & Gas Asia Summit (DOA 2020) held in Beijing, China. The company collected the Best Digital Transformation Award, Digital Twin Innovative Service Excellence Award, and Top Leadership of O&G Industrial Digitalization Award as acknowledgment of the impact that its digital solutions have had in improving efficiency, reducing costs, and managing risk within the sector.

“We are honoured that our expertise in the development and adoption of cutting-edge technologies for the oil and gas industry has been recognised by the award organisers, China Decision Makers Consultancy (CDMC),” Hege Skryseth, President of Kongsberg Digital, said. “These awards are a testament of our ability to increase operational optimisation and value creation through broad and deep digitalisation of their assets and processes. Kongsberg Digital will proudly continue to invest in deep industrial solutions that turn digital value creation into reality.”

Parent company, KONGSBERG, established the specialised subsidiary of Kongsberg Digital four years ago to deliver digital transformation projects in multiple industries by 2020 and is the group-wide centre of digital expertise. The company’s Dynamic Digital Twin, Kognitwin Energy, is changing the approach of oil and gas operators to the design, build, operation and maintenance of their assets. It makes the production and maintenance teams more efficient and allows them to collaborate with local and global colleagues better.
