Seagems Optimizes Routines With Automation And Submarine Engineering, Promoting Excellence And Operational Safety With SeaBot And Horus System.
In recent years, mining has been reinventing itself through numerous technological innovations and automation solutions. The focus now is on automation, allowing operations to be significantly optimized. Leading companies are integrating cutting-edge systems to improve efficiency and ensure safety. One of the most impactful advancements is the implementation of intelligent robots that perform complex tasks autonomously, reducing execution time by up to 95%. These innovations provide opportunities for industries to extract resources more sustainably, putting mining on the path to a greener and more efficient future. It is estimated that by 2025, the sector will have radically transformed its practices.
In the context of the mining sector, these automation practices not only optimize operations but also promote worker safety by minimizing exposure to risks. In 2023, companies like Seagems were already standing out for integrating advanced systems into their daily operations, offering evident operational successes. Within the extractive industry, the search for sustainable growth aligns with the global energy transition, which has been discussed at international conferences since 2019. Organizations have been investing more in research and development, such as Seagems, which announced in June 2023 a new digital integration platform. Success depends on leaders capable of navigating this sea of innovations, ensuring that mineral exploration continues to evolve towards a brighter and more responsible future.
Technological Integration: The Landmark Of A New Era In Mining
Recent data from July 2023 shows that integration technology is a driving force behind the advancement of modern mining. Industry giants are forming strategic partnerships to share knowledge and incorporate best practices. This collaboration results in agile solutions, reducing costs and increasing productivity. Thus, competition among companies reaches new levels while improving the utilization of available resources. It is a golden age for those who can combine innovation and pragmatism.

The optimization of operational practices has a direct impact on the economy and the environment. Efficient use of resources and waste minimization are linked to a lower environmental impact, transforming public perception of mining. According to a report from Global Mining Review in March 2023, there is increasing pressure for companies to document their environmental responsibility initiatives. Furthermore, substantial investments are being made to boost the transition to greener energy sources within mining operations.
These changes are closely monitored by governments around the world, which have been revising their legislation since 2022 to keep pace with the rapid evolution of this sector. Stricter regulations require organizations to innovate continuously to remain compliant. Thus, leaders in the mining field manage uncertainties and adapt to changes while guiding their companies towards a “`
Automation Transforms Processes At Seagems
Optimizing the routine of employees (Photo: Seagems) Rio de Janeiro, February 2025 – Seagems, a prominent Brazilian company specializing in providing innovative solutions in submarine engineering, is celebrating the impressive results achieved by TIP, its Technology, Innovation and Performance Department, established in September 2024.
One of the most notable and revolutionary projects was the automation of graphic projections applied in submarine engineering, especially in the representation of flexible pipeline configurations in deep waters. Previously, such a task required an effort of about four hours, but now, thanks to automation, this same process is completed in just ten minutes. This optimization represents a 95% reduction in the time required, made possible by the development of advanced systems that process data and generate new images with a single click.
Innovation Beyond Submarine Engineering
This significant leap in efficiency is the result of a vision adopted by Seagems just over a year ago, known as ‘Adding by Subtracting‘. This philosophy focuses on simplifying processes for the improvement of employee quality of life, which inevitably requires continuous investments in innovation.
To follow this philosophy, Seagems founded TIP, integrating the areas of Information Technology (IT), Systems Control, Planning, and Project Management. TIP has been a driving force behind the significant transformations observed in the company’s daily life. Part of this impact was the revolution in access to information within Seagems, thanks to SeaBot, an innovative artificial intelligence mechanism that automatically answers professionals’ questions about internal documents and procedures.
With SeaBot, accessing relevant information is no longer a time-consuming task. ‘Now, we no longer need to get lost looking for data on the network and in files; just interact with the robot in a chat format to receive immediate answers’, demonstrates Jorge Kort, the Technology Manager at Seagems. Another impactful venture is the Horus system, which uses artificial intelligence to identify and prevent operational risks on the company’s vessels.
Integration And Operational Safety
Although still in development, the Horus system is based on video analytics technology, which uses advanced algorithms to process visual information through a camera system. This system is capable of issuing automatic alerts whenever it detects risk situations in the predetermined areas of each vessel. ‘These solutions reinforce our commitment to both safety and operational excellence’, emphasizes Alexandro Pereira, Lead Operations Engineer.
To enhance employee training, Seagems has been developing a completely immersive virtual environment that simulates operational spaces of the vessels in detail. This environment is not only highly interactive but also allows for the creation of high-fidelity scenarios. The project, a collaboration with Tecgraf Institute of PUC-RJ, aims to overcome challenges that were previously common, such as the difficulty of practically demonstrating activities to new employees.
Exceeding Limits In Employee Training
With interactive simulations and realistic scenarios, we ensure a wider and more efficient reach in training, reducing costs and enhancing the learning experience’, explains Gisele Dias, Operations Engineer at Seagems. Due to its high level of adaptability, the system also proves useful in other areas, facilitating case studies and simulations to support decision-making in operations and safety.
In addition to the improvements provided by TIP to the daily lives of employees, solutions are developed based on what teams at Seagems identify as ‘opportunities for improvement’, focusing on operational excellence and optimizing effort at work. In 2024, Seagems received 282 suggestions from employees about processes that could be improved, making daily activities more agile. Among these proposals, 77 opportunities were identified, 15 processes were mapped, and 35 people were interviewed for a detailed presentation of the ideas.
Technological Boost In Administration
In the administrative environment, for instance, TIP implemented automation solutions for automatic invoicing, reducing the execution time of these tasks by 83% and providing more agility to financial operations. ‘We reduced the time in performing tasks, but we also increased accuracy, which allows for better negotiations with suppliers’, adds Jorge Kort.
According to a PwC survey in 2024, <https://www.pwc.com.br/pt/estudos/preocupacoes-ceos/ceo-survey/2024/27_ceo_survey_24.pdf>, 72% of Brazilian CEOs view technological transformation as a growth catalyst for their companies in the next five years.
The survey highlighted that, especially through artificial intelligence, this disruption is one of the main megatrends challenging business leaders to reinvent themselves. In the next three years, PwC data indicates that 70% of CEOs expect to see an increase in the use of generative AI in their businesses.
Seagems is exploring this technology, which uses pre-existing models to create content and perform automations, aiming to develop innovative solutions in the field of submarine engineering.
