Lighthouse Platform Transforms Asset Management in FPSOs

Shape Digital, an innovative company in the digital services sector for industrial plants, has expanded the application of its digital platform Lighthouse in two important FPSOs (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) operated by Petrobras in Brazil. Lighthouse, focused on Intelligent Asset Management, is designed to improve reliability, optimize maintenance costs, enhance productive efficiency, reduce risks, and decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The platform has the remarkable ability to detect early signs of equipment deterioration and abnormalities in processes.

The FPSO Almirante Barroso MV32, one of the largest in Brazil located in the Búzios field in the Santos Basin, can process up to 150,000 barrels of crude oil per day and 6 million cubic meters of gas. The Anita Garibaldi MV33, capable of processing 80,000 barrels of oil and 7 million m³ of gas per day, is also equipped with Lighthouse technology. Both vessels will benefit from the platform’s ability to centralize, organize, and contextualize data, controlling process variables, maintenance, off-line inspections, complete alarm history, and asset integrity management.

Transformative Impact of Lighthouse on FPSO Operations

Felipe Baldissera, VP of Energy at Shape Digital, highlights the effectiveness of Lighthouse in generating significant results for the plants through advanced data use. The implementation of the platform in 2023 resulted in a reduction of over 15% in production downtime for the connected units. This not only contributed to lower maintenance costs but also promoted greater operational safety and increased oil and gas production. Currently, the fleet equipped with Lighthouse represents over 25% of national production, demonstrating the substantial impact of the platform on operational efficiency and environmental sustainability.

While an average building in London or New York takes three years to be completed, in China a 26-story tower went up in five days with about 100 workers, and the global modular construction market already moves US$ 95 billion per year.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

Australia installs giant concrete structures on the seabed 800 meters from the shore to create an ocean intake for desalination that will draw in saltwater and produce 30 million liters of drinking water per day.

A public school student single-handedly created a machine capable of treating water for up to 50 people using only solar energy. It was awarded third place at one of the most important science fairs in the world.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

While communities suffer from water scarcity and the advancing desert, women in Morocco use nets high up in the mountains to trap fog droplets, fill reservoirs, and transport drinking water through more than 10 km of piping.

Port of Rio receives the first 366-meter ship after a R$ 163 million dredging in the access channel of Guanabara Bay

Basalt-based cement can cut up to 80% of CO2 emissions in global construction, according to a study by UC Santa Barbara.

Mystery of the Mary Celeste, the ghost ship of 1872, may finally have been unraveled by science with a new chemical hypothesis

Cold front advances to the South of Brazil this Sunday with up to 150 mm of rain and a new polar mass drops temperature in three states

Macaúba has ceased to be a pest in the cerrado and has become a billion-dollar bet to supply planes and trucks, with Mubadala eyeing R$ 15 billion, vegetable oil, degraded lands, and sustainable fuel that still depends on future commercial-scale harvesting.
