HEXAGON menu SHARE Brownfield Digitalization The aging assets present the industry with a continuous and growing challenge. There is incorrect or missing legacy information, lack of integrity, unsafe situations and inefficient execution of operation and maintenance. Given that a facility may have been in operation for a number of decades, critical information may be incompatible or outdated and this information will most likely be scattered around in unofficial storage locations. Or, this knowledge was lost due to key employees having left your organization. Brownfield assets suffer from handling large volumes of unstructured information. They often do not have 3D models, data warehouses, or integrated operation systems with high-quality structured information. Even if they do, there is always unstructured information in the form of documents and drawings that regularly arrive from suppliers, vendors, and engineering partners. This has a negative impact on the execution of brownfield modifications. The preparation time takes much longer because of gathering and validating the required information. In addition, it is cost-intensive to get a clear as-is picture of the facility before the modification can even be planned and executed.
