Clarity represents a transformative leap in digitalisation, marking a significant advancement in the management of assets, particularly for operators in the tank storage sector. This innovative platform addresses the longstanding challenges of fragmented information systems by offering a unified, comprehensive view of all relevant data, thereby streamlining operations and enhancing decision-making processes.
The key features of Clarity include:
1. 3D Reality Model (3DRM): A photorealistic digital twin of the entire facility, offering detailed visualisations of components for enhanced operational insight.
2. Clarity Capture App: A mobile application utilising advanced AI to update the 3DRM, ensuring the digital twin remains current.
3. Contextualised Asset Data: Linking detailed specifications, documents, and procedures to assets for intuitive information access.
4. Smart P&ID: Integration of P&IDs with the 3DRM for efficient component location and identification.
5. Smart Workflows: Tagging of operational and maintenance activities in the 3D model, standardising procedures, and integrating permit and isolation management.
6. Connected Workforce: An Augmented Reality (AR) enabled mobile app that visualises equipment data and workflows in an AR context, facilitating immersive interaction.
The benefits Clarity brings to the tank storage sector are multifaceted, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and strategic decision-making. It ensures business continuity by centralising and contextualising relevant information in 3D, allowing for quicker, more informed decisions. It also improves safety with virtual inspections, and transforms tacit knowledge into explicit, aiding in proactive maintenance to minimise downtime. By streamlining data access and enabling real-time, error-free updates, Clarity reduces costs and enhances collaboration for crisis management. It also decreases work errors and enhances safety standards, benefiting all, especially new staff.
