AI‐Inspired Digital Twins for the Oil and Gas Domain

A digital twin is a virtual model of a physical asset. The digital twin functions as a proxy for the physical asset it represents. The name digital twin was coined by John Vickers of NASA in a 2010 roadmap report. The digital twin helps reduce safety issues and hazards and helps prevent any physical intervention in asset maintenance before actually trying it out. A digital needs large amounts of data to help assets conduct predictive maintenance and also implement an ML solution.
