How to Achieve Efficiency in asset lifecycle development and operations by digital twin

SPEAKERS

Wassim Ghadban Vice President, Global Innovation & Digital Engineering, Kent

ABOUT THE SESSION

Wassim Ghadban, Vice President of Global Innovation & Digital Engineering at Kent PLC, is a digital pioneer with over two decades of experience transforming global energy businesses through innovative digital strategies. With deep expertise across digital twins, intelligent operation centers, EPC4.0, and business process automation, Wassim has led high-impact projects for industry leaders like ADNOC and Aramco—including the development of the 8D and Maturity Levels concepts for Energy Digital Twin and a successful remote operations initiative. He will share his insights on achieving efficiency in asset lifecycle development and operations through digital twin technology, highlighting its role in driving both sustainability and performance in today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape.

He will share his views on how the shocks of COVID-19, combined with the intensifying push toward a low-carbon future, have compelled Oil & Gas companies to rapidly accelerate their digital agendas. The industry is now under increasing pressure to transform both new and existing plants into smarter, more connected, and sustainable facilities—at a pace never seen before. As net-zero goals become more urgent, efficiency and cost-effectiveness have become critical pillars for success. He will emphasize the strong correlation between operational efficiency and sustainability, highlighting how digital technologies—such as automation, AI, digital twins, and advanced analytics—are key enablers in designing, building, and operating the plant of the future while ensuring long-term resilience and competitiveness.

Key Topics-

1. The shocks of COVID-19 combined with growing momentum to transition to a low carbon future, accelerates the need for Oil & Gas companies to ‘supercharge’ their digital agendas.
 

2. The need to build new and modify existing plants into efficient, connected and sustainable facilities of the future is moving at a faster pace than ever before. In the push to net zero, it is imperative to design, build and operate plants more efficiently and cost-effectively is the new norm.
 

3. There is a direct correlation between efficiency and sustainability.
 

4. Digital solutions are a key enabler to achieve both and deliver the plant of the future
