Description
The Intelligent Systems Team is a part of Saudi Aramco’s Research and Development Department and is one of three research groups that are based at KAUST in the innovation cluster. The team was formed in 2012 to develop Intelligent Systems (such as robotics) to address challenges within the company, primarily related to mitigating the impact of corrosion on company assets. In the last 5 years, the team has designed and developed 4 robotic technologies including inspection robots for elevated pipes, tanks, and underwater assets as well as dust mitigation technology that has now been licensed to NOMADD in a KAUST-centered collaborative effort. The team focuses on rapid technology development and benefits from the KAUST ecosystem to design and assemble high-tech solutions within the Kingdom.
During this 1-hour workshop
During this presentation and visit to the Intelligent Systems lab, you will have the chance to learn about the projects developed by the Intelligent Systems Team and learn more about what it is like to work on a development-focused robotics team in Saudi Aramco. The presentation, lab visit and post-visit discussion will be designed to give you an inside look at the team’s work and daily operations while providing an opportunity to learn more about this exciting field of engineering and development.
