en.Wedoany.com Reported - Radix CEO João Carlos Chachamovitz stated on the NeoFeed program "Artificial Intelligence Revolution" (Revolução IA) that artificial intelligence, automation, and remote monitoring are opening new operational models for the oil and gas industry: fewer workers will be needed on offshore oil platforms. For decades, oil platforms have been designed to accommodate dozens to hundreds of professionals responsible for operating, inspecting, and maintaining offshore equipment. Chachamovitz noted that the company is advancing a project aimed at achieving unmanned operations on platforms.

Reducing platform personnel means lower infrastructure requirements and reduced exposure of workers to high-risk environments. However, Chachamovitz emphasized that adopting artificial intelligence in critical industrial operations requires a level of reliability far higher than that of consumer-facing applications. Users can repeat questions when ChatGPT makes errors, but in a refinery, exceeding a temperature threshold could trigger an explosion or fire, leaving almost no room for error.

Founded 16 years ago, Radix is not only involved in the oil and gas industry but has also expanded into mining, pulp and paper, and other sectors, establishing a global presence. Due to the high complexity of industrial environments, AI projects typically involve long-term collaboration and rigorous validation processes. Once successful, operational efficiency improves significantly, yielding substantial economic benefits. For example, at a paper mill, Radix reduced paper break frequency by 60% through its technical solutions.

Another case involves implementing AI solutions on subway lines in São Paulo and parts of the United States, continuously monitoring critical equipment such as motors, doors, and air conditioning systems to detect faults early and prevent service disruptions. Chachamovitz stated that the biggest cost is not the repair itself, but the losses caused by asset downtime.
