Woodside Energy Scales Agentic AI Across Operations with 50 Agents Including LNG Startup Advisor and Predictive Maintenance
English summary
Woodside Energy has deployed around 50 AI agents in production to augment operations across its LNG plants and enterprise workflows. The company leverages years of investment in operational data and predictive analytics, with notable solutions including the Startup Advisor, an AI copilot that guides operators through complex LNG plant startups by analyzing historical data and providing real-time insights, and maintenance intelligence, which recommends optimal maintenance timing and has demonstrated a 15% reduction in maintenance hours over five years on a pilot asset. Woodside follows a 'think big, prototype small, scale fast' approach and maintains strong governance through a structured AI assessment process and an AI council. The company collaborates with Infosys as its managed service provider to support scaling and aims ultimately for an autonomous enterprise where agentic systems deeply interact with core workflows.
