Oil & Gas Case Studies
Powering Smarter, More Efficient Energy Operations
Transforming Oil & Gas Operations with Scalable Data & AI
The energy and oil & gas sector is evolving rapidly, driven by operational complexity, regulatory pressure, workforce demands, and the need for real‑time insight across distributed environments. Spyglass helps organizations modernize legacy systems, unify siloed data, strengthen security, and accelerate AI adoption—empowering teams to optimize assets, improve safety and compliance, reduce downtime, and operate with greater efficiency. Our solutions deliver measurable value from the field to the boardroom, enabling energy companies to stay competitive, sustainable, and future‑ready.
Environmental Compliance With Automated Monitoring
A large oil & gas producer faced mounting pressure to improve emissions tracking and regulatory reporting across multiple facilities. Manual data collection from legacy systems created bottlenecks, inconsistencies, and audit gaps—resulting in delayed reporting and heightened risk of non‑compliance. With environmental requirements evolving quickly, the organization needed a secure, scalable way to monitor emissions and operational metrics in near‑real time. Spyglass built an AI‑enabled compliance intelligence platform that consolidated sensor data, operational logs, and reporting workflows using Microsoft Fabric and Purview governance. Automated detection, classification, and validation streamlined regulatory submissions and reduced manual burden. Key benefits included:
- Faster, more accurate emissions reporting across all operating sites
- Lower compliance risk with automated data lineage, classification, and tracking
- Reduced SME fatigue through automated collection and validation of environmental data
- Scalable monitoring foundation supporting future sustainability initiatives
Optimizing Field Operations With AI
An integrated energy operator struggled with delays in assessing equipment performance across upstream and midstream sites. Manual monitoring of pumps, valves, compressors, and pipeline assets slowed response times, increased safety risks, and made it difficult to predict critical failures. Siloed data from SCADA systems, IoT sensors, and maintenance logs limited the organization’s ability to act on early warning signs, resulting in downtime and higher operational costs. Spyglass deployed a governed AI solution using Microsoft Fabric and advanced analytics to unify streaming and historical data, detect anomalies, and surface maintenance priorities—empowering field teams with real‑time insight and predictive recommendations. Key benefits included:
- Dramatically reduced unplanned downtime with earlier detection of equipment issues
- Improved safety and compliance through real‑time anomaly monitoring
- Lower maintenance costs with more accurate, data‑driven scheduling
- Unified operational visibility across distributed field assets
Unified Energy Data Platform
A global energy company struggled to make timely operational decisions due to fragmented data trapped across on‑prem systems, aging warehouse environments, and proprietary field applications. Analysts and engineers spent significant time assembling datasets, limiting their ability to generate insights that drive efficiency, safety, and optimization. Spyglass modernized the firm’s data estate by building a unified, governed platform leveraging Microsoft Fabric and Databricks—integrating operational, geological, financial, and asset data into a single trusted environment. This foundation enabled advanced analytics, predictive modeling, and AI‑powered workflows that supported both daily operations and long‑term planning. Key benefits included:
- Rapid access to unified, trustworthy data across the enterprise
- Improved operational and financial decision‑making with real‑time insights
- Stronger governance and security posture aligned to Zero Trust principles
- Scalable architecture supporting AI, predictive maintenance, and optimization use cases
- Centralized visibility and reporting across all investigation‑related content
