Case Study: Advancing Gen AI-Enabled Asset Reliability at Dow

Case Study: Advancing Gen AI-Enabled Asset Reliability at Dow

Asset reliability is a critical key performance indicator in any asset-driven business. An IBM study revealed that hybrid AI/ML models, combined with generative AI, can enable operational teams to prioritize and reduce serial failures by 25%–50% while increasing site reliability by 10%–15%.

Dow Chemical Company is currently leveraging GenAI capabilities to automatically extract key failure information that enables the analysis of reliability metrics from multiple sources and sites, including both structured and unstructured data.

Featuring exclusive insights from Technical Leaders and Executives at Dow, download the case study to:

  • Learn how Gen AI can address operational challenges such as improving data quality and streamlining processes in asset-driven industries
  • Understand how Dow is leveraging AI to extract, clean, and analyze maintenance data
  • Learn how new AI tools can complement rather than replace existing systems, ensuring continuity while enhancing capabilities and resource optimization
Interview: Harnessing Gen AI for Workflow and Maintenance Optimization

Interview: Harnessing Gen AI for Workflow and Maintenance Optimization

An IBM study stated that about 74% of energy and utility companies globally are either implementing or exploring AI, with the majority intending to leverage it to improve operational efficiency. Generative AI (Gen AI) enables the industry to dig deeper into its data and extract valuable insights in a faster, easier, more accessible way.

Ahead of the AI in Energy Summit this past February, we sat down with event speaker Partha Chatterjee, Principal, Data Analysis at Shell to better understand how to improve operational efficiency through AI.

Read as Partha reveals practical strategies and lessons learned for operators looking to leverage Gen AI for real-time decision-making, with a vision for using Gen AI tools to streamline complex workflows.

Key takeaways include:

  • Implementing Gen AI in operational settings and how it shapes digital strategies
  • Key considerations when training Gen AI in industrial settings
  • What ROI to expect from incorporating AI or Gen AI within operations
