McDermott leverages AI to save valuable engineering hours with user-friendly VIKTOR apps

Digital initiatives such as cloud-based Digital Twins and Artificial Intelligence are vital to improving internal engineering processes in the international Engineering and Construction firm McDermott. According to Mina Ya-alimadad, AI Projects Manager & Academia Partnership Lead at McDermott, the vision of the AI team at McDermott is to develop AI-based products to automate repetitive engineering tasks. In order to host their in-house applications they started using VIKTOR at the end of last year, including a web app referred to as ReCo tool that uses image recognition to identify mistakes in Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs).
