Yes, Bentley provides a comprehensive portfolio for the entire oil and gas sector. Applications like OpenPlant and AutoPIPE are industry standards for onshore plant design and pipe stress analysis. For offshore projects, tools like SACS and MOSES deliver advanced, purpose-built capabilities for structural analysis and floating vessel design.

Digital twins serve as a single pane of glass, aggregating 3D engineering models, 2D documentation, reality meshes, and real-time IoT sensor data. Bentley’s iTwin capabilities allow owner-operators to visually interact with their assets in real-world context, analyze performance analytics, and enable confident, data-driven decisions throughout the facility's lifecycle.

While Bentley Infrastructure Cloud offers highly secure, SOC 2 compliant cloud hosting, we understand the strict data sovereignty and security requirements of the oil and gas sector. ProjectWise and several other core applications can be deployed on-premises, or in a hybrid configuration, giving your IT department complete control over your proprietary data.

Bentley eliminates the traditional, fragmented handover process by enabling continuous data validation within a common data environment (CDE). As the capital project progresses, asset data is progressively mapped, structured, and verified. This ensures a seamless, digital handover that allows owner-operators to commence operations and maintenance systems on day one.

Absolutely, Bentley’s solutions are built on an open, federated framework designed for deep interoperability. Using Bentley Enterprise Connector Services (BECS), our AssetWise platform seamlessly integrates with leading enterprise resource planning (ERP) and enterprise asset management (EAM) systems like SAP and IBM Maximo, keeping your engineering and operational data perfectly synchronized.
