Running the World's First Autonomous Drone Program on a Floating Offshore Facility with Shell

  • NestGen ’26
  • Oil & Gas

October 2, 2026 · 30 min

Offshore facilities operate under some of the toughest inspection and safety constraints in industry. When access is limited and response windows matter, autonomous drones can give operators a new way to inspect assets and improve visibility without adding unnecessary exposure for on-site teams. In this NestGen session, Shell will share what it means to run the world’s first autonomous drone program on a floating offshore facility, and what oil and gas teams should think through when evaluating similar deployments in remote, high-consequence environments.
