Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001084

A virtual replica of a physical asset, process, or system, created using real-time data from sensors and historical information. This dynamic model simulates the behavior and performance of its physical counterpart, allowing for continuous monitoring and analysis. In the oil and gas industry, digital twins are used for facilities, wells, and pipelines to predict maintenance needs and simulate operational changes.
