Robotics Transforming Refinery Sampling (From Manual Logistics to Autonomous Laboratory Operations)
Industrial sites rely on thousands of manual sample transport movements daily. Delays and inefficient routes waste resources. Autonomous Mobile Robots offer a safer, predictable model freeing personnel for higher-value work.
Automate repetitive laboratory sample transport across multiple collection points and operating shifts.
Reduce manual transportation tasks so operators can dedicate more time to critical plant activities.
Navigate outdoor routes, variable weather conditions and dynamic operating environments with autonomous guidance.
Open architectures and programmable workflows allow routes, schedules and future integrations to grow with business needs.
How NTT DATA helps
Logistics processes with the greatest operational impact are identified to define the most effective automation strategy.
From digital route mapping to autonomous navigation and automatic trailer coupling, we engineer an end-to-end operational solution
Routes, behaviors and operational scenarios are tested through simulation and digital testing before production
Connect autonomous robots with laboratory systems, monitoring platforms and operational dashboards for complete visibility
Support deployment, operational adoption and continuous optimization as autonomous operations expand across the industrial site
Supporting a leading energy group in evaluating autonomous lab sample transport through robotics and digital integration
Up to 72% of collection trips involve only 1 – 4 sample containers, creating strong automation potential.
Autonomous towing enables movement of 50 – 65+ kg while maintaining operational flexibility.
Autonomous missions can be scheduled across morning, afternoon and night shifts with programmable routes.
Open ROS2 architecture enables future integration with monitoring platforms, laboratory systems and additional autonomous workflows.
Start the conversation that transforms your industrial logistics through autonomous operations.
