Problem

MODEC operates a fleet of floating production vessels (FPSOs) where equipment failures cause downtime. It wanted early warning of failures before they happened.

Approach

Lighthouse is a predictive maintenance platform built by Shape Digital, a MODEC spin-off. It uses AI and analytics to monitor equipment health across the operating fleet and flags early signs of possible failure. MODEC's global director of digital and analytics described it at the ROG.e 2026 conference.
