New Delhi (15.04.2021): Accenture will use its capabilities in data, artificial intelligence (AI), and cloud technologies to build, design, and implement a digital platform called IRIS for BPCL.

To begin with, IRIS will integrate and process real-time data from across BPCL’s countrywide network of more than 18,000 fuel retail outlets, 25,000 tank trucks, 75 oil installations and depots, 52 liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) bottling plants, and 250 additional industrial and commercial locations, to provide a consolidated view of the oil PSU's extensive operations.

Later, the IRIS platform will also trigger automated alerts and actions, including rapid response to equipment failures or hazardous situations.

According to Arun Kumar Singh, Director (Marketing) and Director (Refineries), BPCL, the IRIS platform will empower the BPCL workforce of more than 100,000 across the country to make faster and more accurate decisions, including preventative maintenance. This can also help BPCL increase its sales at fuel retail outlets by minimizing infrastructure downtime and ensuring consistent fuel quality, as well as improve the experience for customers.

The IRIS platform is capable of accepting and processing more than three million inputs per second from automated sensors, cameras, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices deployed at all key locations, tracking performance based on key parameters such as fuel stock, safety, compliance, equipment health and boosting asset uptime.
