Dublin, April 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Strategic Intelligence: Augmented Reality in Energy" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The report covers how AR overcomes key challenges in the energy industry. These include equipment maintenance, training, health and safety, and an ageing workforce.
AR is transforming the energy sector by offering remote inspections, collaboration between experts and field workers, and new training methods. It has applications across the value chain for both the oil and gas and power industries.
AR has key use cases in the energy sector that drive enterprise adoption. These include remote assistance for equipment maintenance, immersive training experiences, and improving health and safety. Despite this, AR adoption has fallen short of its initial hype, straining vendors financially and prompting Microsoft to discontinue its mixed reality HoloLens headset, used by major players such as Chevron and Shell.
AR is reducing equipment downtime
AR enables frontline workers to have hands-free calls with experts who can directly add annotations to equipment, reducing the need for experts to travel to different sites. AR can also provide access to documents and checklists for workers to follow, including the asset maintenance history. These features ensure equipment is up and running quickly, minimizing downtime and allowing workers to work efficiently.
AR aids in training new staff
An aging workforce in the energy industry is increasing the need to capture knowledge from existing workers and train new staff on complex equipment. AR helps new workers to practice skills in a low-risk environment using standardized procedures, with in-field documents and prompts that reduce common mistakes, building confidence. AR also enables live collaboration with remote experts who can guide them through tasks, strengthening training outcomes
