Hiber has been selected as a finalist for the “Oil and Gas Startup of the Year” award at ADIPEC Awards 2022. The recognition follows a competitive selection process involving more than 1,000 submissions from companies across the global energy sector. Being shortlisted as one of three finalists reflects increasing industry demand for remote oil and gas monitoring solutions that improve operational visibility, efficiency, and safety.
Recognising Innovation in Oil and Gas Technology
The startup category at the ADIPEC Awards highlights emerging companies that are driving innovation across the energy sector. Finalists are selected based on their ability to introduce new technologies, improve operational performance, and contribute to the future of the industry.
HiberHilo was recognised for its role in advancing digital oilfield monitoring, particularly in remote and infrastructure-limited environments. By enabling continuous data collection through satellite IoT connectivity, the solution supports operators in transitioning from manual processes to data-driven operations.
Demonstrating Performance at Scale
As part of the evaluation process, Hiber submitted a case study demonstrating the performance of HiberHilo in a real-world deployment with Shell.
In this implementation, the system was tested against a traditional wired monitoring solution. Results showed that HiberHilo achieved 99.75% measurement accuracy and 99.8% uptime, while maintaining a significantly more flexible deployment model.
These results demonstrate the viability of satellite-enabled oil and gas monitoring systems as an alternative to conventional infrastructure, particularly in remote or hard-to-access locations.
Following this validation, HiberHilo has been deployed more broadly across global operations, supported by a framework agreement and expanding implementation across multiple regions.
Expanding Global Deployment
HiberHilo is now deployed across a wide range of oil and gas assets worldwide, including operations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific.
The solution is used by several major operators and independent producers to monitor wells and pipelines in remote environments. Its ability to deliver reliable data without reliance on terrestrial connectivity has supported adoption across geographically diverse and operationally complex assets.
This global footprint reflects the growing importance of remote asset monitoring in oil and gas, particularly as operators seek scalable solutions that support efficiency and safety.
Industry Context and Competition
The ADIPEC Awards bring together a wide range of technology providers addressing key challenges in the energy sector.
Finalists in the startup category included companies focused on robotics, inspection technologies, and emissions detection. Previous winners, such as Xsens AS, have demonstrated the industry’s focus on advancing measurement accuracy and operational insight.
Recognition alongside these organisations highlights the role of remote monitoring and IoT technologies in shaping the future of oil and gas operations.
Supporting the Energy Transition Through Digital Monitoring
As the energy sector evolves, digital technologies are playing an increasingly important role in improving operational performance and reducing environmental impact.
HiberHilo supports this transition by enabling continuous monitoring of well performance, reducing the need for frequent site visits, and improving decision-making through real-time data access.
The solution is delivered in collaboration with WTS Energy, supporting installation, service, and maintenance across global operations.
Recognition as a Milestone in Continued Growth
Being named a finalist at ADIPEC reflects both the maturity of the HiberHilo solution and its growing adoption across the oil and gas industry.
As operators continue to prioritise efficiency, safety, and sustainability, remote monitoring technologies are expected to play an increasingly central role in supporting these objectives.
