Case Study
The AI-Ready Data Foundation Behind a $300B+ Oil & Gas Supermajor
100K/day
Target Processing Scale
A $300B+ global oil & gas supermajor selected xMentium from 119 vendors to extract, structure, and govern 100M+ enterprise documents, creating a trusted data foundation for AI, analytics, and high-value operational use cases.
Preparing for a refinery turnaround requires a clear understanding of an asset's operational history, but that history is rarely found in one place. For one global oil and gas company, critical intelligence was distributed across a repository of more than 100 million documents, including P&IDs, work packages, condition assessments, maintenance records, manuals, and inspection reports. Manually reconstructing an integrated view of asset and operational intelligence was difficult, slow, costly, and prone to inconsistencies that could undermine accuracy and confidence in downstream decisions.
By classifying documents and extracting key information including asset and equipment identifiers, dates, and other metadata, the company began turning disconnected records into structured, connected intelligence. The approach achieved 95% extraction accuracy and incorporated human-in-the-loop validation designed to make review workflows up to 10X faster. At production scale, the architecture targets processing 100,000 documents per day.
The result extends well beyond turnaround preparation. The structured, governed knowledge layer is designed to support more than 100 downstream AI and analytics use cases, including operational improvement, EPC buildouts, and field inspection quality. By creating the data foundation once and making it reusable across the enterprise, the company can turn decades of operational history into intelligence that supports both immediate workflows and future AI initiatives.
