3-D printing in oil & gas: How will it impact the industry
Mar 28:
The disruptive potential of electrics cars and the implications of the fast-evolving digital economy on oil demand now rank among oil producers’ top concerns.
8Oil companies are also evaluating the energy demand implications of the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution -- the digital economy -- as automation, robotics, big data and technologies such as 3-D printing gain ground. Some of the oil majors have recently started to model the impact of 3-D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, on future oil demand.
8Many technology watchers believe that an increasing number of applications will be found for 3-D printing, cutting overseas manufacturing and reducing the demand for freight.
