Join Siemens at the 50th annual Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), May 6 – May 9 at NRG Park in Houston, TX, where Siemens' subject matter experts will share their insights on navigating the "new normal" in oil and gas and the digital revolution quietly transforming all industries.Harmful emissions and a global population of more than 1 billion who lack access to power are among the world's most pressing challenges. Siemens is effectively addressing both, by making fossil fuels cleaner, building out the vast transportation infrastructure required to move natural gas to destination markets, and effectively harnessing IoT solutions to maximize efficiency and reduce risks. Visit us at booth #4422 to learn more about how our carbon-cutting, efficiency-boosting, and data-exploiting solutions are transforming the energy sector and the world that relies on it.
Two technology teams were recognized today at the 50th annual Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) – Siemens BlueVault™ energy storage solutions and the Subsea Power Grid. Siemens is one of three companies to receive two Spotlight on New Technology (SONT) awards this year.
- Partnership defines a new approach to digital safety and security
Siemens and TÜV SÜD have come together to address the growing risk of cyberattacks on critical infrastructure by collaborating to provide digital safety and security assessments, as well as industrial vulnerability assessments to help global energy customers identify asset risk and cybersecurity solutions.
- New IP routers and IP interfaces ensure secure data and access-proof KNX communication over IP
- KNX IP Secure devices meet the highest security requirements in smart buildings
- More flexibility in power supply minimizes KNX bus current consumption
