New episode: autonomous robotics in oil and gas with Equinor and ANYbotics

This episode of the Energy Technology podcast discusses how autonomous robotics are solving oil and gas’ four Ds.

Eve Thomas February 09 2026

A new episode of our podcast, Energy Technology: Industry Insights, is out now.

Autonomous robotics offer an attractive solution to oil and gas operators navigating the four Ds, which define the bulk of the sector’s roles: dull, distant, dirty and dangerous. Robots can remove humans from risky situations, and provide high level insight in the most remote environments, but deployment isn’t plain sailing.

Join us to discuss one adopter’s experience and the innovation behind it, as we zoom in on the gas-sensing, microphone-wielding quadruped Roberta, and its deployment at the Northern Lights facility.

This episode is hosted by GlobalData’s oil and gas associate editor, Eve Thomas, and features insights from industry leaders including:

  • Equinor’s head of asset autonomy Magnus Rørvik Brandtzæg
  • ANYbotics’ senior director of sales and key accounts Mukesh Mukundun 
  • ANYbotics’ department head of ANYmal X Joël Schlienger
  • GlobalData analyst Sathwika Addela.
