Innovating for Sustainable Future: Williams' Journey with NextGen Gas
Wipro and Databricks Partner to Build Williams Energy's First-Certified Gas Marketplace
Williams sought to disrupt the energy Industry by creating the first certified gas marketplace with a gas certification process to encompass the end-to-end supply chain: from production through transmission and delivery. Participants share emissions data throughout the value chain with the certification agency, Context Labs.
The Decarbonization-as-a-Service™ platform will enable Context Labs’ partners in upstream, midstream and downstream firms to track and quantify emissions associated with natural gas procurement, transmission, and delivery down to the individual molecule.
Achieving this ambitious goal involves ingesting and analyzing vast amount of complex time series data from proprietary systems like FlowCal, Maximo, and Pi which house critical data of transmission, emissions etc.
Wipro successfully tackled complex data engineering challenges by developing a PI Asset Framework (AF) for the NextGen use case, enabling seamless querying of data through PI AF using a linked server. Wipro leveraged Delta Share from Databricks for delivering data to Context Labs, while also provides necessary access tokens to the third party, in less than 48 hours which was a significant achievement. From complex data engineering to pioneering Delta Share and AI-driven tag consistency, Wipro’s solutions paved the way for NextGen Gas.
