Systems and methods for facilitating the management of energy production or processing facilities

A system for facilitating the management of one or more energy production or processing facilities, comprising:

• a processor;
• a non-transitory memory;
• and
• an application stored in the non-transitory memory that, when executed by the processor:
• receives an alert pertaining to a process equipment of the one or more energy production or processing facilities, the alert corresponding to an operational anomaly in the operation of the process equipment;
• interrogates by a data handler of the application a data structure linking together and organizing a plurality of distinct data sources, the plurality of distinct data sources having a sensor data class associated with sensor data sources of the process equipment, and a contextual data class associated with contextual data sources excluding the sensor data sources of the sensor data class;
• selects a subset of data sources from the plurality of distinct data sources, including both contextual data sources and sensor data sources, identified by the data handler as associated with a potential cause of the alert based on the interrogation of the data structure;
• statistically analyzes by the data handler data sourced from the selected subset of data sources;
• identifies by the data handler the potential cause of the alert based on the contextual data sources within the subsea of data sources and the performed statistical analysis;
• determines a severity of impact to the operation of the one or more energy production or processing facilities should failure occur to the process equipment;
• and
• recommends by the data handler a particular corrective action from a plurality of distinct potential corrective actions to resolve the identified potential cause of the alert using the plurality of distinct data sources and based on the severity of impact to the operation of the one or more energy production or processing facilities should failure occur to the process equipment.
