Member News: Peterson Energy Logistics – A new era for illuminating supply chains with Lighthouse AI 

Peterson Energy Logistics is heralding a new era of intelligent data-driven tracking, analysis, and optimisation for energy supply chains with the development of its market-leading software suite Lighthouse.

The new Lighthouse AI feature has AI agent solutions enabled to analyse robust data sets and provide recommendations which streamline processes, optimise operations, and cut costs and carbon.

Lighthouse, which is also now ready to deploy in as little as a day as a Software as a Service (SaaS) product, has been built and developed with, and used by, Peterson’s logistics experts who have processed around 10m tonnes of cargo through the system in the past 13 years.

Sarah Moore, Chief Executive of Peterson Energy Logistics, said:

“As the energy and technology landscapes evolve, it has never been more important to recognise and act upon the value of data.

“When we launched Lighthouse back in 2012, investing in innovation for logistics, a traditional service offering, was new and a leap into the unknown. It has now become our norm.

“It is now time to take a new leap and lead a new norm – one which takes data from what we and our customers can see, to what we understand by transforming it into actionable insights and intelligence.”

Lighthouse empowers a quiet, seamless logistics supply chain, unburdening clients from time-consuming manual processes, offering real-time insight into areas such as cargo movement, quayside management, vessel activity, and third-party rental optimisation.

Jaye Deighton, Global Head of ICT and Innovation at Peterson, said:

“We talk about Lighthouse illuminating the supply chain. In the first iteration that meant shining a light so that people could find the information they were looking for. Through the Lighthouse AI feature, that has moved on significantly. The data is illuminating operations – the insights can make a significant difference to how businesses strategically conduct their supply chain operations.

“From a tech perspective, harnessing AI tools in this way is incredibly exciting and delivering tangible outputs which will support reducing non-productive time, optimising asset usage, and strategic developments. It is also a huge step forward to be able to deploy this in a SaaS capacity – taking the technology to customers on a global scale.”

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
