Strengthening Mechanical Integrity Through Digital Integration

Industrial operators today are under increasing pressure to do more with less, maximize uptime, ensure regulatory compliance, and extend asset life, all while controlling operating costs. Mechanical integrity (MI) programs play a critical role in meeting these demands, but too often inspection data lives in silos, disconnected from broader asset strategy and performance decisions.

To address this challenge, Baker Hughes is integrating Antea’s mechanical integrity capabilities into Cordant™ Asset Performance Management (APM) to bring inspection intelligence directly into enterprise-level asset decision-making with Cordant™ Asset Integrity powered by Antea.

Bridging the Gap Between Inspection Data and Asset Strategy

Antea brings more than 30 years of expertise in mechanical integrity, inspection data management, risk-based inspection (RBI), and pipeline integrity. By embedding these capabilities into Cordant™ Asset Integrity powered by Antea, operators gain a more connected digital foundation that links inspection results with asset strategy, reliability insights, and performance outcomes.

The result is a more holistic view of asset health, allowing teams to move beyond isolated inspection activities and toward integrated, data-driven decisions across the asset lifecycle.

Key Benefits of the Cordant™ + Antea Integration

1. Enhanced Asset Reliability and Safety

Critical equipment, such as pressure vessels, piping, and rotating assets, must be inspected and maintained in accordance with strict regulatory and engineering standards. With Antea’s integrity data integrated into Cordant™, operators can better ensure inspections are completed, tracked, and aligned with overall asset health objectives. This supports safer operations and greater confidence in compliance.

2. Optimized Maintenance and Reduced Operating Costs

By integrating mechanical integrity data into Cordant’s digital ecosystem, organizations can transition from traditional time-based maintenance to condition-based and risk-informed strategies. Enriched inspection and integrity data enables more targeted interventions, reducing unnecessary inspections and repairs while extending asset life and lowering OPEX.

3. Persona-Driven Workflows That Respect Existing Roles

A key advantage of the integration is that it enhances insight without disrupting established workflows.

• MI inspectors continue working within Antea’s specialized interface.
• Reliability, strategy, and performance teams access enriched MI data directly within Cordant™ APM.

This persona-driven approach ensures each role gets the information it needs when and where it’s needed while supporting more informed, cross-functional decision-making.

A Scalable Digital Thread Across Operations

Cordant™ is a modular, AI-enabled industrial enterprise solution designed to act as a digital thread across operations. By connecting asset data, analytics, and decision-making at scale, Cordant™ helps organizations automate insights, enhance reliability, and support sustainability initiatives.

The integration of Antea’s mechanical integrity capabilities represents a meaningful expansion of the Cordant™ portfolio and strengthens its ability to support complex energy and industrial operations with deeper, inspection-informed intelligence.

Built for the Future of Industrial Asset Management

As asset portfolios grow more complex and regulatory expectations continue to evolve, operators need solutions that break down data silos and elevate operational data from the plant level to enterprise-wide impact.

By combining Antea’s proven mechanical integrity expertise with Cordant™ Asset Performance Management, Baker Hughes is helping customers build more resilient, compliant, and efficient operations today and into the future.
