3YOURMIND Partners With RusselSmith to Develop Additive Manufacturing Hub for Oil & Gas

News By Chinmay SarafApril 30, 20243 Mins Read
PARTNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT 3YOURMIND
LinkedIn Twitter Facebook WhatsApp Pinterest Email Copy Link

3YOURMIND is partnering with RusselSmith, the first industrial additive
manufacturing provider in West Africa, to enhance the identification, digitization, and additive
manufacturing of parts for the upstream oil and gas industry. Based in Lagos, Nigeria,
RusselSmith is the only organization qualified by the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory
Commission (NUPRC) to deploy industrial non-metallic additive manufacturing solutions in the
Nigerian oil and gas industry.

As Africa’s largest economy, Nigeria has one of the region’s most powerful energy sectors and
hosts many oil and gas supermajors. Today, the industry faces the challenge of sustaining and
maintaining equipment on aging assets due to the difficulty of procuring legacy parts. The
unavailability of these parts, which are often no longer manufactured and difficult to
remanufacture, can cause significant disruptions to operations. RusselSmith seeks to fill this
gap between needed and available parts by manufacturing such parts locally, helping
companies improve their operational uptime and reduce costs.

RusselSmith will use 3YOURMIND’s part identification software to identify viable additive
manufacturing applications for the oil and gas industry. Once parts have been identified for their
technical compatibility and economic feasibility, RusselSmith will use its expertise in design for
additive manufacturing (DfAM) to optimize and produce them using additive technology.
Optimized parts will then be added to the digital inventory interface that is powered by
3YOURMIND, enabling RusselSmith to streamline pricing, delivery, and order operations for its
customers.

“There is significant potential for improving operational efficiency in the oil and gas industry
through the additive manufacturing of legacy parts, and it all starts from being able to identify
viable parts across the industry and determine the most efficient ways to manufacture such
parts additively.” says Kayode Adeleke, CEO of RusselSmith. “We are pleased to partner with
3YOURMIND to improve our solutions, and we look forward to making a positive impact in the
region together.”

“This partnership with RusselSmith aligns with 3YOURMIND’s vision to serve the needs of the
energy sector by making it easier to identify and produce critical components to sustain
equipment,” says Jos Burger, Executive Chairman at 3YOURMIND. “RusselSmith provides
astounding expertise in additive manufacturing and oil and gas, and we’re very pleased to enter
the region with such a strong local partner.”

About 3YOURMIND:
3YOURMIND is an on-demand manufacturing software platform that empowers companies to
identify and produce parts as needed. OEMs, operating companies, and contract manufacturers
can create digital inventories of qualified parts that reduce costs, shorten production lead times,
and secure more efficient and agile operations. 3YOURMIND addresses companies’ current
needs to produce spare parts quickly while enabling advanced manufacturing technologies and
data-driven decision-making to create new parts faster, lighter, and with cost-saving potential.

About RusselSmith:
RusselSmith is a leading Integrated Energy Solutions provider with a focus on technology
solutions for Asset Integrity Management, Oilfield Management, Smart Manufacturing, and
Sustainable Energy.

RusselSmith’s services are designed to help its customers operate, manage, optimize, and
extend the productive lives of their energy assets in safe and sustainable ways.
