INSTITUT Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (INSTEP) and Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) entered an agreement to jointly develop an augmented reality (AR) module app for INSTEP’s first-of-its-kind live Upstream Downstream Training Plant (UDTP), which simulates upstream and downstream plant scenarios to produce job-ready engineers and technicians through real plant experiential learning.

Through this partnership, INSTEP and UTP will jointly develop a pilot digital module app with AR to complement the existing training modules related to INSTEP’s UDTP.

Present at the virtual signing ceremony was INSTEP chief executive officer Idris Ibrahim, while UTP was represented by its vice chancellor Prof Ts Dr Mohamed Ibrahim Abdul Mutalib. This is the first ever collaboration between these learning solutions partners in bringing virtual learning a step ahead by digitalising the physical learning facilities to enhance learners’ learning retention, especially amidst this unprecedented time when physical learning is restricted.

“Constantly innovating our learning delivery and technology, this newly developed AR module app is one of our many more Innovate Now initiatives in complementing our existing Virtual Instructor-Led Training and live demonstration to create enhanced experiential learning and support our learners and customers grow virtually, ” said Idris.

Prof Mohamed Ibrahim said: “This partnership is in tandem with PETRONAS’ initiatives of going digital and embracing digitalisation. With the digitalisation of training content, it will catalyse training to greater heights. It also enhances the quality of our research, productivity as well as enable the extension and application of knowledge to address both local and global needs.
