Oil Gas XR 5G Solutions

Why 5G True XR Smart Glasses with 3D Workflow are A Perfect Fit
for Oil & Gas Operations

The combination of 3D workflow, 360° anchoring, live annotation, remote support, and video calls becomes incredibly powerful when paired with 5G True AR & MR Glasses—especially for high-stakes industries like Oil & Gas—because it directly addresses some of the most critical challenges in field operations, safety, training, and cost-efficiency.

First, let’s explore the hardware that powers this solution.

There are a few True XR devices available on the market today, while some of the latest 5G True AR&MR devices, including the MRTECH's MRT-GTH4000EX (video here) and MRT-GTC2000EX and the brand new MRT-GTC2000EX with Thermal Camera, stand out as the pinnacle of True XR technology in 2025 and are revolutionizing oil and gas field operations for the years to come.

2. What truly distinguishes these True AR&MR glasses is their immersive, hands-free, 3D augmented experience. For example: Unlike traditional smartphone solutions or so-called "Assisted Reality" devices that rely on small, non-see-through 2D screens, the MRT-GTH4000EX -the industrial leading and only explosion proof 5G True MR Glasses, boasts an 85-125 inch see-through screen, delivering an expansive, crystal-clear augmented reality overlay. This large display allows users to view complex, layered data, visualizations, and 3D models directly in their line of sight, enabling real-time adjustments and decisions without interrupting their workflow. The see-through screen integrates the digital and physical worlds seamlessly, allowing users to interact with both simultaneously, something that is essential in dynamic, field-based operations.

3. Industrial-Grade AR&MR for Oil & Gas = Safe, Certified, Effective

  • MRTECH’s Advantage:

    • Explosion-proof (ATEX/IECEx certified) for Zone 1/Div 1 environments

    • Ruggedized against heat, dust, shock, and water

    • True AR/MR: Not just a HUD—real spatial computing

4. They are also lightweight (the 4000EX weighs just 350 grams), comfortable for extended use, and can be worn with hard hats or helmets. Furthermore, the ergonomic design minimizes fatigue during long hours of fieldwork, improving user efficiency and focus.

2. Live Annotation + Remote Support = Real-Time Expert Guidance

  • What it is: Experts can draw, point, or highlight directly into the wearer’s AR view during a live video call.

  • Why it matters: It’s not just “talking”—it’s showing, marking, and correcting with precision.

  • Impact:

    • Reduces costly back-and-forth

    • Accelerates troubleshooting

    • Solves problems on first visit (First-Time Fix Rate↑)

3. Video Call with Frontline View = “See What I See”

  • What it is: The glasses stream what the field worker is seeing to remote experts or control centers.

  • Why it matters: You can solve complex mechanical, electrical, or safety issues without flying in experts or stopping production.

  • Impact:

    • Saves travel costs and time

    • Keeps operations running smoothly

    • Enables 24/7 global support from anywhere

These glasses are not just about the cutting-edge technology; they’re built for the rigors of the oil and gas industry: Water proof, Drop proof, and Dust proof. This rugged design makes them ideal for outdoor conditions, ensuring they withstand harsh environments while maintaining user comfort. More Importantly and unlike traditional True AR devices, these advanced models are specifically designed to withstand the toughest conditions of the industry. The 4000EX and 2000EX are ATEX Zone 1 certified, ensuring that they are safe to use in hazardous environments with hydrocarbons, hydrogen, and other flammable materials, critical for high-risk operations.

1. 5G Connectivity = High-Performance Anywhere

  • What it is: Ultra-low latency, high-bandwidth mobile network support embedded directly in the glasses.

  • Why it matters: In remote refineries, rigs, and plants, wired or Wi-Fi is often unreliable or absent—5G enables real-time cloud access, HD streaming, and live support even in isolated locations.

  • Impact:

    • Supports smooth, stable video calls and data sync

    • Enables real-time IIoT dashboards in the glasses

    • Improves collaboration even in remote, offshore, or underground settings

A standout feature of these glasses is their 5G connectivity, which sets them apart from earlier AR devices. With lightning-fast data transmission and ultra-low latency, these glasses enable real-time interaction with complex 3D models and digital twins, transforming how professionals access and process information. The 5G capability ensures seamless transmission of large data sets and supports real-time decision-making, which is essential in fast-paced, high-stakes environments like oil and gas fields. For instance, field workers can instantly visualize intricate geological data or monitor equipment diagnostics, all while accessing critical safety alerts without delay. This advanced connectivity leads to greater operational efficiency, safety, and precision.

In summary, with MRTECH's industrial leading 5G Explosion Proof True XR Smart Glasses and the 3D Workflow Solution, oil and gas professionals gain access to advanced digital tools that significantly enhance operational performance, safety, and decision-making in the field.


The Net Benefit:
