Abstract

Harsh industrial environments such as oilfields present unique challenges to electronic systems, including extreme temperatures, limited connectivity, power constraints, and operational unpredictability. Traditional Internet of Things (IoT) deployments often fail to adapt in real-time, exposing systems to risks such as data loss, late anomaly detection, or critical failure. This paper proposes a lightweight, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven eSystem architecture tailored for such conditions, integrating edge intelligence, secure communication, and self-adaptive mechanisms. We demonstrate the framework's viability through simulating a case study of real-time sensor data from pipeline infrastructure, applying a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)-based anomaly detection model deployed at the edge. Results show significant improvements in detection latency, bandwidth efficiency, and system resilience. The framework offers a modular blueprint for deploying AI-enhanced eSystems across energy, mining, and remote critical infrastructure domains.
