1. A method comprising:
receiving sensor information from an additional sensor of a plurality of sensors of an industrial operation, the additional sensor different from one or more component sensors of the plurality of sensors used for functionality of a component of the industrial operation, wherein sensor information from the additional sensor monitors conditions of a portion of the industrial operation different from sensor information of the one or more component sensors used by the component for the functionality of the component;
deriving, using the sensor information, a correlation between an operational parameter of the component and sensor information of the additional sensor, the operational parameter related to a predicted operational lifetime of the component, wherein deriving the correlation between the operational parameter of the component and sensor information of the additional sensor comprises using a machine learning algorithm to identify the correlation from sensor information of a plurality of additional sensors monitoring conditions of a portion of the industrial operation different from the functionality of the component;
identifying an abnormal operating condition of the component based on a comparison between additional sensor information from the additional sensor and the operational parameter; and
sending an alert comprising the identified abnormal operating condition.
