The Immersive Virtual Reality (VR) has the potential to significantly enhance the non-renewable energy (NRE) industry by improving safety and efficiency in operational and training processes. In order to explore applications of immersive technologies aimed at enhancing processes within the NRE energy sectors, a systematic review of the literature published in the last decade was conducted. Utilizing the PRISMA framework with snowballing, a collection of 53 articles was acquired, and subsequent examination based on indicators such as the energy industry sector, VR application use cases, and employed VR technologies (both hardware and software) revealed that only a limited number of studies (16 out of 53) met the eligibility criteria. The results revealed that in 94% of the publications, immersive VR technologies are utilized for training purposes. This research provides valuable insights and knowledge to stakeholders in the NRE industry, including companies, policymakers, and researchers, who can utilize the findings to implement immersive virtual reality technologies for complex simulations and remote operations.
