The authors of this paper propose a novel work flow for the problem of building intelligent data analytics in heavy-oil fields.

In this workshop, experts from all disciplines will discuss how science is being applied to optimize the development of unconventional resources—and what challenges remain to be solved.

Total plans to start a digital factory to tap artificial intelligence in a bid to save hundreds of millions of dollars on exploration and production projects, according to an executive.

Behavior-based safety is not a new concept nor is it new at Murphy Oil. But when Murphy launched its Safety Observation Program as a digital tool, it revitalized the way the culture of safety spread throughout the company.

New funding for a chatbot technology, or smart assistant, represents the latest development in the Norwegian operator’s drive toward digitalization.

This digital deal is helping to make augmented reality a new reality for oil and gas operations.
