YPF’s data analytics experts are eagerly seeking partnerships with oilfield operations experts who can help blend elegant data analysis with the messy reality of oil production.

What is the effect of the reservoir type on the application of AI and ML in reservoir and production modeling?

The $43-million deal with Saipem will utilize a wireless underwater intervention drone and an ROV for intervention work on the Njord field in the Norwegian North Sea. Equinor said the contract is the first ever from an operator for advanced wireless drone services.

With recent advances in AI being enabled through access to so much big data and cheap computing power, there is incredible momentum in the field. Can big data really deliver on all this hype, and what can go wrong?

The industrial Internet of Things (IoT) is changing the way the oil and gas industry operates, but are companies leveraging it to its full potential? What strategies are being employed to handle the obstacles to implementation? Finding value in people plays a role in integrating IoT into operations.

The artificial-intelligence application BHC3 Reliability provides early warning of production downtime and process risk to improve operational productivity, efficiency, and safety.

Blending smart-proxy models with data-driven models to create hybrid models is not always the best idea for physics- and engineering-related applications.

Equinor is working on a natural language processing tool that could combine data sources and help planners anticipate the issues that affect onsite operational safety.

Even the most powerful computers are still no match for the human brain when it comes to pattern recognition, risk management, and other similarly complex tasks. A new approach, however, could enable parallel computation with light, simulating the way neurons respond in the human brain.

Artificial intelligence tools present many opportunities for the energy industry, and, as technological concepts leave the realm of science fiction, companies have started to grasp what is possible. What roles do culture and ethics play in helping companies understand the digital revolution?
