automation

Two examples from ONGC show how supervised AI-driven automation scaled well modeling across hundreds of offshore wells, saving more than 1,000 engineering hours.

Examples demonstrate how an Integrated Operations Center as a Service (IOCaaS) model, powered by artificial intelligence, reduced costs by 5% and increased production by 6% in Canada.

The newest recipient of the title SPE Legend of Hydraulic Fracturing talks about his career, the evolution of fracture stimulation, the development of increasingly useful simulators, and the future of the oil and gas industry. The honor was given at the 2026 SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition.

The project with ExxonMobil used closed-loop drilling and digital well-construction technologies.

Autonomous drilling through managed pressure drilling (MPD) at the Atlantis field has given the operator confidence to scale the method.

This guest editorial explores the rise of agentic AI and its potential effect on oil and gas professionals.

Even as output hits record highs, a growing recognition of the Permian’s maturity is opening the door for new technologies to improve performance.

Aurora Innovation and Detmar Logistics have inked a deal for 30 autonomous trucks that will begin hauling sand in the region next year.

This paper presents the development of a digital tool for automatically analyzing the readiness of a borehole to accept casing. The tool integrates data-driven and physics-based models to indicate locations of risk along the wellbore.
