AI/machine learning
Best practices are not static; they evolve alongside advancements that redefine what is achievable.
New strides in computer vision, well controls indicators, and BOP alignment were showcased at the recent Offshore Technology Conference.
Gautam Swami, manager of corporate R&D at NOV and SPE member, shares his experiences in building a career in oil and gas R&D, discusses how innovation is shaping the industry, and offers guidance to young professionals.

ODDS—organization, due diligence, data, and scrub. These four important steps can make sure you are ready to implement artificial intelligence in a way that leads to a successful project.
-
The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company announced that it has completed the first phase of its large-scale multiyear predictive maintenance project, which aims to maximize asset efficiency and integrity across its upstream and downstream operations.
-
Phase 1 covers the modeling and monitoring of assets for six ADNOC Group companies. The four phases of the project are expected to be completed by 2022.

SponsoredWith an intense focus on improving returns and cash flow, oil and gas producers need step-change improvement in managing production versus plan. Embracing AI is critical to overcoming today's tools that largely fall short of achieving that ultimate goal.
-
The agreement signed by Schlumberger, AIQ, and Group 42 is designed to develop and commercialize artificial intelligence for global exploration and production.
-
A new study confirms the success of a natural-gas leak-detection tool pioneered by Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists that uses sensors and machine learning to locate leak points at oil and gas fields, promising new automatic, affordable sampling across a vast natural gas infrastructure.
-
The oil and gas industry has picked up on the benefits of digitization and artificial intelligence in its day-to-day activities, and the health, safety, and environment sector is no exception. While AI brings clear benefits, the risks that come with those benefits remain unclear.
