AI/machine learning
Artificial intelligence is prompting oil and gas companies to redefine roles, rethink trust, and rework operations, experts said during CERAWeek.
The gap between machine learning research and effective deployment in the oil and gas industry is an alignment challenge between research questions and real decisions, between model design and operational constraints, and between innovation and the people expected to use it.
Technology and partnerships remain important, while phased approaches may supplant lengthy appraisal programs, experts said during CERAWeek.
