AI/machine learning
The Energy and AI Observatory aims to use up-to-date information on energy demand from data centers to determine how artificial intelligence is optimizing the energy sector.
As carbon capture scales up worldwide, the real challenge lies deep underground—where smart reservoir management determines whether CO₂ stays put for good.
This article is the third in a Q&A series from the SPE Research and Development Technical Section focusing on emerging energy technologies. In this piece, Zikri Bayraktar, a senior machine learning engineer with SLB’s Software Technology and Innovation Center, discusses the expanding use of artificial intelligence in the upstream sector.
