AI/machine learning
Known as Arena, the collaboration aims to improve decision-making across increasingly complex reservoirs and growing volumes of subsurface data.
Robotic and autonomous systems are transforming energy operations, but their full value emerges only when paired with data science, engineering analytics, and AI/ML to turn data into decisions. The transition of the SPE Robotic & Autonomous Systems Technical Section into the SPE Data Science & Engineering Analytics Technical Section helps bridge this critical technolo…
A credible custody-transfer record depends on far more than the accuracy of a single meter. It is the product of an integrated measurement chain. While meter performance supports measurement-system integrity, commercial confidence also depends on traceability, governance, and authorization.

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?
