AI/machine learning
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.
This article presents a results-driven case study from an ongoing collaboration between a midstream oil and gas company and Neuralix Inc.
