Data & Analytics
A discussion at the inaugural executive breakfast convened by the SPE Data Science and Engineering Analytics Technical Section, held alongside CERAWeek by S&P Global and powered by Black & Veatch, tackled the challenge of value creation from artificial intelligence in the energy industry.
AI‑driven data center growth is straining US power grids and accelerating interest in enhanced geothermal systems as a scalable, low‑carbon solution.
The authors describe a study on key technologies for intelligent risk monitoring of workover operations.
-
Examples demonstrate how an Integrated Operations Center as a Service (IOCaaS) model, powered by artificial intelligence, reduced costs by 5% and increased production by 6% in Canada. -
The authors propose a deep-learning-based approach enabling near-real-time CO2-plume visualization and rapid data assimilation incorporating multiple geological realizations for predicting future CO2 plume evolution and area-of-review determination.
-
In this study, the authors propose the use of a deep-learning reduced-order surrogate model that can lower computational costs significantly while still maintaining high accuracy for data assimilation or history-matching problems.
