This research focuses on combining physics-based expert rules with machine learning to improve the detection of failure-related events in electrical submersible pumps.
A combination of physics principles and machine-learning techniques is used in this work to develop a virtual flowmeter for oil-production optimization in electrical-submersible-pump-lifted oil wells, resulting in reliable generalization.
This paper presents the deployment of an artificial intelligence-enabled autonomous gas lift optimization system, integrating real-time centralized advanced process control with cloud-based analytics to enhance artificial gas lift performance in producer wells.

First developed as a proprietary system by a large Permian Basin operator, this hydraulic fracturing schedule exchange will be run by a data company and opened up to the entire North American shale sector.

Usually, field engineers manually pick events such as start and end times out of hydraulic-fracturing pumping data. This manual process is time-consuming and prone to error. Now, a Denver-based company is using machine learning to identify these events more accurately and consistently.

Unlike structured data, unstructured data is information that either does not have predefined labels or is not organized in a predefined template, and inefficient management of this data is holding back the industry.

Baker Hughes is still a GE company, but it has partnered with a second company for artificial intelligence expertise, C3.ai. The deal is expected to speed the integration of AI into oilfield operations by the company which also markets GE’s device analytics platform, Predix.

Quantum computers exploit the peculiar behavior of objects at the atomic scale and use the qubit as the basic unit of quantum computing. A quantum computer with only 100 qubits would, theoretically, be more powerful than all the supercomputers on the planet combined.
