Working with Dell Technologies and NVIDIA, the French supermajor is targeting improved seismic processing and artificial intelligence applications.
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 complete paper describes the development of the “digital field worker” at Johan Sverdrup, an initiative that has changed the approach toward not only construction and completion but also operations.
-
The complete paper discusses optimization of a development plan involving low-salinity water injection.

The Norwegian company completed what it describes as the world’s first logistics operation with a drone to an offshore installation.
-
Equinor said drones could reinforce safety, boost production efficiency and contribute to lower CO2 emissions from Norwegian oil and gas
