Energy transition
New geothermal technical content and programming will highlight knowledge transfer among oil and gas and geothermal professionals.
The challenge is to ensure that changes to major accident hazards are properly managed, whether the changes occur by adapting conventional industry operations to lower carbon or by introducing innovative technologies.
Winners of Alberta's Drilling Technology Challenge cover a range of technologies from robotics to enhance drilling rig safety to AI-enabled energy management, downhole sensing, well navigation, hybrid power systems, and geothermal energy.
