HSE & Sustainability
As drilling operations become increasingly digital, computer vision is emerging as a continuous safety layer that complements, not replaces, established safety practices. The challenge is no longer whether artificial intelligence can detect hazards, but how operators should deploy, integrate, and govern these systems to improve safety without adding operational comple…
New geothermal technical content and programming will highlight knowledge transfer among oil and gas and geothermal professionals.
