This article from Murphy Oil outlines a modernization effort that resulted in increased scenario simulation capacity by five to 10 times.
The transaction is expected to strengthen the company's position in Alberta’s oil sands and unlock annual synergies of $54 million.
The transition away from materials that contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), co-called forever chemicals, creates an opportunity to preserve historical information. Information that appears to have little operational value today may later become important when organizations need to evaluate past PFAS use. Once that information is lost, recreating it may…
