CERAWeek panelists see AI as a way to leverage data and people in interpreting data for exploration, but a cultural shift at companies may still be needed.
Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.
The newest recipient of the title SPE Legend of Hydraulic Fracturing talks about his career, the evolution of fracture stimulation, the development of increasingly useful simulators, and the future of the oil and gas industry. The honor was given at the 2026 SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition.
