Safety
This paper presents a physics-informed machine learning method that enhances the accuracy of pressure transient analysis, predicting reservoir properties to enhance waste slurry injection and waste disposal.
Through realistic simulations, virtual reality allows for an unprecedented level of immersion and interactivity that traditional training methods cannot offer.
Researchers with the National Energy Technology Laboratory showed that naturally occurring signals in underground fluids can serve as effective indicators of flow patterns between existing wellbores. Understanding these patterns can lead to increased efficiency and safety.

One expert says there needs to be a transfer of safety culture from the traditional energy industry to the newer offshoot of renewables. -
While personal protective equipment has not traditionally had the technological capabilities to help prevent worker injury due to human error, the latest safety innovations, such as gas detection wearables, can help provide visibility and data-driven insights.

To explore motor vehicle safety, the agency is conducting interviews with workers as well as focus groups with managers and supervisors.
-
Where health, safety, and environmental efforts are focused must create value for the organization.

A recent report released from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine shows improvement in measurement and management of systemic risk in Gulf of Mexico oil and gas operations but adds that progress lags in some areas.
-
A study from the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers shows the value of eye-tracking in well control operations.

OSHA cited BP with 10 serious violations, saying the gas production plant lacked adequate training and process controls for leaks. The explosion killed two workers in September.
-
OSHA issued citations to oil and gas waste-management company Production Waste Solutions for failing to protect workers from hydrogen sulfide after an employee died.
