Safety
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…
This paper explores how artificial intelligence (AI), cognitive models, and integrated digital tools can transform readiness from periodic drills into a continuous, measurable capability.
This paper presents a competency-cenetered, data-driven approach implemented to strengthen control-room emergency-response capability through a cloud-hosted, scenario-based virtual plant simulator.

In-situ extraction of heavily sulfured oil by use of steam injection comes with a high risk of hydrogen-sulfide production resulting from aquathermolysis reactions. This could lead to casualties, environment damage, and corrosion of surface facilities and wells. Also, a strong need exists to understand aquathermolysis reactions and to forecast the generation of acid g…
