Safety
The company said its frequency of serious incidents was down at the end of the year from its levels at the end of 2024.
This paper examines how real-time monitoring can improve both incident prevention and emergency response in the oil and gas industry. Drawing from real-world examples and case studies, it provides practical strategies for implementing this technology effectively.
This paper presents a novel application of artificial intelligence in computer vision for automating blowout-preventer pressure-chart-data extraction, demonstrating significant efficiency gains and a high return on investment.
