Data & Analytics
Discover how AI and machine learning are transforming oil and gas field development by reducing subsurface uncertainty, optimizing development decisions, and maximizing long-term reservoir value from concept selection through production.
As upstream operators move beyond isolated experiments, the hardest part of the AI journey is not building a model, it is making it stick.
Rodriguez reflects on engineering growth, systems thinking, and how strong technical foundations remain valuable across evolving industries.
-
A recent research effort has shown that the digital journey is full of stumbling blocks. Just like humans, advanced computing technology will get some things right and some things wrong. -
The company behind the world’s most popular search engine is trying to click with the upstream business at the most distinguished technical event of the year.
-
Venture groups spend their time evaluating hundreds of companies each year to only make a handful of investments. These two cover interesting ends of the upstream spectrum: aerial drones and downhole artificial lift.
-
Acquiring data from an abandoned subsea well has been done before, but never quite like this.
-
Wearable computers are turning heads in the oil and gas industry and appear to be on a trajectory for widespread adoption.
-
Data story consumers are focused on summarized results and highlights instead of details of the analysis. It’s a data scientist’s responsibility to identify the significance of the data and to present it in a simple but scientific manner.
-
R&D may be the key to the survival of companies as the new economics of the industry take hold.
-
Tiny soil samples may contain as many as 300,000 species of microbial life, but a Netherlands-based startup has figured out that between 50 and 200 of them can tell an operator if a drilling location will hold oil and gas reserves.
-
No longer considered a buzz phrase, cloud computing has made converts of the largest oil companies, and now the smaller ones are next.
-
While sidetracking your career path is not an easy journey, the skills and knowledge gained in petroleum engineering education can be applied in other industries during the downturn.
