Rajiv Nischal, head of ONGC’s Institute of Production Engineering and Ocean Technology (IPEOT), shares the company's latest developments in technology, sustainability, safety, and more.
With a record-breaking number of participants, this year's datathon proved that collaboration is the catalyst, data is the tool, and innovation is the outcome.
David Nnamdi, SPE, speaks about his work as a data scientist and engineer, his development of Sequestrix, an open-source CO2 transport network optimization tool, and where he sees data science and AI’s role in the future of sustainable energy.

In an effort to foster collaboration in an area where there is currently very little, researchers at the University of Texas at Austin (UT) created a new web-based application for storing and sharing CT images of rocks.
-
Cyber threats have expanded beyond data breaches and the theft of intellectual property. Drilling and production assets are at risk of being disrupted or destroyed due to vulnerable control systems.
-
Case studies from around the world prove that big rewards await companies that optimize the artificial lift systems keeping their mature fields alive. The success stories involve a mix of monitoring, automation, and performance tracking.
-
Saudi Aramco is on a mission to increase the amount of seismic data that it collects by fourfold, while reducing costs and acquisition time by half of what it spends today.
-
It has been an impressive comeback for a technology that once stood on the brink of failure. The upstream oil and gas industry has largely resolved crippling technical challenges that shortened the life of fiber-optic cables in downhole applications and is now working on a big encore.
-
Some of the world’s largest exploration and production companies say the big bets they have placed on high-performance computing over the past several years are set to pay off.
-
Robotic submarines, capable of operating by themselves thousands of feet underwater for months or perhaps years at a time, are under development as the vanguard of tomorrow’s subsea oil and gas fields.
-
Unmanned aircraft are finding their place in the oil and gas industry by providing aerial geologic modeling to address reservoir-related challenges and making inspections safer.
-
Industry has developed smart completions, smart wells, and smart fields. The next frontier is real-time reservoir management (RTRM) using all of the data from smart installations, as well as artificial intelligence.
