As video game technology has evolved, so have the ways in which this technology can be used in the oil and gas industry.
Five key themes to AI's success including standardization, automation, integration, scalability, and continuous improvement can provide a clear roadmap for effective AI deployment, addressing challenges and driving sustainability across the subsurface energy sector.
TWA editor in chief and University of Oklahoma alumnus Aman Srivastava interviews the professors and students in the university's petroleum engineering department about the cutting-edge research YPs are participating in.

There are headlines every day that discuss the ethics and safety behind oil and gas operations, particularly hydraulic fracturing.
-
I had the opportunity to discuss the state of the art and the future of reservoir modeling and reservoir performance forecasting with one of the finest members of the reservoir engineering profession, professor Larry W. Lake, of the University of Texas at Austin (UT).

Europe’s largest onshore oil field, the Patos-Marinza in southern Albania, has been given a new lease on life after seeing production soar from 600 B/D just over a decade ago to more than 20,000 B/D this year.
-
In the realm of enabling technologies, multiphase flow modeling has proven to be one of the most important to the oil and gas industry. Without it, nearly all subsea wells would be too costly or dangerous to develop.
-
The amazing rate of improvement in computing technology provides numerous opportunities for improving our operations, but unless the data from various systems can be integrated, it won't deliver on its potential.
-
An ongoing research project started nearly 3 years ago by the US Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) is shedding new light on what really happens to foamed cement as it is pumped deep down offshore wells during completions.
