Technology
The software will enhance education and research across energy, geothermal, mining, and geotechnical engineering by giving students and faculty hands-on access to industry-standard tools used worldwide.
AI is transforming oil and gas, but the real change will come from young professionals (YPs) who bridge technology and field expertise. By leading pilots, building networks, and challenging old assumptions, YPs can drive the industry’s digital transformation from within.
PE Ltd.'s software will allow students and faculty to work directly with modeling technologies and build real-world, job-ready skills.

Automated particle-size analyzers are something you will not see on most drilling rigs, but some think this outside-the-oil-field technology will play a big role in the future of the drilling sector.
-
A pilot project carried out by Hess demonstrates how quickly automated drilling technology is able to take a rig from the bottom of the pack in terms of performance and push it to the top.

I am disappointed to see public opposition to hydraulic fracturing, because I think, for the biggest part, it is unfounded. It would be inaccurate to deny that there can be problems. But an objective look reveals that its benefits far outweigh its potential risks.

The first brief flight at Kitty Hawk in 1903 did not immediately make the Wright brothers famous; however, within 5 years, enthusiasm for the new technology began to spread around the world. Louis Blériot won a prize for flying over the English Channel in a heavier-than-air craft in 1909, and Charles Lindbergh won the USD 25,000 Orteig prize for the first nonstop flig…
