Digital Oilfield (Oil and Gas) - Thematic Research

Digital Oilfield (Oil and Gas) - Thematic Research

Summary

Digital Oilfields enable oil and gas companies and oilfield service providers to remotely monitor and control critical activities at production facilities. These technologies aim to boost productivity and efficiency in exploration and production (E&P) by minimizing equipment downtime and improving hydrocarbon recovery.

This is especially critical in today’s scenario where oil and gas producers are seeking to streamline their costs to recover from the COVID-led energy demand shock. Digital oilfields also help reduce the need for the physical deployment of personnel on site, thereby improving worker safety. Digital oilfield technologies have gained momentum with the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT).

They use artificial intelligence (AI), predictive analytics, and visualization tools to generate data-driven insights in real time to speed up decision-making processes. Companies are looking to automate as many processes as possible to mitigate operational risks as well as labor risks, potentially leading to cost savings in the long term.
