Past event: Edge Computing Technologies in Oil and Gas Conference

Edge Computing: The paradigm shift for the Oil and Gas Industry has arrived

The physical complexities associated with the oil and gas industry have always been common knowledge: from deep wellbores, extensive pipeline networks, complex refining processes and vastly distributed terminals. Such disparate infrastructure has always been the cause of information lags, silos and operational inefficiencies.

The deployment of Edge Computing is widely viewed as a game changer, presenting oil and gas companies with the opportunity to achieve end-to-end informational, workforce and commercial transformation.

This conference will bring together all three components of edge transformation like:

Information transformation
  • Strategies to achieve competitiveness through effective information processing
  • Capitalizing on real-time intelligence to improve performance efficiency
Workforce transformation
  • Training your workforce to make the jump to new digital heights
  • Leveraging new digital skills enterprise-wide
Commercial transformation
  • Strategies to widely improve processing times
  • Maximizing data capture to yield more in-depth information across products and portfolios

Plus:
  • The future of edge computing for oil and gas: current trends, future opportunities and challenges
  • The nuts and bolts of applying edge for asset-intensive remote operations
  • Strategies to ensure successful edge computing deployment: speed, ease and security
  • Integration and connectivity of legacy equipment through edge computing
  • Strategies to optimize oil extraction with edge computing
  • The opportunities and challenges of digital twins in IIoT
  • The development of synthetic sensors and IIoT and their deployment to improve maintenance and reduce downtime
  • Intelligent edge processing to save time, boost response time, reduce data storage and lower transmission costs
