European Oil and Gas Digitalization Workshop

Tuesday, 16 February from 2:00-4:45 pm Central European Time (CET).

This event brings together IHS Markit experts and Upstream Technology and Innovation (UTAI) member company representatives to explore three topics of timely and strategic interest from the Winter 2020/21 Oil and Gas Digitalization research cycle:

• Updating oil and gas digitalization trends. The past few years have brought renewed interest in applying digital technologies to transform field development and production operations. IHS Markit reviews the range of approaches that E&P organizations are pursuing to realize these ambitions, advances in both the underlying technologies and organizational structures enabling them, and early value being realized.
• Digitalization in transition. While events over the past year have shone the spotlight brightly on digitalization's role in maintaining business continuity during a challenging period, these same forces are driving fundamental shifts in the upstream sector. Digitalization is evolving in response as well, and during this session IHS Markit will outline recent and projected developments in the areas of technology development focus areas, levels and characteristics of investment, data science capability development and value realization, supplier offerings, and other key areas.
• Shift to remote operations. Pandemic-related operating constraints are prompting companies to adjust how they manage their field and technical workforces, with one outcome a shift toward remotely executing and supporting work that was previously performed onsite. Remote operations was a slow-moving industry trend, but its unexpected acceleration over the past year is revealing a set of interesting insights―activities lending themselves to such practices, impact on oil company-supplier relationships, minimal technology needs, available benefits―that IHS Markit will explore in this session and bolster with industry-leading case studies.
