  • It was a pleasure to sponsor and contribute to this year’s Future Oil & Gas Conference in Aberdeen, UK. This conference series has become a high-quality resource for collaboration and knowledge sharing, especially for complex topics such digital transformation and how purposeful application of technologies can add substantial value to the oil and gas industry. I have had the pleasure of witnessing how these events have evolved into more of a community, where reflection and insights are widely shared. Speakers and panels are carefully curated to provide relevant topics, ranging from technical data management and AI to discussions on digital as a core component of an oil and gas business strategy. If you are someone that’s looking to connect with others in the topics of digital and technology-enabled value creation for the oil and gas industry, I would easily recommend this event.
