What is the Future of Upstream Automation?
It’s predicted $100bn of industry-wide cost savings can be achieved within the next decade by upstream oil & gas operators by embracing automation and digitalization solutions.
Current global market conditions, oil price volatility and fluctuations in demand, are strongly incentivizing upstream operators to adapt their processes to optimize exploration and production. Using a technology-led approach to drive down costs, maintain profitability, improve safety and increase operational efficiency are crucial for the immediate future.

What is unique about our event?
Every organization, well site and employee will face their own unique challenges daily. Business objectives vary, each company will vary in size, budget, resource and skill sets; which means that a “one size fits all” method may not be effective.
Understanding this, the format is designed to drive value through the power of discussion, leaning on automation experts to structure separate conversations and lead them according to the objectives of the participants. This allows discussion to flow more seamlessly and create an opportunity to work through current problems by using the collective experience, not just from the facilitator, but all participants who have varying backgrounds and skills sets.
