18:55 Opening and Introduction
19:00 Trust: What makes or breaks new technology, and your organization
- Kristian Gould, Specialist, Human Factors and Organizational Safety, Equinor ASA
New technology often fails to live up to its promise. Most things are not on the blockchain. We do not ride around in self-driving cars. AI has not replaced our physicians. And most likely, it never will. Calibration of trust is key to the success of new technology implementation. In this talk we will discuss what creates trust in technology, how it is lost, and what we can do about it. Finally, we will discuss the meaning of trust in an organisational setting, and why so many are talking about it right now.
Kristian Gould helds a PhD, Human Factors, from University of Bergen. He is currently leading Human and Organizational Performance (HOP) implementation in Equinor. He has worked with safety and risk management across all parts of business, including asset development and construction, marine operations, drilling, up- and downstream production and transportation. Kristian has worked with method development and improvement in qualitative and quantitative risk assessment, organizational change, safety culture and human-machine systems. Prior to joining the energy industry, he did research on navigation safety in the Norwegian navy.
08:25 Introduction
08:30 IT TAKES 3 and a Community TO DO IG
- Susan Lamb, Manager, Shell and Atle Skjekkeland, CEO, Infotechtion
You'll hear a progress report on a real-time case study. Find out how Shell's legal, IT, and business teams are co-leading their organization's information management improvement journey. Be inspired by Shell's approach to engaging individuals at all organizational levels to increase awareness of information anagement, building IM capability and visibility in the organization, and leveraging IM communities to embed good IM practices in ways of working.
08:55 Subsurface Dashboards for Factory Drilling: Integrating OSDU and Corporate Laboratory Data
- Igor Escobar, Digital officer Geosciences and Reservoir Engineering, TotalEnergies
- James Tomlinson, VP Data Solutions, Ikon Science
TotalEnergies is developing fields in the Albertine basin in Uganda, drilling around 400 wells over 4-5 years and require visibility into the subsurface data being produced for a wide range of subsurface professionals. This paper presents a case study of building a subsurface synthesis and visualisation integrating data that is being stored in OSDU data platform of Uganda along with rock and fluid data which is being processed by TotalEnergies global laboratories.
09:20 Digitalization Done Right: A Data-First Strategy
- Andreas Svendsen Sandvik, IT & Digital Business Partner - Subsurface & Exploration, Vår Energi
While the industry rushes towards digital transformation, focusing on technology and ambitious projects, the true essence of digitalization lies in a solid data foundation. Our approach to digitalization in Subsurface & Exploration in Vår Energi is the emphasis of a robust data infrastructure and data management function as a catalyst for AI and technology applications. This strategy ensures that the quality and accessibility of data are not afterthoughts, but prerequisites for innovation.
10:15 Modern Data Management at Scale
- Ricardo Texeira, Principle Data Architect, Thoughtworks
As organizations strive to adopt AI and other data-driven emerging technologies, many are held back by the same persistent foundational challenges — data quality and availability, governance issues and legacy architecture complexity. In this talk we will share a modern way of thinking about your data management to be ready to solve these challenges at scale.
10:40 Panel Debate: Led by Einar Landre, Lead Digital Architect, Equinor
The Data Trilemma: Balancing Quality, Security, and Risk in the Age of AI - Unlocking the Potential of AI in Data Management: Challenges, Opportunities, and a Transdisciplinary Approach.
- Panel Members: Susan Lamb (Shell), Chandra Yeleshwarapu (Halliburton), Christine Rhodes (Amazon), Chad Brockman (Google), Ricardo Texeira (Thoughtworks)
We'll explore the impact of AI on data management practices and examine the opportunities and challenges presented by this technological shift.
11:35 What is the OSDU Community Implementation?
- Chad Brockman, Principal Engineer, Google Cloud
The OSDU Community Implementation project will provide a common implementation of the OSDU platform that can be built, tested, and released by the community, without relying on any commercial cloud providers or offerings.
12:00 Data Managers: AI-Savvy Leaders Powering the GenAI and Data Driven Energy Company of the Future
- Christine Rhodes, Partner Segment Lead, Energy Data Platforms, Amazon Web Services and Mark Wiseman, Accenture
The call to action is clear: data managers must begin the process of upskilling themselves, delving into the world of cloud computing, AI/ML, generative AI, and intelligent agents. By taking advantage of resources like the Data Science as a Service Launchpad, data managers can start experimenting with these transformative technologies and explore their potential to enhance decision-making and drive business value. The future is bright, and data managers who embrace this AI revolution will be poised to become the indispensable leaders of tomorrow's oil and gas industry.
12:25 Asset Digital Twin
- Chandra Yeleshwarapu, Senior Director and head of products and customer experience, Halliburton - Landmark
Therese Rannem, Subsurface Project Leader, Equinor
It’s time to harness the full potential of data to describe and build a process and manage an asset digital twin. this session will help provide a framework based on OSDU on how to build an asset digital twin and show it in action with both interoperability at its core and an ecosystem that can help bring it to bear. The presentation also provides a step by step approach to implement such a technology.
