Dr. Jagadish Chandra Maddiboyina, North America Oil and Gas Consulting Lead at Cognizant Technology Solutions, brings expertise across oil and gas data, digital technologies, and advanced analytics. His work focuses on applying digital capabilities to complex oil and gas environments, with an emphasis on using data and technology to improve operational visibility and decision-making.
In his session, “Reducing Emissions Through Digital Twins, Cloud Computing, and AI in Oil & Gas Operations,” Dr. Jagadish Chandra Maddiboyina explores how digital technologies can help organizations identify and act on opportunities to improve operational and emissions performance. The session examines the use of real-time simulation at scale to improve efficiency, reduce flaring and unplanned shutdowns, and stabilize operations. It also explores AI-driven scenario planning, allowing teams to compare potential changes in operating conditions, maintenance timing, or electrification before implementing them in real-world operations. The discussion further highlights the role of geospatial dashboards in giving decision-makers a map-based view of emissions, asset performance, and operational risks across the enterprise, creating a more connected foundation for data-driven oil and gas management.
