Industrial AI Without Accountability: Why AI Initiatives Fail to Scale and How Energy Leaders Can Turn Innovation Into Impact
- The energy industry is rapidly investing in AI, automation, and advanced analytics, but many organizations are discovering that successful transformation requires more than deploying new technology. Without clear ownership, governance, operational alignment, and measurable business outcomes, AI initiatives often remain disconnected pilots rather than enterprise-wide drivers of performance.
- Drawing from more than 30 years of leadership experience across energy, technology, and enterprise transformation, including global leadership roles at Halliburton Landmark Services, Steve Senterfit explores why industrial AI efforts stall and what leaders can do differently. This session will examine how oil and gas organizations can create accountability frameworks that connect AI investments to operational priorities, workforce adoption, and measurable value creation.
- Why AI initiatives fail when accountability and ownership are unclear

Beyond the Repository: Integrating Engineering Knowledge into a Living System
- Why fragmentation, not scarcity, is the real failure mode of engineering knowledge management
- The architecture of an integrated knowledge spine - connecting standards, deviations, conflicts, lessons, and experience so an insight in one propagates to all
- How an AI reasoning layer across integrated knowledge surfaces patterns, clashes, and needed standard changes no single silo could see
- A maturity path from document repositories? connected system? self-assuring, living knowledge

Operational Intelligence: Turning Data into Business Growth
- Using LogistixIQ as a real-world case study, this presentation demonstrates how AI predicts supply chain risks that contribute to nonproductive time (NPT), automatically prioritizes recommendations, and supports operational decision-making throughout well execution. Attendees will see how AI-generated insights are embedded into daily field workflows to improve execution - not simply reported after the fact.
- The session will also explore how E&P operators can extend this approach by creating an operational data hub that enables AI agents to monitor multiple contractors, identify emerging execution risks across the supply chain, and recommend coordinated actions before performance degrades.
- Finally, the presentation will discuss the practical challenges of building an operational AI platform, including data quality, system integration, change management, and the methods used to transform fragmented operational data into trusted, actionable intelligence.
