Digital Twins; The Key to Repurposing and Revitalizing Assets.

Many oil and gas assets are now being repurposed for multiple uses, ranging from geothermal energy, energy storage, CCUS, and hydrogen.
Digital twins can help determine the suitability of repurposing the assets used in production as well as in pipelines, midstream facilities, and storageDigital twins can help determine the suitability of repurposing the assets used in production as well as in pipelines, midstream facilities, and storage
Later, digital twins can be used for efficient and safe operations.

Remote Operations Theme

Focus will be ‘how automation is a key enabler of remote operations’
Remote operations strategy is where E&P operators use a centralized location to manage 100’s or 1,000 of well sites
Remote operations are a strategy where E&P operators are reducing OPEX and increasing production
We will also reference case studies
