Webcasts

World Oil webcasts and webinars are in-depth presentations on oil and gas applications, trends and technology. Moderated by a World Oil editor and including technical experts, these events are focused on providing qualified engineers and professionals in the upstream oil and gas industry with the latest information pertaining to offshore and onshore exploring, drilling, completions and production.

Enterprise AI for Field Development Optimization

December 14, 2021

Efficiency of existing operations and investments in upstream oil and gas requires a new approach. Cleaner, safer, more efficient energy production is needed to meet increasing demand while reducing emissions. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning will play a pivotal role in unifying siloed upstream data and better optimizing field operations to meet these needs. In this webinar, World Oil editor Craig Fleming hosts a discussion about the state of digital adoption in upstream oil and gas, the complexity of adopting and scaling AI, and examples of how AI is being applied today for improved outcomes.

November 16, 2021

As a leader in tubular solutions, Vallourec developed a new protocol for qualification of connections aimed at hydrogen storage wells. This test program, as well as results showing excellent hydrogen tightness of VAM® 21 premium connection, will be presented in this webcast.

Drilling Innovations & Technology Forum: Fall 2021

November 10, 2021

Advances in drilling technology increasingly require collaboration by traditional drilling players with partners outside the core of the oil & gas industry. Identifying who can provide the missing innovation pieces – whether it is a technology company to develop software for an advanced exploration system, or an academic researcher with expertise in an obscure chemical discipline – is a critical step for innovation in drilling. Join PatSnap to learn how connected innovation intelligence tools and techniques can be used to empower the drilling industry to discover and collaborate with the best possible partners.
