Efficient digital transformation of the oil and gas industry relies on people with knowledge of both petroleum and digital domains. However, traditional petroleum engineering education and practice often lacks information on and experience with digital and automation (cybernetics) technologies. This course is intended to fill this gap for (petroleum) engineers, researchers and decision makers.
During the course the participants will get acquainted with a toolbox of cybernetics technologies, learn about their benefits and limitations, specifics of their application in the oil and gas industry, as well as application examples within drilling and well, production, operations and reservoir domains. At the end of the course the participants should be able to identify potential application areas for digital and automation technologies, select the right tools from the cybernetics toolbox, evaluate their business impact, identify and mitigate corresponding risks, establish an efficient communication process with developers/vendors of digital/automation technologies. All these elements are necessary for an efficient digital transformation process.
The course does not require any cybernetics background, although background in petroleum engineering (education or experience) is needed. The course will be run with multiple examples and computer-based training to get hands on experience on cybernetics technologies.
