CEOs: Oil and Gas Looms Large in Future Energy Mix Stephen Whitfield, Staff Writer

he road to a low-carbon future Twill add enormous complexity to oil and gas operations, but the industry still figures to play a significant role in the energy mix. That was the theme from one of the chief executive officer (CEO) plenary sessions (“Vision to Prosperity: A New Energy Era Emerges”) from the first day of this year’s IPTC, in which five CEOs from various parts of the supply chain spoke about how their companies factor into a rapidly changing world. In his first public speaking engagement since Saudi Aramco’s $29.4-billion IPO, CEO Amin Nasser said there is a practical, economic framework for transition worth discussion, one in which oil and gas plays a significant role. “We look at this transition in a pragmatic light, because surely its foremost driver is a desire to move to a lower carbon energy mix or, more precisely, an energy mix with lower greenhouse gas emissions. But, when it comes to transitioning, oil and gas is not yet halfway there, and there is a lot more low-hanging fruit,” Nasser said. Nasser also spoke on a more granular level about the potential vulnerability of the company’s assets in the wake Nasser said his company’s quick recovery from drone attact was a testament to its reliability. of drone attacks on its oil processing energy transition may add significant- capital efficiency.

Microsoft’s efforts in and gas companies. Edge. By using machine-learning algorithms, a security camera installed in the fields or local gas stations can pick up hazardous behaviour such as smoking, reckless driving, and theft. These systems are also able to learn more about dangerous behaviour thanks to the flexible system of uploading frames instead of large files, then use them in the process of deep learning. Apart from security cameras, digitalising oil and gas platforms can lead to economic and efficient maintenance strategies. In offshore and remote production hubs where vital equipment is installed, the Azure intelligent cloud allows maintenance to be forecast 48 hours in advance so inventory can be swiftly sent to prevent failure. The usefulness of these security measures lies in the ability to alert owners and security employees of potential dangers, which can prevent death, structural damage, and unprofitability. Microsoft’s cybersecurity and cloud computing capabilities makes it a more reliable provider. With end- to-end security measures and a “privacy by design” model, large oil and gas companies can rest assured that all sensitive information circu- lating through the cloud is secure. It is proven that cloud security is more cost-efficient and reliable than spending millions of dollars securing every endpoint, WiFi connection, and Big Efficiency.
