In this week's Newsletter...

Dear member,

As the oil and gas sector undergoes a transformative shift, maintaining operational integrity and efficiency, while preparing for the impact of data and Artificial Intelligence (AI), is crucial for leaders and organizations aiming for long-term success.

In this week’s newsletter, we’re excited to share an exclusive interview with Joshua Holtz, Data Science Manager at Dow, on How AI and Data Science are Elevating Operational Excellence in oil and gas. Read as Joshua shares his expert opinion on the evolution of data science and offers advice for organizations looking to transition to a more data-centric approach. 

Joshua will also be speaking on ‘Artificial Intelligence: Balancing Innovation and Risk’ at our upcoming 15th Annual Operational Oil & Gas Summit in Houston, from November 5-8. Join him to learn more about the impact of data science on industry operations, including key AI applications like time series forecasting, computer vision, and Gen AI.

Additionally, the second article in our Damage Mechanism Reviews series is now live, and includes a comprehensive DMR framework for process plants: The Second Benefit of Damage Mechanism Reviews. Discover how DMRs significantly enhance the effectiveness of compliance with engineering-intensive PSM elements, leading to improvements in efficiency and cost savings.

Until next time,

Maryam
