A pioneering application of artificial intelligence at Woodside Energy is finally ready for wider deployment in oil and gas.

I learned about this use case back in 2016, at APPEA’s annual conference in Perth, where Woodside’s data science team presented their work. Surprisingly, few companies bothered to replicate this innovation, even though it was both proven and easy to execute.

Many oil and gas facilities have been in production for decades, and want to be in production for decades more.

Not only do these assets handily outlast their designers, but they’re now outlasting their maintenance engineering staff, operations, logistics managers, and key suppliers. In short, the complete original workforce.

But the oil and gas industry has long relied on the memory of its people to recall critical information about its assets, information beyond the kinds of data easily found in modern systems. Answers to questions like “why did we design it this way”, and “have we encountered this problem before” depend on the memories of workers.

Oil and gas companies cannot reliably use ChatGPT, as it was trained on the whole of the internet, and is a mix of fact and fiction, science and religion, truth and lies, and faulty logic. However, training a private version of ChatGPT unlocks a huge use case that was proven many years ago.

Safe operations in industries like oil and gas, water utilities, and construction are a non-negotiable priority. However, achieving these high safety standards often creates inefficiencies, as organizations adopt low-error tolerance systems and time-intensive compliance processes. Field teams face growing pressure to balance safety, productivity, and quality, while adapting to emerging challenges like digitization and net-zero goals. As these demands intensify, field operations continue to struggle with outdated approaches. Excessive paperwork, lack of real-time visibility, and disjointed communication between field teams and managers result in unnecessary downtime, missed opportunities, and increased operational costs. How can industries modernize field operations to meet these high safety and performance standards while driving efficiency? In this episode, I’m joined by Karl Simons, Chief Futurist at FYLD, to explore how AI-driven solutions are revolutionizing field operations. FYLD’s platform uses visual analytics, natural language processing, and predictive reasoning to digitize fieldwork, automate reporting, and deliver actionable insights. Some of the questions we discuss include: • How can industries overcome safety and productivity challenges in field operations? • What role do AI-powered tools like visual analytics and predictive reasoning play in modernizing operations? • How does digitization support organizations in achieving net-zero goals? • What are the key barriers to adopting AI solutions in field operations, and how can they be addressed?

The energy sector is undergoing a seismic shift, driven by advancements in geospatial technology and the unrelenting evolution of digital innovation. Traditional geotech methods are giving way to LiDAR, GPS, drone and satellite imagery, and the industry now collects more data than ever before. But how do you make sense of this crazy data-rich landscape while holding to the oil and gas ideals of accuracy, efficiency, and safety? Adding to this data overload challenge are the siloed information holdings and the need for skilled professionals who can interpret and leverage geospatial insights. From pipeline monitoring to asset management, the applications of these tools are becoming table stakes, not nice-to-haves. To be competitive, today's energy companies need to rethink how they manage geospatial data, build up predictive analytics, and break through organizational barriers to data sharing. In this episode, I speak with Lonnie Upton, an account manager at NV5 and a seasoned expert in geospatial data for oil and gas. Lonnie shares his journey from field surveying to becoming a leader in the use of cutting-edge remote sensing technologies. Together, we discuss how geospatial tools are driving efficiency, improving safety, and reshaping operations. Some of the questions we explore include: • What problems do technologies like LiDAR and AI-powered tools solve in the energy sector? • How can organizations overcome challenges of data overload and departmental silos? • What steps should companies take to ensure data quality and real-time decision-making? • Why is geospatial data a key driver for the future of energy operations? If you're unfamiliar with how geotech can make a difference, you'll really appreciate this episode on the potential of geospatial technology and its impact on the future of energy. #NV5 #geospatial #GIS #digitaloilfield #O&G #oil&gas Reference Links For NV5 🖥️ website: NV5 📇 Linkedin: Lonnie Upton 🖥️ LinkedIn: NV5 Additional Tools & Resources From Geoffrey 🎬 Go backstage and check out my studio: 👉 https://geoffreycann.com/resources/ 🎓 Take my one day digital strategy training course for oil and gas: 👉 https://www.udemy.com/course/digital-...

#ETRM #CTRM One of the last remaining domains of energy yet to fully embrace the cloud is Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM). Despite the key role it plays, the broader oil and gas sector (producers, supply houses, traders, agents) cling to old legacy ETRM systems—clunky, costly, and a pain to integrate into complex application portfolios. Trading is a high stakes game with few users, and the risk of modernizing these systems is very worrisome. However, the energy sector is now overdue to tackle ETRM, driven by rapid changes in commodity markets and global geopolitics. The emergence of new commodities such as renewables and the realignment of supply chains because of sanctions and conflicts, really requires systems that can adapt quickly and efficiently. Legacy ETRM systems, rigid and isolated, struggle to cope with these new realities. Cloud-based solutions, however, offer the agility to address rapid growth in renewables and the complexity of modern energy trading. In this episode I speak with Sameer Soleja, the Founder and CEO of Molecule, who set out to disrupt this stagnant landscape. Sameer launched a new ETRM solution that improves the user experience through an emphasis on ease of use, automation, and reliability.

Oil and gas managers often view every decision as high-stakes and irreversible, but in the digital world, not all choices carry that weight. Jeff Bezos’s concept of “Type One” (irreversible) and “Type Two” (reversible) decisions offers a powerful framework for rethinking decision-making in the energy sector. While some digital investments—like SCADA integrations or major cybersecurity upgrades—are genuine Type One decisions requiring caution, many can be structured to minimize risk. In this episode, I explore practical approaches like pilots, modular designs, and SaaS solutions that help reframe digital investments as low-risk, high-reward opportunities. By distinguishing between true Type One decisions and those that only seem that way, oil and gas companies can accelerate adoption cycles, manage risk effectively, and unlock value faster.

With your company being acquired, what happens to the digital innovation you helped pioneer? Sadly, its days may be numbered. The unfortunate fate of digital innovations in the oil and gas industry following acquisitions is really depressing. Even groundbreaking technologies—despite their proven value—are often tossed to the curb by acquiring companies and their old-guard leaders. The structural and cultural barriers that stifle innovation in oil and gas can kill off winning ideas without remorse. That's the story in this episode--the rise and fall of a remarkable digital transformation program that unlocked huge value for a company on the brink, but was left behind after an acquisition by a more traditional player in the industry. Fortunately, I share the steps digital innovators must take to safeguard their work and survive in an acquisition. Sometimes the upside can be huge.

Stitching a new energy trading and risk management (ETRM) system into a modern systems environment is a substantial and risky undertaking. ETRM as a business function is notably complicated and the challenges an integrator faces are legion. Energy trading is perhaps the most complicated of all of the various functional areas one encounters in the oil and gas industry. It is a high risk, high stakes, high cost, highly dynamic, complex function with strong ties into operations and finance, relatively few actual transactions, and carried out by a small number of people who have deep industrial insight. What could go wrong? The successful integrator will promote an open and collaborative environment for the multiple technology and business teams to address the many integration challenges. While the stakes are high, the benefits of a well-designed and executed integration are well worth the investment.

Are you curious how the European Union’s Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) might impact the global oil and gas industry? It will indirectly, thankfully, but in a specific instance and for a specific fuel type, very directly. The fuels industry is on a mad rush to decarbonize its fuel products, under pressure from regulators and customers both of whom are seeking fuels that produce far fewer damaging emissions. One way to decarbonize fuels is through the development and adoption of sustainable fuels that are produced by converting biomass (such as corn, sugar cane, soy, rapeseed, straw, wood chips) into ethanol, bio diesel, and sustainable aviation fuel. Bio fuels, the product of converting biomass to a fuel, is the fuels industry’s answer to the circular economy. Biomass is basically a vector to recycle atmospheric CO2, by first converting C02 into plants (Nature’s contribution), then turning the plants into bio fuel (a humankind speciality), and burning the biofuel as energy, releasing the CO2 back into the atmosphere where it then is converted back into a plant. Bio fuels, depending on their origins, fall into the category of derivative products for the purposes of the EUDR. A clever way to track and trace the provenance of a specific fuel product, including one that is blended, traded, and stored, is to accompany the product with a digital passport or record of the life of the bio fuel.

Suicide is a significant and overlooked issue in various industries. Among the sectors most affected are construction and trades, installation, maintenance and repairs, and agriculture, particularly for men. These fields face high stress, long hours, and job insecurity, which can contribute to mental health struggles. Within oil and gas, the reliance on construction and skilled trades to build infrastructure links this sector closely with some of the highest suicide rates. Many oil and gas workers hail from farming backgrounds. In recent years, there has been a noticeable shift in workplace attitudes toward mental health, with younger leaders increasingly recognizing its connection to overall performance and safety. This change has led to a stronger demand for mental health initiatives, particularly in high-risk industries. By building basic suicide prevention skills across these sectors, workplaces can become more prepared and supportive. Offering employees and managers the tools to recognize warning signs and engage in compassionate conversations is a crucial step in addressing mental health challenges and preventing potential crises before they escalate. My guest, Tara Adams , is a specialist in workplace health and wellness with a focus on the highest-risk industries for suicide. Taking a pragmatic, hands-on approach, Tara provides training and coaching to help businesses create safer workplace environments where suicide prevention is a priority. By making these skills accessible through remote and mobile training, she aims to equip employees with the confidence to support their peers and foster a culture of care and awareness.

Successful change management in oil and gas is dependent on having the right mindset about the change. Many years ago, I was involved in implementing a new computer system for a remote field office. The managers assured us that all they needed to do to guarantee a successful implementation was to order the employees by memo to use the system. Change management? Tick. We dutifully couriered to the field office a laptop with the system installed, which was returned to us a couple of days later, crushed flat and with freshly laid-down tire marks visible on the cover. So much for management’s efforts to win over hearts and minds. Change management rarely considers the mindset of those driving change and those expected to embrace change, which inevitably brings conflict to the adoption process. How people show up matters. In this podcast I interview Jeff Perry , a leadership and career expert who helps individuals, teams, and organizations unlock their potential in all facets of life. Given his background in engineering, business, and leadership, he specializes in working with engineering and technical professionals, but the principles he shares are universal.

It's never been easy for energy products to demonstrate they are sustainable because such products are not easily traceable through the supply chain. Commodity products such as energy, plastics, carbon, and fuels are fungible, voluminous, and blended with each other. The supply chains are not segregated, leading to possible cross contamination when a sustainable fuel passes through infrastructure that is shared with traditional fossil fuels. However, regulatory efforts are putting pressure on organizations to address this using new digital solutions, leveraging machine generated data, blockchain trusted ledgers, cloud computing, and analytics. Concepts like digital passports that accompany physical cargos allow supply chain participants to track the movements of cargos and trace their chain of custody from feedstock to the consumer, and back through the waste stream as they reenter the manufacturing loop. These ideas do not apply solely to fuels. Minerals such as lithium, which have very high value and are recyclable, are also benefiting from passports that provide assurance that the minerals are responsibly sourced and properly handled. One of the key technologies that the energy industry uses for this purpose is called Marco, a kind of middleware technology for digital ledgers that provides for easy solution building. In this interview, I speak with Noslen Suárez , account executive with Finboot , on how Finboot's solutions allow petroleum, petrochemical, and energy companies deliver sustainable products.

Managers in oil and gas rely on various rules of thumb to accelerate decision making, but at times these biases get in the way of making better decisions. Biases that were at one time helpful are now a kind of risk. Examples include the emphasis on production above all else, the preference for proven over novel solutions, and the preference for those innovations that originate in the industry. These lingering biases explain why the fortunes of oil and gas companies now dramatically lag the index leaders whose market values are now in the trillions. Correcting for these biases is not hard, but it does take concerted effort, particularly using some change management tactics. When times are stable, biases are perhaps a convenient way to facilitate decisions and gain unanimity at the management table. However, the industry is facing far greater complexity than in the past, and such biases are now a risk to be managed.

Imagine that the year is 2034. How will the world of oil be digitally different from the way things are in 2024? Some things won't have changed much. Demand will still be strong. We will still be consuming a lot of oil. This is baked in. There is plenty of supply. Costs will have crept up but productivity will more than make up for that. Digital will have utterly transformed how we run the industry thanks to: the circular economy and full life cycle monitoring of our assets digital twin solutions for optimizing production and operations remote control, robots and automation that take out human workers cloud solutions that make everything online all the time mobile connectivity to all mobile people and gear voice interfaces whereever possible. The future is coming quicker than we think. Preparing for it costs no more than running a few trials of a small number of innovations.

Digital Innovations in Oil and Gas with Geoffrey Cann

Digital entrepreneurs face many worrisome perils, and oil and gas poses its own unique set. In my view, the single greatest challenge facing technology companies when dealing with oil and gas is the lack of a clear pathway from the outset of the relationship to scaling up or gaining an enterprise commitment to adoption. The level of fragmentation of decision making inside oil and gas means that a lot of managers get to weigh in on technology that might impact their unit. But for the technology company, that fragmentation also translates into heroically long decision cycles, long waits between meetings, and time spent unproductively helping decision makers get to a decision. Slow cash payment cycles hurt the economics. Change management isn't seen as valuable. The industry shies away from any publicity, even the positive kind that helps digital innovators. It's all about the culture.
