The ongoing global pandemic has exacerbated the challenges faced by oil and gas companies. More so than ever before technology is taking centre stage in the transformation of organisational capabilities.
The Future Oil and Gas Technology Summit, which took place virtually between 24-25 March 2021, brought together the regional stakeholders in this essential industry to explore the ways in which technology will impact the immediate and long term future.
The Summit covered a range of topics from digitalisation, automation, cybersecurity and asset integrity.
HKA Director, Julian Haslam-Jones, discussed how historical data mapping helps parties mitigate future risk on projects.
