Mentioned in 8 AI use cases across 2 industries
Chevron uses an AI system to study millions of well and geology data points so engineers can better predict how a new well will perform and choose better places and designs for drilling.
AI compares a current well or operation to the best similar past jobs and shows teams what good performance should look like.
AI watches drilling data in real time and helps crews choose better drilling settings so wells are drilled faster, safer, and with fewer costly mistakes.
Before a fracking job is run, the AI twin tries many design options in software and suggests the fracture design most likely to boost production for the lowest practical cost.
An AI system learns the best next well to drill by looking at what has already been discovered in the reservoir, instead of following one fixed drilling plan from the start.
Think of AI in oil and gas as a super-smart control room operator that never sleeps. It constantly watches wells, pipes, and equipment data, predicts when something will break, and suggests how to squeeze more oil and gas out of the ground at lower cost and risk.
