Energy sectors’ digitalization is a must in an AI world
For decades the energy industry has been plagued by volatility due to the ever-fluctuating price of oil. The result, the Oil and Gas sector clings to stability—even if that consistency means operating 50-year-old analog equipment. But as newer, greener players enter the market, these decades old technologies are becoming increasingly less competitive.
The energy industry is entering an inflection point of digitalization, data centers and artificial intelligence. For Oil and Gas to keep up, it must first implement new data strategies focused on driving digital maturity.
In this podcast you will learn:
- 01:48 – How the volatility of the Oil and Gas sector affects modernization
- 05:57 – Why the Energy sector’s digitalization lags other industries
- 09:43 – How a good data strategy unlocks the future of the Oil and Gas industry
