Advancing Deepwater Operations through Digital, AI and Automation Technologies

05 May 2027
Room 300
Panel
As deepwater developments become larger, more complex, and increasingly remote, digital technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), and automation are emerging as critical enablers of safer, more efficient, and lower-cost operations. From AI-driven production optimization and predictive maintenance to digital twins, autonomous systems, robotics, and real-time operational intelligence, these technologies are transforming how offshore assets are designed, operated, and maintained. This panel will bring together leaders from industry, technology, and academia to discuss the latest advances, lessons learned from deployment, and the opportunities and challenges associated with scaling AI in deepwater environments. The discussion will explore the convergence of cloud computing, advanced analytics, automation, and responsible AI governance, while examining how these innovations can unlock new levels of reliability, performance, and value across the deepwater sector.
