Join us to learn how generative AI, Large Language Models, and machine learning are giving geoscientists and engineers the tools to accelerate the time to “first oil,” make more accurate maps and reservoir models, and more quickly develop other subsurface uses, including geothermal, CCUS, energy storage, critical minerals, geologic hydrogen, and more. We need geoscientists, now more than ever, to make this work.
Who Should Attend?
This event is ideal for geoscientists, engineers, data scientists, business development professionals, technology innovators.
What You’ll Learn
You will learn how to develop your super-powers, and how to create the best types of teams to achieve the outcomes you need, whether it be from exploring in new frontiers, to better developing existing reservoirs and gearing up for new subsurface use cases.
If you’re fairly new to AI, we’ll start by having a review of what’s under the hood, which will include data types, formats, meta-tags, large language models, foundation models, training, the difference between AI and machine learning, and deep learning, algorithms, programming languages, and more. You’ll learn how and why this knowledge comes into play as you are introduced to the members of teams, and learn more about the important role of the geoscientist – the domain expert.
We will take a deep dive into what AI can do for you, now and in the near future. We’ll also review the limitations of AI and learn from people with hands-on experience about what they were able to do with AI in subsurface energy.
We’ll also dig into data sets, including seismic, petrophysics, well logs, production information, geographic information systems, and more and show how they are used in AI and machine learning applications. What is the best way to make sure your data is fit for use? Where can you find it, and what are ways to save time and money? Included will be reviews of data repositories, cloud-based applications, getting data in a format you can use, and testing the results. In each case, we’ll go over why a geoscientist must be at the heart of all if it, and how the geoscientist will help assure accuracy, rapid results, and better economics.
