Information Management - Connecting Human Capabilities to Intelligent Fields
13-16 January
Muscat, Oman
Harnessing human capabilities in a collaborative environment has become more challenging as global projects have become bigger and more complex and the industry demographics are becoming young and less experienced. These challenges require organisations’ ability to process information and transfer them to knowledge to support the core of managerial competencies in making timely, quick and sound decisions. In addition, the cooperation and/or integration with other organisations in the industry value chain are crucial for reducing uncertainty, for efficient and safe operation and for maximising return on investment.
The workshop attendees will learn more about new IM strategies by various businesses and service providers within the industry and will discover the latest ways of working, best practices in adopting and applying new technologies and how to influence changes in behaviors to capture the value of information.
Discussion leaders will focus participants on the following topics:
- Strategies, trends, and outlook in knowledge management and IM technologies
- Business information drivers and specification of the information that is required to deliver a project and to operate and maintain the facilities
- Information management workflow and portfolio of integrated tools and processes
- Business information awareness, planning, documentation, data quality, transfer, control, and security through the lifecycle of a project
- The use of portals to free business users from the 'application paradigm' - needing to know what application to use where and when, needing user id/password, URL's, training etc. (the traditional IT approach)
- Progress that has been made, what more could be done and how all the players work together to accelerate the implementation of the intelligent energy sector.
Who Should Attend
The purpose of the workshop is to promote the interaction among decision makers and the practitioners of the computational intelligence of the petroleum industry. The workshop will be of interest to project managers, business managers, asset managers and field operators from energy companies, major resource holders, technology and service providers and academia.
