The Next Big Leap

摘要

Oil and gas companies have spent years cleaning up and formatting their huge datasets for processing. When that cleanup work is done, the industry will be able to apply machine learning, artificial intelligence and Big Data techniques to extract information and improve operations. And maybe even make exploration discoveries. Think of it as the magic of tidying up data. Kristina Beadle, senior consultant for Wood Mackenzie in Edinburgh, identified three key areas of advancement for oil and gas: 1. Computing power 2. Developments in artificial Intelligence and machine learning 3. Big Data.
