Advanced KM technology critical to fill gaps

摘要

Increased drilling activity caused by long-term, elevated oil price stability is driving technology development and new application practices and techniques at a record pace. The ability to capture, retain and transfer this "new knowledge" is gaining importance because of rapid turnover and the relocation of experienced industry professionals to high-profile projects in remote areas. Combine this scenario with the graying of the industry and the impending "big crew change," and the potential impact of lost expertise and knowledge is particularly alarming.
