About
Digitalization for the geoscience community. New digital tools and applications can be effort multipliers in our quest to find and develop oil & gas prospects in order to meet the energy demands of tomorrow.
Why?
We are witnessing significant hesitancy in embracing these opportunities. DIGEX 2022 addresses these challenges by breaking down language barriers and laying a foundation for trust in the tools and applications through the presentation of case studies, key learnings, and best practices.
For whom?
Geoscientists working within the subsurface domain in the oil & gas industry.
- Oil companies
- Service companies
- Authorities
- Research and educational institutions
Welcome
4th edition of #DIGEX - The Digital Subsurface
#DIGEX 2022 is a hybrid event. It is the conference on digitalization for the geoscience community and surrounding industries. At the conference, we look at how digital technology is enabling the oil & gas industry to change the way geoscientists work, across teams, companies and license partners.
New digital tools and applications can be an effort multiplier in our quest to find and develop oil & gas prospects in order to meet the energy demands of tomorrow, yet we are witnessing significant hesitancy in embracing these opportunities in the geoscience community. At DIGEX 2022 we are addressing these challenges and try to bridge the gap between the geoscience community and "digitalisation community" by "demystifying" digitalisation, breaking down language barriers and laying a foundation for trust in how these technologies (AI/ML, advanced analytics) process data.
This year, companies will present case studies and concrete examples of how they are embracing the possibilities in digitalization and how they are changing their workflows and approach to the entire value chain from a subsurface perspective.
DIGEX attracts geoscientists working within the subsurface domain in the oil & gas industry
