The year 2022 can only be described as “turbulent” for the oil & gas industry.

Even as E&P companies globally are bouncing back from pandemic-era activity levels, a surge in covid cases have resulted in new lockdowns in Asia. The pressure of constrained oil supplies (due to production cuts from OPEC and the on-going conflict in Ukraine) have clashed with ongoing fears of a global recession and reduced demand. How much E&Ps are investing in new production capacity has gained political urgency in North America and Europe.

So what does the industry do when the need for innovation as a hedge against uncertainty is high? They turn to Darcy Partners for insight into the changing technology landscape.

Join Darcy Partners in our “Best of 2022” Drilling and Completion forum on January 25th (10am CST) as we delve into the top 10 technology providers who have helped our member companies through the ups and downs of the past year. Come hear the analysis of our research team as we discuss what technology solutions have gained traction in the oil and gas landscape, the on-going concerns of E&P companies going into 2023, and to help set the research and forum priorities of the upcoming year.

If you are unable to attend the forum, please still consider filling out this survey on what research priorities Darcy Partners should focus on in 2023

Technology innovators highlighted as 2022’s “10 Best” include (in no particular order):

• AI driller: An advanced drilling analytics and business intelligence platform that leverages AI and machine learning to solve drilling problems with data
• Cherry labs: Combining computer vision and machine learning, Cherry Labs has created a tool that automatically identifies complex human behaviors in raw video to improve worker safety
• Factor Technology: An automated geosteering advisor that computes reliable geosteering interpretations and provides real-time advice to the rig
• Automated Rig Technologies: ART enables a fully-automated process to run jointed pipe at the speed of coil, taking workers out of the line of fire
• ShearFrac: Real-time fracture diagnostics that use wellhead pressure measurements to maximize the effective fracture surface area
• DarkVision: An acoustic-based imaging platform that allows operators to “see” inside their wells even through dense OBMs
• Cold Bore Technology: Provides the world’s first on-site Completions Master Control System (CMCS) and cloud platform to connect and track all on-site services
• Imperative Chemical: A specialty oilfield chemical provider with a novel pore throat investigation process that allows for a full understanding of fluid flow, skin damage, and the rock/fluid interface
• dipoleDigital: A start-up focused on well monitoring, pump down, and wireline data management
• Emerald Surf: Engineered low-density fluids capable of providing drilling mud rheologies without the use of bentonite or other suspended solids

If you are not with an E&P Operator, we thank you for your interest but this session is limited to Operators. Oil & Gas technology providers can be considered to present to our E&P member group at a future session by creating a company profile on our platform.

All others are welcome to create an individual account to receive our weekly technical digest of industry trends and information on future events.
