The 2023 edition of the Onshore Wellsite Automation Conference will be held in Houston as a hybrid live/virtual conference and exhibition on January 31 and February 1, 2023.
Since the 2022 conference, many changes have occurred, offering new opportunities and challenges.

Senior automation V.P.s and operational E.V.P.s who oversee technology implementation must stay abreast of the latest technological applications for wellsite automation, such as the newest video analytics applications or thermal imaging technologies, as well as the almost weekly influx of new innovations.

Many E&Ps are currently weighing the benefits of remote surveillance over remote control, migrating their operations to the cloud, and using technologies to manage more frequently by exception. In 2023, there will be a record number of Internet of Things applications for upstream oil and gas.

Learn From Large, Medium, And Small E&Ps

  • Learn from operators who are figuring out how to make automation pay off for key applications. Everything from improving gas lift to assisting with cost management for emissions reduction, from streamlining the workforce to resolving supply chain problems impeding project execution.

  • Find out how to leverage IoT systems and make the whole process come together to deliver value. This conference discusses all of the essential factors that must be taken into account. The purpose of adopting IoT devices is to provide data for improved decision-making, but to do so requires efficient integration of processes and software to enable accurate interpretation and sound judgment. And the culture of the entire workforce must support this. It is not always simple to implement, so we are organizing case studies that focus on how to guarantee that the entire process functions as intended.

  • Attend presentations on specific technological advancements, such as the newest cameras, video analytics, and thermal sensors, which are making enormous year-over-year advances in processing power and precision. Learn from operators who are putting new technologies to use in essential applications and successfully integrating them with cloud and wireless systems. And doing so in a cyber secure way.

  • Determine how to implement specific technologies in various settings. For instance, sensors as opposed to cameras or vice versa. Alternatively, will surveillance suffice instead of investing in a completely new remote-control system? What works best for each individual scenario?

  • Hear strategic perspectives on how EVPs of operations and automation are planning to invest in new technology to respond to the inflation reduction bill In this new ESG-conscious era, how might automation assist your organization to decrease the cost of ESG compliance and limit potential emission liabilities? Discover how to apply the most cutting-edge technologies for emissions reduction, and greenhouse gas leak detection and control.

  • Benefit from pragmatic ideas on resolving supply chain constraints, such as creative component replacement and working with suppliers to find alternative solutions.

  • Learn how to use the most recent cyber security solutions in a cost-effective manner. For Internet of Things (IoT) devices, cloud connectivity, operational technology, and control systems.

  • Learn how to optimize the workforce to operate by exception and free up employees to work on higher-value tasks

  • Spending less on labor deployment and transportation costs to outlying locations is possible with remote monitoring even if it is not fully remote controlled. Figure out how to make the decision on which technique to employ and how to implement it in the most cost-effective way.

  • Make better, more timely judgments with better data usage, which includes the most cutting-edge advanced analytics, AI, and machine learning technologies. But putting this into action in practice can be challenging. Hear about the success stories and how to maximize value from these projects.
