This session focuses on the opportunities that Digital Data Solutions, Analytics, and Automation (DDAA) provide for enhancing marginal and mature fields in the Asia Pacific region. With the region facing the challenges of depleting reserves in conventional fields and the necessity for increased efficiency in existing assets, DDAA emerges as a key enabler for innovation and operational excellence. The session will discuss the substantial impact of DDAA on the development and enhancement of both marginal and mature fields across this region. It will present strategies for applying advanced analytics and automation to realise direct benefits, highlighting how these technologies can promote sustainable development and strengthen resilience in the Asia Pacific oil & gas sector. Additionally, the session will focus on the role of DDAA in geoscience exploration and appraisal drilling, demonstrating its effectiveness in refining operations, guiding better decision-making, and discovering new reserves, with a particular emphasis on the region's mature and marginal fields. By sharing case studies and expert insights, the session will emphasise the critical role of digital innovation in propelling the development of oil & gas fields in this region.
