The 7th Annual IoT in Oil & Gas Conference, the world’s largest focused IoT in Oil & Gas event, returned in-person in Houston, and virtually, on September 15-16, 2021. The Conference once again brought together its ever-increasing community of stakeholders, including operators, service companies, EPCs, drilling companies and technology solution providers. Attendees were able to debate the crucial challenges, issues and emerging trends shaping the digital transformation of oil & gas.

The imperative of decarbonization as well as the dual-shocks of the global pandemic and oil price collapse has increased the urgency for operators to fast-track their  digital transformation programs.

Automation, sensors, digital twins, AI, drones - all reduce operating costs and aide in reducing carbon footprints, crucial to surviving the present and thriving in the future. 

In today’s oil & gas environment, leading operators are looking for strategies to maximize efficiencies and protect the bottom line. This industry can no longer just focus on short-term cost-cutting exercises; there must be investment in emerging technologies and digital transformation in order to survive.
