PROSPECTS OF INTELLIGENT OIL AND GAS FIELDS

Ramiz H. Shikhaliyev

The article deals with the application of intelligent technologies in oil and gas fields for solving various problems. These include the intellectualization of analysis of large amounts of data collected from oil and gas fields, the intellectualization of the drilling process, the forecast of reserves and the optimization of oil and gas production activity, the optimization of the location and management of oil and gas fields, etc. At the same time, intellectualization of oil and gas fields is impossible without the use of information technology. The intellectualization of oil and gas fields leads to an increase in the effectiveness of remote monitoring and management of oil and gas production, the accuracy of geophysical research, safety, and the reduction of structural costs and the continued competitiveness of oil companies (pp.41-47).

Keywords: oil and gas fields, artificial intelligence, intelligent technologies, information technologies, exploration and exploitation of oil and gas fields, forecast of reserves and optimization of oil and gas production activity, drilling process intellectualization.
