Artificial Intelligence Will Increase the Efficiency of Monitoring Oil and Gas Fields from Space
Gazprom Neft and Gazprom Space Systems intend to develop technologies for analyzing geospatial data using artificial intelligence, satellite systems and aerial monitoring. An agreement on cooperation in this area was signed at the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum.
Companies are exploring the possibility of creating digital twins of oil and gas field infrastructure based on neural network processing of information on observations of the Earth’s surface from space (including from the promising Smotr remote sensing satellites).
Thanks to the introduction of artificial intelligence, Gazprom Space Systems will further increase the accuracy of calculations and forecasting when providing geoinformation services to Gazprom Group enterprises and other partner companies. The use of neural networks will speed up the analysis of aerospace data, increase the detail of digital cartographic models and provide new functionality for their use.
“By combining the competencies of our companies, we will be able to develop services based on aerospace data and artificial intelligence. They will allow you to make more effective decisions when conducting geological exploration, development and operation of oil and gas fields. Our technologies will also expand the capabilities for regular environmental monitoring of the regions of the Far North. In the future, these solutions may be in demand not only by the oil and gas industry, but also by many other sectors of the Russian economy,” Alexander Dyukov, General Director of Gazprom Neft.
