Main Conference Day 2 - February 25, 2026

11:30 AM Mapping the Field: Building Data Foundations Across Multi-Operator Assets

In this session, we explore the challenges and opportunities of applying AI in a multi-operator environment, where data from thousands of operators must be securely separated, yet intelligently connected. Raymond will share how his team is building a cloud-based data lake and partnership ecosystem to support scalable, secure, and actionable insights across regions like the Permian.

Attendees will learn how generative AI and machine learning can be used to extract patterns from diverse datasets, ranging from chemical usage and fluid dynamics to production volumes and field conditions, to create a unified view of asset behavior across operators. The session will also highlight the roadmap for real-time data sharing, the importance of foundational systems and data cleaning, and how regional modelling can unlock efficiencies that individual operators may not see alone. 

Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining Raymond.
