Institutional knowledge is one of the energy industry’s most valuable assets, yet it is at constant risk of being lost through retirements, turnover, and organizational change. This masterclass explores how AI can preserve, scale, and activate that knowledge across the workforce. We will look at how captured knowledge, when paired with data, can streamline repeatable processes through AI Workflows, and how Causal Agentic AI moves beyond automation by combining expert logic and data to reason, predict, make decisions, and explain itself in context.
