#OPEXOG Summit Day One - Wednesday November 4

2:00 PM From Wellhead to Pipeline: Preparing Operations for a More Connected Energy Future

Williams operates one of the most connected natural gas networks in the United States, moving about a third of the nation's gas across more than 32,000 miles of pipeline. The Williams network is growing rapidly due to increased demand and M&A. The information needed to operate the network is historically spread across specialized systems, documents and people. This talk, presented by Kate Clark of Williams (Co-presented by Falkor) at the IQPC Operational Excellence Summit on November 4, will present how bringing the operational context together is an important next step for operational excellence in Gas & Processing for Williams.

Drawing on a completed proof of concept in the Haynesville, Williams and Falkor will share what it takes to create connected operational context and where the business value is likely to be. The central lesson is that a strong data foundation comes first. The opportunity is to scale the business value and extend that foundation across the network where it pays off, and put intelligence where the work happens so people make better operational and business decisions.
