Agentic AI for Oil and Gas Upstream

Abstract

Upstream operations are evolving under increasing complexity and sustainability demands. Agentic AI is redefining these operations by bringing autonomous, goal oriented intelligence directly into the field. Our intelligent agents monitor wells, predict failures, optimize injection strategies, and streamline decisions across drilling, completions, and production, reducing downtime and improving field efficiency.

By removing silos and enabling real time intervention, agentic AI enhances reliability, boosts recovery, and supports sustainability goals. This whitepaper explores how autonomous agents and hybrid intelligence deliver safer, smarter, and more profitable upstream operations.

Key Highlights

Operational Intelligence

We embed real time intelligence into upstream workflows. Our AI agents monitor wells, predict failures, and automate actions for safer, efficient operations, improving decisions and lowering risk.

Smart Waterflooding

We deliver real time insights, optimize injection rates and minimize operational disruptions. Adaptive control improves sweep efficiency, reduces flaring, and increases field uptime.

Unified Automation

Our workflow automation accelerates interventions and removes manual bottlenecks. Standardized, automated responses enable consistent, scalable field operations.

Remote Operations

With Orion, a modular, low code AI platform, we centralize monitoring, control, and automation across assets for smarter, connected operations.
