Digital technologies are rapidly transforming every aspect of oil and gas value chains. New tools are being leveraged to help drive down costs, improve efficiencies and disrupt legacy business models and strategies. Covid-19 and volatile market conditions have only accelerated the importance of laying down the digital groundwork for future value creation.

Petroleum Economist, in association with Publicis Sapient, hosted a PE Live webcast to explore the outcomes of our extensive survey of industry leaders. You can download a summary of the results HERE. ​​Respondents identified the technologies that they believe have the greatest impact and the main barriers to further adoption, among many other themes.

This webinar unpicked the central findings of the survey and used them as a springboard to a wider conversation surrounding digitalisation in oil and gas. The expert panel discussed the impact of Covid-19 on the appetite for digitalisation, the importance of digital investment amid the volatile oil and gas market, the greatest ROI opportunities in midstream and downstream sectors, barriers and risks to digital transformation projects, case studies of successful implementation.
