With oil & gas unstopping digital proliferation, the industry is in the need of technologies with capacities sufficient enough to support the ability of maintaining a constantly growing amount of data. Recent years were marked by an extensive introduction of digital and automation technologies into all sectors of the oil & gas industry. Technologies such as IoT, Big Data and Cognitive Computing have become known acquaintances to the industry experts and senior executives, and the process of implementation and development continues to move forward at unprecedented pace. However, there are even further frontiers to reach.
Special attention is given to digital technologies capable of changing the market situation completely. Roundtable 2: Digital Game-Changers is dedicated to the discussion of such technologies, namely 5G mobile communication standards and Edge computing. The low-latency 5G, capable of transmitting data practically real-time with speed exceeding that of 4G tenfold, combined with Edge computing and its potential of immediate data analysis are to be addressed as the ground breaking solutions for the industry.
