Digital Transformation in the Energy Sector

The energy sector has the world’s largest supply chain. The complexity of energy systems grows nonlinearly with the number of elements, the scale, and the level of interconnectivity, requiring a system-based approach for implementing a successful digital transformation program.

Digital Transformation can create infinite value across the energy value chain, including upstream, midstream, and downstream. Successful energy companies can accelerate digital transformation by focusing on adopting digital workflow processes and schemes to deploy emerging digital technologies, including Cloud Computing, Big Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT). As energy firms shift paradigms towards greener, cleaner operations, effective digital transformation becomes necessary to tackle old and new challenges facing operators, service providers and consumers.

This 5-day interactive Digital Transformation in the Energy Sector training course will facilitate the delegates with innovative digital energy and optimisation methods. Also, the delegates will gain first-hand exposure to novel opportunities arising from the convergence of information technology and operational technology in energy generation and distribution operations while honing the digital engineering skills required to leverage the capabilities of the fourth industrial revolution. Delegates will study energy informatics use cases to capture lessons learned and embark on forward-looking opportunities.
