报告简介：In recent years, hot topics such as digitalization, automation, artificial intelligence (AI), robots, deep learning and big data have evolved from being merely envisioned on paper to full-fledged state of the art solutions, expected to revolutionize efficiency and safety. The future of automation is all about exploiting the current state of technologies available to the entire operations. Recently, the growing interest in digital technologies coupled with new intelligent sensing technologies have resulted in an overwhelming amount of data containing useful and valuable information.

The digital and automated applications includes improving real-time decision support, enabling precise control of processes, mitigating incidents and optimizing various aspects of processes. However, to realize the full potential and develop digital, automatic and intelligent data management and analysis, and implement algorithms for efficient and safe opertions, we shall consider and investigate

• how to develop proof-of-concept technologies to support data management

• how to precisely interpret data to provide useful and valuable information

• how to transfer information to knowledge which guides engineers’ decision

• how to automate the process with interactive communications through data, information and knowledge.

In this talk, digitalization technologies research and development and their applications in automation and control systems will be present and several sucesseful case studies and examples in digitalization and automation in oil and gas field will be introduced.
