"Peak oil, scarcity, and rising prices? No, the energy industry is
in a new era of abundance and price pressure. In Bits, Bytes, and
Barrels, the authors give valuable context and advice on how
digital technologies are mandatory tools for progressive energy
leaders to turn disruptive challenges into a generational
opportunity."
Peter Tertzakian, executive director, ARC Energy Research
Institute"Bits, Bytes, and Barrels comprehensively lays out the
issues and opportunities for digital technologies in the energy
business. This book is full of examples where digital is making a
bottom line impact for companies and it provides pathways for how
companies might proceed in their own digital strategies. The
authors have taken a very technical and complex subject and made it
clear and understandable--a great handbook for executives and IT
professionals alike!"
Brian Truelove, former SVP and CIO, Hess Corporation"Technology,
innovation, and business model changes are impacting industry at a
rapid pace--yet in some cases, not fast enough. Bits, Bytes, and
Barrels is an excellent primer on existing and future innovation
levers that the energy sector can incorporate to improve
adaptability and competitiveness. Important reading for Boards, the
C-suite, and those looking to understand how technology can move
the needle or stand-up effective internal innovation. I highly
recommend this book."
Samantha Stuart, vice president, strategy and corporate
development, TransCanada"Bits, Bytes and Barrels offers a candid
discussion of not only the potential uses for digital, but also the
possible pitfalls of poorly implemented projects. The numerous
examples explored were enlightening and offered proof points why
companies should act. It is a welcomed perspective that should be
helpful to those who are considering greater deployment of digital
technology in their organizations."
Tom Muecke, retired after 40 years in upstream research and
operations at a US Supermajor"This is a timely, well-researched,
practical, and insightful book that plugs a much-needed gap in the
market. If you are looking for a one-stop shop that brings together
key digital themes and ideas in oil and gas in one place, then this
is it--highly recommended."
