EAGE NEWS 2020


We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.

This quote by Alan Turing is today as relevant as when it was originally ushered, especially when applied to computer sciences. The role of A.I. and machine learning on geoscience and engineering is only just getting started. In order to stay on top of EAGE’s projects and events on this, we are launching this new dedicated newsletter. Jump on board and make sure to keep in the know!

Define Future of Energy at EAGE Digital 2020


A new era has begun. Digitalization means change in every industry and enterprise, for everyone. Maintaining the status quo is not an option and rigid organizations will face difficult times. Your participation in this conference is an important step towards recognizing the challenge and getting ready for potential solutions. The First EAGE Digitalization Conference and Exhibition will run from 30 November to 3 December in Vienna, Austria and will support digitalization by harnessing learnings from the energy and other industries, by addressing three major topics: Leadership, Technology and Business.

Step Into Data Science through EAGE Interactive Online Short Courses


Applying machine learning to our workflows in petrophysics, rock physics, seismic processing, reservoir characterization, etc. results in more speed, efficiency and consistency over traditional methods of data analysis. Through this course, entry-level practitioners are invited to explore the basic principles of machine learning and some of the most widely used algorithms, familiarizing with the flexibility of coding in Python. You can join this hands-on training online on 24-25 September with Dr. Ehsan Naeini.
