PNEC 2014 Recap: Dealing With The ‘Big Data’ Crisis
I attended the 18th International Conference on Petroleum Data Integration, Information and Data Management (commonly known as the “PNEC” conference) on May 20-22, 2014. As I reflected on the various papers and talks, it was clear that “Big Data” is both a significant challenge and an amazing opportunity for upstream oil and gas. I was inspired by a talk on the topic of Big Data and it got me thinking about how you actually go about unlocking the power of Big Data.
