How to adapt decision making in an era of digital transformation

How to adapt decision making in an era of digital transformation

Making decisions has never been easy. Perhaps surprisingly more data and technology to contend with hasn’t made it easier. While new technologies have opened up opportunities to gain fresh insights and extract more from our businesses’ information, the decision making process has changed faster than we can. It’s rapid techceleration. Wading through data to find valuable insights was previously like searching for a needle in a haystack. Analytics tools and, more recently, AI are changing this situation at breakneck speed, reshaping decision making across businesses. For instance, Gartner predicts that by 2025, 95% of decisions that use data will be at least partially automated . There is a real risk of losing control for those who aren’t ready. In a world where tech moves faster than we can think, we run the risk of acting on impulse. Snap decisions can cause fragmented ways of working and reduce standardisation – ultimately resulting in operational chaos and further clouding the decision making process. In fact, the recent Reality Check Survey highlights that this operational chaos of different processes and systems slows down decision making and action for 80% of businesses, with 76% saying that their growing tech infrastructure has made work […]

The path forward is not just about automation—it is about augmentation. AI is not replacing human expertise; it is amplifying it. Those who master this balance will define the future of oil and gas in a rapidly evolving energy landscape. Journal of Petroleum Technology Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest YouTube Show more sharing options Data Fabric Analytics Artificial Intelligence Data Science Digital Transformation In June 2019, before the seismic shift brought by the OpenAI revolution, I authored a JPT guest editorial on the oil and gas industry’s digitalization journey. I emphasized the transformative roles of the industrial internet of things (IIoT), cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI). Now, reflecting on that editorial from the vantage point of 2025, it is remarkable to witness how many predictions have materialized and how the industry has evolved beyond expectations. ¹ A Sudden Acceleration: The AI Shockwave in Oil and Gas For nearly 3 decades, technological advancements in the oil and gas industry followed an evolutionary trajectory. Each breakthrough—2D and 3D seismic imaging, horizontal and directional drilling, semisubmersibles, and permanent sensors such as microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and nanotechnology—built upon prior successes, driving incremental gains in efficiency and recovery. The ability to acquire real-time downhole data […]
