Demand and Trends in Oil & Gas

**Research from Rystad Energy **shows that oil demand will continue to rise in the medium term. Despite the growth in the adoption of electric vehicles and other initiatives to reduce dependence on oil, many sectors continue to require this resource due to its high energy density and operational advantages.

In this scenario, technology becomes a crucial tool to optimize operations in oil fields. Technological innovations can help improve extraction efficiency, reduce costs and minimize environmental impact. Emerging technologies that are transforming the sector include:

- Advanced Monitoring Systems: Real-time monitoring systems allow for more precise supervision of field operations, facilitating early detection of problems and making informed decisions to optimize production.

**- Improved Drilling Technologies: **More advanced drilling techniques, such as horizontal drilling and next-generation fracking technologies, have revolutionized oil extraction, allowing access to previously unreachable reserves and improving resource recovery.

**- Automation and Digitalization: **Integrating digital technologies and automation into oil operations not only increases efficiency, but also improves safety by reducing the need for human intervention in potentially hazardous environments.

- Use of Drones and Imaging Technology: Drones and advanced imaging technologies such as artificial intelligence analysis offer new ways to inspect and maintain infrastructure in deposits, making it easier to monitor equipment and identify areas that require attention.

As demand for oil continues to rise, emerging technology and optimization of field operations will be essential to balance current energy needs with long-term sustainability goals.
