DSATS Symposium at the Drilling Conference

SPECIAL EVENT – 3 March 2025

“Automation, Data and Robotics in other Industries”

New technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning have entered the market (and our lives). They demonstrate significant benefits and promise transformative change, especially for automation, yet they may also introduce new risks along with new opportunities.

How can we leverage these and other technologies? Does their emergence change our perspective and approach? Can we afford to ignore them, or should we plan to embrace them to reap the benefits? How and where should we integrate them, considering the known concerns for safety and reliability?

Three industry leading speakers will address the symposium topic from their own experiences in non-oil and gas drilling environments with the opportunity for audience Q&A after each speech.

The speakers and presentation titles are:

Autonomous Ships – Remote operations of maritime vessels, advances in new technology;

Bjørn Jalving, CTO Kongsberg Maritime

Utilizing data through AI, analytics, and MES, to enhance processes in dairy production;

Dag Madland, Senior IT/OT Advisor, TINE IT, Maintenance lead, TINE Meieriet Jæren

Resilient Robot Autonomy, Including the Cerberus Team for the DARPA Subterranean Challenge;

Dr. Kostas Alexis, Professor NTNU

Space is limited so be sure to register early which also ensures the early bird rate for members. The meeting will be followed by a sponsored reception for symposium attendees.

Event Timing on 3 March:
13:00 – 17:00: Presentations, Q&A and updates
17:00 – 19:00: Networking Reception
