Featured collaborator course · OptiField
From uncertainty to defensible decisions.
An OptiField and MaestroOS™ workshop on turning uncertain asset data and AI-generated advice into capital decisions your organisation can defend.
Teams work with public field data to frame alternatives, test uncertainty and value of information, and defend a capital allocation with asset leadership on the final day.

Practical sessions for leaders and teams making operational and investment decisions. View each brochure for the full course outline.
Deciding what to fix first
A practical workshop for integrity, maintenance and turnaround teams prioritising work within limited budgets and outage windows. Teams test inspection value, cost of delay and late changes to the plan.
Reading an AI recommendation
A vendor-neutral session on challenging model-generated recommendations before funding action. Trace the data and assumptions, test the weak link and ask what evidence could change the decision.
AI assisted Decommissioning of energy assets
Prioritise and sequence decommissioning work for onshore and offshore energy assets. Teams use a late-life asset case to compare options, test cost and schedule assumptions, and challenge AI-assisted recommendations with evidence, system dependencies, risk and uncertainty.
AI assisted production optimisation
Use a prepared Volve field case to screen production opportunities, compare interventions and test how uncertainty changes priorities. The workshop connects well performance, reservoir evidence and intervention economics, with AI-assisted scenario comparisons supporting an action plan teams can defend and review.
