Oil and gas already does a hell of a lot of computing, and invests heavily in supercomputing facilities. [0] I'm not too familiar with the domain, but looking at abstracts of conferences like the Oil & Gas HPC Workshop [1] might give you some idea of the work already being done in those fields. It's entirely possible that machine learning techniques could be used as well as modeling and simulation for these problems. (They may be already! But my limited expose suggests they're mostly doing traditional HPC.) But you'd probably need to be a petroleum expert already, not just someone with machine learning expertise living in an O&G hub.[2] [0] Just an example: http://www.aiche.org/chenected/2012/12/bp-building-new-houst... [1] http://rice2014.og-hpc.org/ [2] Apologies, btw, if you are a petroleum expert who's just frustrated by a lack of machine learning in the industry. :) |
