Digital technologies are helping to  transform the landscape for oil and gas operators as well as increase  efficiency in a time when the industry is increasingly expected to “do  more with less.”

Hege Skryseth, president of Kongsberg Digital AS—a company at the  forefront of bringing digital twin technology, in particular, to the oil  and gas industry—recently sat down with Hart Energy to  discuss leveraging digital technologies, including the benefits and  roadblocks.

“Technology is the fundamental building block to actually drive  change,” said Skryseth, who also discussed Kongsberg Digital’s recent  partnership with supermajor Royal Dutch Shell Plc that includes its new Kognitwin Energy dynamic digital twin service platform.
