emerged in other industries. Measurement,
monitoring and control have all been key
industry features since the 1950s.
Since devices have become cheaper,
with more IP addresses to identify them,
the volume of data has increased, leaving
huge data lakes untapped.
IoT devices create structured data. This overlooks
the considerable merits of unstructured data.
With such vast quantities of data available, the current
IoT value system is starting to run ‘hot’ at the analysis
stage.

5. “IoT is just collecting data. The value comes when data is used
for decision-making.”
- Johan Krebbers, IT CTO & VP TaCIT Architecture, Shell
International B.V.
This is where cognitive computing can make a crucial contribution and it is poised to
transform organisations and industries.
For the oil and gas industry the timing could not be better. To improve productivity and
agility, the oil and gas industry must address energy-price collapse, reserve
replenishment and extraction, rising resource development costs, and new safety and
environment responsibilities.

6. IoT + Cognitive = IoT C
Cognitive systems are a new technology that
applies human-like capabilities of
understanding, reasoning and learning on
data, unlocking new value by quickly addressing
seemingly unsolvable problems.
“Traditional analytics reveals patterns. Cognitive systems
create recommendations.”

9. Use case examples
Predict incidents
One company saved $250 million a year in
downtime losses by using a cognitive system to
combine drill-sensor data and unstructured data to
predict stuck drill-bit incidents. Prediction
confidence: 34–74% within a 3-hour window
Mitigate weather risks
Companies operating in arctic conditions are
successfully using weather patterns, sea-ice flow,
aircraft, satellite, radar, drone and historical data
to predict the optimum times to drill. An
emergency management centre used weather
data to safely guide staff around fumes driven by
high winds.
Draw on experience
By applying data from a previously resolved
incident, new engineers, using a data corpus
of experienced engineer information, are
able to solve new problems such as
deterring birds from oil platforms.
Recognise similarities
A cognitive system helped to identify
commonalities in reservoirs in extraction and
production, based on similar examples, helping to
make a timely, informed decision, which in turn
supported a successful licence-agreement bid.
Analyse proactively
Companies using predictive analytics can spot
anomalies in the data flow before thresholds
are reached. Cognitive computing can take
this further by learning new behaviours and
trends.
Enhance maintenance operations
Cognitive systems can recognise a failing asset
and demonstrate the ‘next best action’ to
engineers via augmented reality devices. These
devices can provide all the information stored
on that asset from multiple sources.
10. Of oil and gas executives familiar with cognitive computing …
... believe that it will have a critical
impact on the future of their business
... believe that it will play a disruptive role
in the oil and gas industry
... are likely to invest in cognitive in
future
11. Ask yourself ….
• What other data (including unstructured elements) am I not leveraging? If converted
to knowledge, how could I better meet key objectives and requirements?
• What is the associated cost to my organisation of not having the full array of
possible options to consider when decisions and actions are being made?
• What benefit could I gain from detecting patterns locked away in unstructured data
by combining it with structured elements? How would this accelerate innovation,
production or performance?
• What would change if I could equip every employee to be as effective as the leading
expert in that position or field?
“The crucible of market forces will drive the adoption of cognitive
capability in our industry”
- David Womack, Director of Strategy, IBM Chemicals & Petroleum industries
12. Summary
IoT has created considerable operational value for oil and gas companies. The industry has become
overloaded with a vast volume of data, drawn from millions of sensors.
With experienced employees leaving the industry, the need to capture and transfer their expertise for
the next wave of employees has never been greater.
Cognitive systems have the ability to understand structured and unstructured data to make the kind of
timely, complex decisions that add value.
Cognitive systems will help companies realise the full potential of IoT by delivering deeper insights in a
more timely way than ever before. The capacity of such systems to understand, reason, learn and make
prescriptive recommendations will help the industry ‘buy time’ – a commodity more valuable than oil
itself.
It will be the industry’s forward thinkers who will harness the power of Cognitive IoT to shape their
companies’ future.

13. About the research
In this research we set out to understand the opportunities that Internet of Things technologies can
offer the oil and gas industry, specifically the additional value of cognitive technologies. We wanted to
learn from examples, exploring the challenges and learnings shared by early adopters through three
key data sources:
• In-depth interviews with 24 IBM subject-matter experts (SMEs), who regularly consult and advise clients across the
oil and gas industry, in the USA, Europe, China and Brazil
• Client interviews and testimonials from a number of oil and gas companies
• A 2015 study completed by the IBM Institute for Business Value in collaboration with The Economist Intelligence Unit
entitled ‘A New Natural Resource: Your cognitive future in the oil and gas industry’.
