Power Hour | Building an AI Operations System for Energy Companies

​In this Power Hour, Todd Bush and Michael Cortez discuss the reality of deploying an AI-native operations system within energy companies. We explore how to move beyond basic chatbots and data lakes to build a system that connects unstructured data, structured databases, and tribal knowledge into a cohesive "deep brain" for your organization.

​We dive into real-world examples of how production engineers are using these systems to automate root cause analysis for ESP failures, generate decline curves on the fly, and identify high-ROI workover candidates. We also discuss the concept of the 4D data model, the importance of traceability in AI orchestration, and the path toward fully agentic workflows for procedures and interventions.
