Semantic Web technologies are attracting a lot of attention these days. The University of Stavanger has recognised this trend and has initiated, this academic year, a Master program titled “Semantic Web Technologies and Integrated Services”. The course leader, Pål Ellingsen, has invited Kadme to present its view of the practical implications that these technologies could have in the oil and gas industry. |
Vasily Borisov, PhD in Geophysics and Technologies Director in Kadme, has given on Wed 10th October, a lecture titled “Semantic Web developments for the upstream Oil & Gas industry”.
