How does a company stay ahead in one of the world’s most demanding industries? For Rapid App Werks, staying ahead means understanding the most common industry challenges––all while staying on the cutting edge of technology.
Joining forces with top industry players at the 15th Annual Operational Excellence in Oil & Gas Summit, held from November 5-8, 2024, in Houston is Rapid App Werks. The summit was a stage for exploring groundbreaking advancements and showcased solutions that directly address the oil and gas sector’s challenges and foster sustainable growth within the industry.
This annual summit drew over 300 senior executives and thought leaders, featuring thought-provoking keynotes, including a fireside chat with IBM representatives on optimizing asset performance. Leaders from Shell, Chevron, Equinor, and Delek also shared insights on how emerging technologies—such as AI, automation, and connected worker solutions—are transforming operational excellence.
Attendees at the summit also had the chance to dive deep into the technology driving change, from hands-on site tours to live demonstrations. For Rapid App Werks, this event was the perfect stage to connect with influential industry figures, exchange ideas, and demonstrate how low-code solutions can optimize operations and increase productivity for oil and gas businesses.
The Power of Low-Code Solutions in Oil and Gas
Traditional application development can be time-consuming and costly––this often creates a barrier for companies looking to adopt cutting-edge technology quickly. Low-code solutions, however, offer a flexible and scalable alternative, enabling businesses to rapidly develop, test, and deploy applications tailored to their needs.
At the summit, Rapid App Werks showed how low-code applications can streamline complex operations, from asset management and workforce scheduling to regulatory compliance. Through the reduction of the technical workload and enhancement of customization options, these solutions empower companies to innovate without getting bogged down by traditional development constraints.
