Across Asia Pacific, more than 70% of producing fields are now in mature or late-life stages, with operators facing mounting challenges in maintaining production efficiency, managing asset integrity, and addressing growing decommissioning liabilities. Each year, billions are spent simply to sustain declining output, while new methane regulations and net-zero commitments intensify the pressure to extract more value with a smaller environmental footprint.
Despite access to decades of operational and production data, many brownfield assets continue to rely on reactive maintenance and isolated decision-making—limiting the ability to fully optimise recovery, cost, and sustainability outcomes. Today, however, digitalisation, data-driven asset management, and predictive technologies are reshaping how operators extend asset life, streamline operations, and transition ageing infrastructure toward lower-carbon opportunities.
This workshop will bring together operators, service providers, and researchers from across the region to share case studies, exchange lessons learnt and discuss late-life strategies that deliver measurable value. Sessions will explore topics such as production optimisation, digital twins, AI-based integrity monitoring, and data-centric decision models that balance OPEX, ABEX, and ESG performance.
Participants will gain practical frameworks for managing ageing assets—from life extension and repurposing to decommissioning planning and execution. Asia Pacific is uniquely positioned to lead the next phase of intelligent brownfield management—transforming regulatory and operational challenges into opportunities for innovation, efficiency, and sustainable value creation.
