Get ready for a deep dive into field data capture with Brandon Ambrose, the mastermind behind EZ Ops, and Ruchita Rosario, data science whiz from Detechtion. They’re breaking down how they’re making life easier for the folks on the ground in oil and gas by bringing AI and smarter data to field operations. Instead of drowning in raw data, operators now have tools that actually make sense of it all—highlighting what matters most, cutting the clutter, and boosting efficiency. From the roots of EZ Ops in Western Canada to becoming a game-changer for blue-collar teams, Brandon and Ruchita share how they’re building a smarter, more connected future for oil and gas.
