The event will showcase SIMULIA’s state of the art Simulation capabilities tailored to the applications in the Energy Industry. The event will host several technical tracks including High-Fidelity Sim Models, Multiphysics Design, and Drilling & Completion. Also in focus, is Energy transition through Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS), and Simulation driven design enabled through SolidWorks & other CAD tools across various applications within the Industry. Furthermore, this event will explore ways in which innovative technology such as Generative AI & ML can have a transformational impact on the Energy Industry.
The Energy Day is an excellent opportunity to network & collaborate, in person, with Oil & Gas industry practitioners and leaders, along with SIMULIA’s network of Industry Consultants to address the Dual Challenge that the Energy Industry faces today.
