Who Should Attend?

The Applications of AI in Geoscience Conference 2026 will bring together:

Geoscientists  •  Data Scientists  •  Academics  •  Students  •  Consultants  •  Technology Companies

Join leading professionals from across industry, academia and technology to share real-world experience, practical insight and the latest developments in Artificial Intelligence for geoscience.

Why Attend?

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly changing the way geoscience is practised. Many geoscientists are now asking not whether AI will affect their work, but how they can use it effectively, responsibly and practically.

The Applications of AI in Geoscience Conference 2026 has been developed to address the current challenges facing the geoscience sector and to showcase practical applications already delivering value across industry.

Industry Challenges Addressed

  • Working with increasingly large and complex subsurface datasets
  • Reducing interpretation cycle time
  • Improving consistency and repeatability in technical workflows
  • Integrating geological knowledge with machine learning methods
  • Understanding where AI adds value and where expert judgement remains essential
  • Preparing geoscientists for the next generation of digital and AI-assisted workflows

Practical Focus

Rather than focusing solely on theory, the Applications of AI in Geoscience Conference 2026 will demonstrate how Artificial Intelligence is already being applied within exploration, reservoir characterisation and subsurface workflows.

Whether you are already using AI tools or are looking to understand where they can add value to your organisation, the programme has been designed to provide practical insight from industry experts, technology providers and academic leaders.
