About Oil & Gas Journal ReEnterprised

The Oil & Gas Journal ReEnterprised podcast addresses issues facing the petroleum industry in a way that highlights its transformation in light of the energy transition to a net-zero carbon future, as well as the ongoing evolution to a more inclusive and equitable society. With in-depth perspectives from OGJ editors and guests from all facets of the business, the podcast will explore and discuss the ways operators, service companies, and their employees from this historically very traditional industry are working through and finding solutions to these more progressive, nontraditional issues.

   Insights: US shale maturity and the future of North American supply

   North America's oil supply outlook is entering a new phase. According to Enverus' latest long-term analysis, US shale is "aging, not broken." In this episode of the Oil & Gas Journal ReEnterprised podcast, Mikaila Adams speaks with Dane Gregoris, managing director at Enverus Intelligence Research, about the data behind the firm's outlook for North American oil production. The discussion explores: Why US shale growth is expected to slow as inventories mature. Declining productivity trends and changing inventory quality. The long-term outlook for the Permian basin. New technologies that could improve recoveries. Why Canada is becoming increasingly important to future North American supply. How infrastructure, LNG development, and market economics could shape production through 2035 and beyond. Gregoris explains why Enverus expects US production to remain relatively stable over the next decade, what rising marginal supply costs could mean for markets, and how the North American energy landscape may evolve as the industry's most productive shale resources mature.

   AI Where the Work Already Happens: Scaling Subsurface Analytics Without Building From Scratch

   This episode explores why so many subsurface AI projects fail to move beyond the prototype stage and what it takes to successfully deploy AI in real-world workflows. Rather than building custom applications that require significant maintenance and specialized expertise, many organizations are finding greater success with platform-based solutions that already provide secure data access, scalable analytics, and trusted workflows. The discussion also separates genuine AI value from industry hype, highlighting practical use cases across interpretation, field development, and production analytics. Through examples from operators, investors, and consultants, the episode demonstrates how proven platforms can accelerate AI adoption and deliver results faster.

   Insights: Prioritizing process safety management across the refining industry (Pt. II)

   In this Insights episode of the Oil & Gas Journal ReEnterprised podcast, downstream editor and lead reporter Robert Brelsford concludes the conversation on process safety management with Joe Barnes, principal of Barnes’ Engineering Consultants and a veteran oil and gas operations, maintenance, reliability, and major-projects leader with more than 30 years of industry experience. Barnes outlines five priorities for senior leaders and plant managers: maintaining strong operating procedures and management-of-change practices; routinely auditing lockout/tagout procedures; providing effective operator and supervisor training; and preventing deferred maintenance, particularly on critical equipment. He also emphasizes the importance of leadership visibility in the field, encouraging executives and plant managers to regularly engage with operating personnel and understand the condition of equipment and processes firsthand. During the conversation, Robert and Joe examine the tension between profitability, market pressures, and the investments required to operate safely. Barnes explains why strong financial performance should support investment in equipment, maintenance, training, and people rather than encourage short-term decisions that could increase risk. He also discusses how management should evaluate efficiency measures, staffing changes, maintenance deferrals, turnaround modifications, and capital reductions while keeping process and personal safety central to decision-making. The two consider how facilities can demonstrate that process safety systems are working in practice through dedicated internal audits, periodic third-party reviews, corrective-action follow-through, and the use of real-world incident scenarios in operator training. Barnes explains how investigation findings can be converted into case-based exercises that help workers recognize hazards, assess risks, and develop the right responses before returning to the field. He also recommends reviewing procedures, emergency-response plans, and process hazards periodically to help ensure they remain current and effective. Robert and Joe further explore how leaders can create an environment in which employees and contractors feel comfortable reporting weak signals, near misses, and other bad news. Barnes argues that management must investigate reported concerns, respond visibly, and demonstrate that risk identification leads to action. He outlines immediate steps for strengthening process safety culture, including communicating clear and unwavering expectations, protecting critical maintenance, auditing what matters, rewarding the right behaviors, and improving workers’ understanding of process limits. Barnes closes by emphasizing the importance of visible and consistent leadership, stronger communication of lessons between facilities, and treating process safety as a core operating requirement rather than a temporary investment. He also discusses the role of Barnes’ Engineering Consultants in developing training modules based on major incidents and offers a final reminder that technology and artificial intelligence can improve operations, but human care, judgment, and decision-making remain essential to preventing major incidents.
