Europe’s Oil and Gas Industry Turning to AI to Improve Operations Amid Energy Security Concerns
Information Services Group (ISG) has published a new report highlighting how Europe's oil and gas industry is increasingly adopting AI technologies to optimize operations amid growing energy security concerns. Major companies like BP, Shell, and TotalEnergies are leveraging AI for exploration, production, refining, predictive maintenance, and supply chain management.
The report indicates that Europe's oil and gas demand is projected to decline by 25-50% in the next five years. The industry faces pressure to increase short-term production while preparing for a lower-carbon future, particularly due to supply disruptions related to the Ukraine conflict. Companies are turning to generative AI, machine learning, and digital twins to improve enterprise asset management and enhance cybersecurity.
The ISG Provider Lens™ report evaluated 33 providers across four quadrants, with Accenture, Capgemini, Deloitte, IBM Consulting, Infosys, TCS, and Wipro named as leaders in all four quadrants. Capgemini was recognized as the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2024.

Insights
The strategic shift towards AI adoption in Europe's oil and gas sector represents a pivotal transformation in operational efficiency and cost management. The projected 25-50% decline in oil and gas demand over the next five years is forcing major players like BP, Shell and TotalEnergies to accelerate their digital transformation initiatives. This adaptation is particularly important given the complex geopolitical landscape and energy security concerns stemming from the Ukraine conflict.
The implementation of generative AI, machine learning and digital twins in enterprise asset management signals a significant modernization effort in an traditionally conservative industry. This technological evolution is not merely about optimization - it's a survival strategy in response to mounting regulatory pressures and the EU's aggressive net-zero emissions targets.
The industry's digital transformation strategy focuses on three critical technological pillars:
- Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) optimization through AI and ML
- Enhanced cybersecurity measures in response to the European Commission Cyber Resilience Act
- Cloud-based infrastructure modernization
The competitive landscape shows clear market leaders, with companies like Accenture, Capgemini, Deloitte and IBM Consulting dominating across multiple service quadrants. Capgemini's recognition as the global ISG CX Star Performer indicates strong execution in customer experience transformation, a important differentiator in this evolving market.
The timing of this technological transformation is strategically significant. With North Sea exploration gaining renewed importance and the simultaneous pressure to transition to renewable energy sources, AI-driven efficiencies become important for balancing short-term energy security needs with long-term sustainability goals. The industry's dual challenge of increasing immediate production while preparing for a lower-carbon future creates a unique window of opportunity for technology service providers. This evolution will likely trigger a wave of infrastructure modernization projects, particularly in predictive maintenance and supply chain optimization, potentially leading to significant market opportunities for both technology providers and energy companies.
At what could be a critical turning point for Europe’s energy producers, technology advancements enable new process efficiencies, ISG Provider Lens™ report says

The sector’s growing use of technology to improve operations comes at a pivotal moment for Europe’s oil and gas industry. Offshore production is gaining increased attention amid energy security concerns caused by the war in
“Europe’s upstream oil and gas industry is at a turning point,” said Julien Escribe, partner and managing director, ISG SEMEA. “The industry must increase production in the short term to combat supply challenges while at the same time prepare for a lower-carbon future. Technology is playing an increasingly important role in the transition.”
Supply chain disruptions, particularly related to Russia’s ongoing conflict with neighboring
Being asset-intensive, the oil and gas industry has been slower than most at adopting digital technologies. However, with petroleum and natural gas prices likely to increase while demand decreases, amid the European Union’s continued push for net-zero emissions, producers are forced to find ways to improve efficiency while reducing costs.
“Geopolitics, geology and ecology are conspiring to shift the world’s energy trade patterns,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “The providers that emerge as leaders in the oil and gas sector will be the ones that guide producers through the maze of new, and sometimes conflicting, energy regulations; help them shift their capital allocations to invest in greener, more sustainable processes, and improve the security of their supply chains.”
The report also explores other trends, including increasing cyber security threats to the EU’s critical infrastructure. Providers in the oil and gas space are reacting to the new European Commission Cyber Resilience Act by bolstering their cybersecurity services, particularly related to their use of cloud-based storage, data and infrastructure.
