Abstract. The oil industry is currently facing significant challenges related to sustainability, efficiency and reducing environmental impact. In the context of increasing global energy demand and, of course, the pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, innovative solutions are becoming essential. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a transformative technology, offering opportunities to optimize energy resources and promote sustainable development in the oil sector. Of course, implementing AI in the oil industry involves obstacles such as direct costs, the need for advanced infrastructure and data security issues. Therefore, the long-term benefits in terms of efficiency, reduced environmental impact and sustainability are significant. However, in a global context, AI contributes to a more responsible management of energy resources and a more sustainable future for the energy sector.
Keywords: oil, natural gas, energy resources, industry, sustainable development, Artificial Intelligence.
