## Optimizing ESP Operations with AI and Machine Learning to Improve Well Performance

At the 2022 Machine Learning in Oil and Gas Conference, **SoftServe’s Director of AI and Data Science Iurii Milovanov** and **Vital Energy’s Principal Data Scientist David Benham** presented on how AI and ML applications can improve oil and gas production and discussed the challenges learned from building a ML solution for ESP optimization.

Manual ESP monitoring and management is time-consuming, expensive, and prone to human errors. Intelligent technologies can take the complexity out of operating ESPs helping recognize problems, identify opportunities, and optimize production rates.
