Title: Data Science for Physical Energy Trading Insights
Abstract: BP p.l.c Trading Division, a.k.a. IST, Integrated Supply and Trading, is increasingly leveraging Data Science and machine learning technologies to uncover insights from public and private data sets, for example, weather, global financial markets, vessel movement (there are 100,000 of them), geopolitical events, to draft global energy supply and demand flow so we can help operators and traders to make informed decision on risk management and new trading opportunity discovery. In this talk, I’ll show you the size of the energy market and BP’s role in it, visualisation of the interesting datasets we are dealing with, and our current thoughts around emerging technologies and where you might play an important role!
