Description

In the newest episode of The Next Imperative, Geoff Angulo is joined by Andy Zagoren and John Norton to unpack the exploration crisis facing today’s oil & gas industry. They discuss why exploration success rates have dropped sharply over the past 15 years, how financial pressures and underinvestment have created a skills gap, and what companies can do to reverse the trend. The conversation also explores how data, AI, and cross-industry lessons can help revitalize exploration strategies for the future.
