Current & Critical -Billy Rideout, Technology Disruption in Oil & Gas

For nearly 20 years, Billy worked as a Chemical Engineer using a lot of technologies that originated from the 60s and 70s. Many of them improved over time, but none were innovative game-changers that kept up with the times. So, in 2015, Billy decided to shake things up, quite literally. He founded Exergy Solutions Inc., a disruptive technology-focused consultancy that offers fit-for-purpose lab-scale and pilot-scale equipment for research and innovation, including 3D Printing and Augmented and Virtual Reality. Join me as Billy talks about the disruptive technology space, its impact on the transformation of our energy sector and why it needs to happen fast so that Alberta and Western Canada can remain competitive in the international market.
