In the era of digitization of oil and gas industry, application of big data that is generated in the process of oil and gas exploration and development can boost the construction of digital and intelligent oilfield. The paper has introduced the status and problems of the application of big data in seismic, logging, drilling, fracturing, gas testing and productivity optimization, and ways of fast and efficient big data acquisition, processing and analysis in multiple domains of oil and gas industry. The expansion of oil and gas exploration and development activities especially needs the support of advanced big data analyzing and computing techniques that can be applied through upstream to downstream of the industry to get higher exploration and development efficiency. Full use of primary data mining and analyzing techniques can lower the cost of oil and gas operations and improve the integrated innovation of exploration and development. The research of application of big data analyzing techniques can speed up the construction of intelligent oilfield, provide better information resources for decision making, and lay solid foundation for sustainable development of oil companies. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
