Operate asset
How operate asset are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 15% of Operate asset is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: With no child occupations seeded, this scalar relies entirely on the process name ('Operate asset') and its industry anchors ('Oil and Gas Extraction', 'Support Activities for Mining'). Operating upstream petroleum assets is fundamentally physical work involving the direct control, monitoring, and maintenance of heavy field machinery and rigs, placing this solidly in the physical band at a band-center value.

Business-as-Code
Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.
Operate asset sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Operate asset inherits.

How the work flows
Trigger: A commissioned well or surface facility is handed over to production operations or scheduled for daily hydrocarbon extraction.
- Monitor daily well and facility production parameters
- Control process flows and adjust operating parameters
- Perform routine asset inspections and field data collection
- Manage field logistics and operator shifts
- Coordinate planned and reactive maintenance activities
- Ensure compliance with health, safety, and environmental standards
- Report daily production volumes and operational downtime
Outcome: Hydrocarbons are safely extracted, processed, and routed to transport infrastructure while maintaining continuous asset integrity.
