AIQ And SLB To Advance Development And Deployment Of Agentic AI Solution Across ADNOC's Subsurface Operations

• SLB to integrate proprietary solutions with AIQ’s ENERGY^ai agentic AI workflows
• AIQ to deploy transformational AI solution in ADNOC’s upstream operations this year following award of $340M contract
• SLB joins Microsoft and G42 as implementation partners

Global energy technology company SLB and AIQ, the Abu Dhabi-based AI champion for the energy sector, will closely collaborate to advance AIQ’s continued development and deployment of its ENERGY^ai agentic AI solution across ADNOC’s subsurface operations.

Built on 70 years of proprietary data and knowledge, ENERGY^ai combines large language model (LLM) technology with cutting-edge agentic AI, which is trained for specific workflows across ADNOC’s upstream value chain. Early indications of the solution's capabilities in a test environment using 15% of ADNOC’s data, and looking specifically at two fields, resulted in a seismic agent achieving a 10x increase in the speed of seismic interpretation, and a 70% increase in precision.

AIQ and SLB will jointly design and deploy new agentic AI workflows across ADNOC’s subsurface operations, including for geology, seismic explorations, and reservoir modeling, supported by SLB’s Lumi data and AI platform, and other digital technologies. Designed to help customers boost productivity and efficiency, the Lumi platform enhances data access, streamlines workflows, and scales AI solutions seamlessly.

A scalable version of ENERGY^ai is under development, which will include AI agents covering tasks within subsurface operations. Deployment will commence in Q4 2025.

“This partnership reflects our vision to harness AI for energy optimization, and we are enthusiastic that SLB shares this outlook. The collaboration between AIQ and SLB enables the development of sophisticated AI workflows that integrate seamlessly with ADNOC’s infrastructure, driving efficiency, scalability, and innovation at every stage of the energy lifecycle,” said Dennis Jol, CEO of AIQ. “Our ENERGY^ai agentic AI solution is pioneering in its sheer scale and impact, and we are proud to involve other significant industry technology players in its development and evolution.”

“Our collaborations with AIQ have already delivered innovative solutions, and now we are supporting the building of the foundation for the next era of intelligent energy operations together with AIQ’s ENERGY^ai. This agentic AI solution is set to drive long-term value and operational resilience across ADNOC’s energy value chain,” said Rakesh Jaggi, president, Digital & Integration, SLB.

ENERGY^ai will power agentic AI to automate complex, high-impact tasks, increasing efficiency, enhancing decision-making and optimizing production across ADNOC’s operations. The collaboration between AIQ and SLB reflects a shared commitment to innovation, operational excellence, and data-centric energy supply, delivering business impact at scale for ADNOC and accelerating the impact of AI-driven energy transformation.
