Digital Solutions

SLB has signed a new strategic collaboration agreement. They are working with Shell on this important effort. The goal is to develop specific digital and AI solutions. These solutions will drive efficiency across upstream operations. The partnership seeks to accelerate and amplify expert capabilities. They will use agentic AI-powered tools to help decision-makers. The overall aim is to deploy a secure digital environment. This environment will unify data and workflows.

The project covers subsurface, well construction, and production. It will leverage SLB’s Lumi™ platform. This platform is key to data and AI infrastructure. This collaboration highlights a long-standing relationship between the companies. Earlier this year, SLB announced a technical partnership. This aimed to deploy the Petrel™ software globally. It helped to standardize workflows and infrastructure. This approach accelerates scalable Digital Solutions.

Driving Performance Gains with Agentic AI

Rakesh Jaggi is the president of SLB’s digital business. He stated that AI is changing the industry today.

“The energy industry is being reshaped by digital and AI. Working with industry leaders like Shell enables us to accelerate development of advanced digital and agentic AI solutions that are changing how our industry works through automation and autonomy to generate value right across upstream, from planning through operations.”

This collaboration will inform Shell’s digital strategy. It will also help their technology roadmap. The project promotes mutual learning for Shell’s wider digital transformation. Ultimately, it contributes to the development of new Digital Solutions. These solutions must be commercially viable. They must also be broadly applicable across the industry.

The partnership focuses on automation and autonomy. It allows the industry to generate value from planning through operations. The new Digital Solutions aim to improve cost operating efficiencies. They deliver measurable performance and efficiency gains for the entire sector.
