ADNOC has announced the deployment of AIQ’s Advanced Reservoir 360 solution across more than 30 reservoirs within its upstream operations. This follows the successful initial deployment of AR360 in early 2024 on two key ADNOC reservoirs, Bab and Umm Shaif fields. Developed by AIQ in collaboration with SLB as part of ADNOC’s ENERGYai strategy, AR360 leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to enhance reservoir management and optimise field development planning.
Abdulmunim Saif Al Kindy, ADNOC upstream executive director, emphasised the importance of this advancement, stating, “The integration of AR360 across more of our reservoirs is a testament to our success in harnessing AI and advanced technologies to unlock more value from our natural resources. Building on decades of investment in innovation and technology, we will continue to accelerate the deployment of AI solutions from the control room to the boardroom as we responsibly meet the growing global energy demand.”
The AR360 platform is designed to significantly reduce planning time, increase well life, and improve recovery rates by balancing drilling activities, enhancing existing wells’ performance, and optimising both injection and production volumes. The solution consolidates multiple software platforms and data sets into a single system, enabling more efficient and proactive decision-making through AI-driven insights.
Magzhan Kenesbai, acting managing director of AIQ, highlighted the significance of the broader deployment: “The extended deployment of AR360 by ADNOC is an important endorsement of our technology and reinforces the emergence of AIQ as a developing global AI supplier for the energy sector. We are committed to driving greater operational efficiencies across the entire energy value chain, particularly in upstream operations, and unlocking greater value for the industry.”
AR360 is part of ADNOC’s broader strategy to integrate more than 30 AI tools across various operational layers to enhance safety, reduce emissions, and optimise efficiency while maximising value. This strategic move demonstrates ADNOC’s commitment to utilising AI and digital technologies to improve operational performance and support sustainable growth in the global energy market.
