ADNOC and AIQ complete upstream trials with agentic AI

ABU DHABI, January 16, 2025 – ADNOC and Abu Dhabi-based AI company AIQ have completed a successful proof-of-concept trial of ENERGYai, an agentic AI solution developed specifically for the energy industry, ADNOC announced on Thursday.

For the 90-day trial, the companies used AI agents to combine ENERGYai’s 70-billion-parameter large language model (LLM) with petabytes of ADNOC proprietary data sourced from over 15% of ADNOC’s onshore and offshore wells.

The results of the trial delivered a 70% improvement in accuracy in seismic interpretation aspects and significant improvements in reservoir monitoring and anomaly detection. According to the companies, it also showed promise for improving the reliability and usability of operational data inputs by detecting errors, standardizing formats and enriching datasets.

“The successful completion of this proof of concept for ENERGYai has shown extremely promising results, and has confirmed the potential of the solution to be a powerhouse for value creation and sustainable energy production,” said Musabbeh Al Kaabi, ADNOC Upstream CEO.

The first operational, scalable version of ENERGYai is expected to be completed in H1 2025. It will include five AI agents covering tasks within subsurface operations and will be test-deployed across several of ADNOC’s upstream assets.
