TotalEnergies and SLB have entered into a 10-year partnership to co-develop next-generation digital solutions aimed at enhancing the sustainability of hydrocarbon production.

Both companies will integrate their advanced digital capabilities to improve modeling of the subsurface to optimize production and make it more responsible in addition to reducing existing fields’ carbon intensity and meeting new needs in geological carbon storage.

These new digital tools include AI, with new and existing applications on SLB’s Delfi digital platform, adhering to the Open group’s OSDU Technical Standard.

The partnership will also extend to the solarization of SLB’s industrial sites globally, with TotalEnergies providing customized and competitive solar energy solutions that offer price visibility and reduce SLB’s carbon footprint.

“We are delighted to develop our multi-energy partnerships with SLB through solarization of SLB’s industrial sites and digital innovation that will allow us to develop cutting-edge next-generation software, digital applications and new algorithms applied to geoscience. Thanks to these innovative modeling technologies, we will better utilize the analyses of geological reservoirs and basins in the Oil & Gas sector to reduce emissions and we will progress in geological carbon storage,” said Namita Shah, President, OneTech at TotalEnergies.

For his part, Rakesh Jaggi, President of SLB’s Digital & Integration business said: “Collaboration and knowledge sharing are key for our industry to continuously develop more effective ways of unlocking energy access.”

“With this visionary partnership, we’re combining the know-how and expertise of both companies to accelerate the delivery of new digital capabilities that will benefit the whole industry,” Jaggi added.
