SLB and TotalEnergies announced July 2 the beginning of a 10-year partnership to develop scalable digital solutions that enable access to energy resources.
The collaboration establishes a “flexible” framework for the companies to address challenges across the energy value chain, including carbon capture, utilization and sequestration (CCUS), SLB said in it press release.
Initially, the partnership will focus on subsurface digital solutions for reservoir engineering and geoscience modeling and interpretation, using SLB’s Delfi on-demand reservoir simulation (ODRS). The project plans to adhere to the Open Group’s OSDU Technical Standard. These processes will be accelerated and automated using AI and real-world learnings from both companies.
“Thanks to these innovative modeling technologies, we will not only be better able to utilize the analyses of geological reservoirs and basins in the oil and gas sector to reduce emissions but also to make further progress in geological carbon storage,” said Namita Shah, president of OneTech at TotalEnergies.
