Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. (Adnoc) is implementing artificial intelligence (AI) to significantly decrease unexpected maintenance shutdowns and improve the precision of production forecasts. Adnoc is integrating over 200 AI use cases, spanning from the wellhead to the trading floor. These AI tools are designed to cut unplanned shutdowns by half and enhance overall performance.
ADNOC's Centralised Predictive Analytics and Diagnostics (CPAD) programme uses AI to remotely monitor critical operational equipment. This system has drastically reduced the frequency of unplanned shutdowns and streamlined routine maintenance, enhancing operational efficiency. AI applications also play a central role in mapping subsurface resources, optimising drilling and production, and enabling smarter reservoir management.
Through its international investment arm XRG, ADNOC has closed gas deals in multiple countries and continues to seek more opportunities across the gas value chain. The company aims to be the most AI-native energy company, ushering in a new era of intelligence-powered optimisation and efficiency.
