SLB launched its Digital Marketplace for discovering and deploying specialized AI agents.

“SLB launched its Digital Marketplace, a curated digital destination designed to help energy companies rapidly discover and deploy specialized AI agents, domain models, skills, tools, data connectors and digital applications within their existing digital environments. The SLB Digital Marketplace extends the company’s open platform strategy to its Tela ™ agentic AI assistant by enabling SLB, partners, independent software vendors, developers and customers to bring purpose-built digital capabilities to the energy industry through a single, governed channel. All marketplace offerings are certified to SLB standards for security, interoperability and compatibility before listing.”

SLB expands NVIDIA collaboration for AI infrastructure and AI Factory for Energy with agentic AI.

““There is a growing opportunity for SLB at the intersection of Digital and Data Center Solutions as we build on our existing relationships with hyperscalers and digital partners. Our progress was underscored by the recently announced expansion of our technology collaboration with NVIDIA to design and deploy critical AI infrastructure as well as develop an ‘AI Factory for Energy’ — a reference environment powered by domain-specific generative AI models and industrial-scale agentic AI — for large-scale deployments in the energy industry,” Le Peuch said.”

SLB plans to integrate acquired S&P software with agentic AI capabilities post-closing.

“On April 23, 2026, SLB entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the geoscience and petroleum engineering software business portfolio of S&P Global Energy, a leading provider of subsurface software widely used by U.S. onshore and unconventional operators. The proposed acquisition represents a targeted expansion of SLB’s digital subsurface and planning portfolio, extending its presence in workflow-centric customer segments that are strategically important to long-term digital growth, while remaining aligned with SLB’s disciplined approach to portfolio development. Following the transaction, SLB intends to progressively integrate S&P Global Energy’s technology stack with its digital platforms, taking a deliberate approach that preserves existing customer workflows while complementing them with agentic AI capabilities. This approach is designed to enhance scalability, performance, and interoperability, while maintaining the practical, workflow-centric solutions that underpin S&P Global Energy’s strong customer adoption. The transaction is anticipated to close in the second half of 2026 or early 2027, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.”

SLB will use Lumi and Tela agentic AI framework with S&P data for new AI models.

“In parallel, the parties entered an agreement to collaborate on building new AI models in which SLB will use its Lumi ™ platform and Tela ™ agentic AI framework to unlock value from S&P Global Energy’s upstream data. The combination of S&P’s upstream data and SLB’s domain expertise will help develop advanced domain foundation models, bringing significant value for the industry.”

SLB and NVIDIA develop AI Factory for Energy using domain-specific generative and industrial-scale agentic AI.

“SLB and NVIDIA expanded their technology collaboration to develop an “AI Factory for Energy,” a reference environment powered by domain-specific generative AI models and industrial-scale agentic AI. This will run on SLB’s digital platforms to help energy companies scale AI for their data and operations. The companies will also work together to optimize the processing of large datasets and AI models across SLB digital platforms using the latest NVIDIA AI infrastructure, aiming to establish new benchmarks for performance and efficiency in energy applications.”

SLB launched Tela agentic-AI assistant embedded in applications to transform upstream energy workflows.

“SLB launched the Tela™ agentic-AI assistant, purpose-built to transform the upstream energy sector. The Tela assistant leverages agentic AI to not only automate processes but transform workflows and drive better business outcomes. Embedded in SLB’s portfolio of applications and platforms, users will interact through a simple conversational interface. This approach enables agentic AI to act as a proactive collaborator — augmenting the workforce to achieve greater productivity and efficiency at scale.”

Shell and SLB collaborate to develop agentic AI-powered solutions using SLB Lumi data and AI platform.

“Shell and SLB signed a strategic collaboration agreement to develop digital and AI solutions that drive measurable performance and efficiency gains across upstream operations for the company and the wider industry. The collaboration has the ambition to develop agentic AI-powered solutions that will accelerate and amplify the capabilities of technical experts and decision makers. The aim is to develop and deploy an open data and AI infrastructure that unifies data and workflows across subsurface, well construction and production in a secure digital environment, using the SLB Lumi™ data and AI platform.”

SLB offers data platforms and agentic AI orchestration for energy industry customers.

“Digital capabilities continue to grow throughout the energy industry as a key element of the complex systems required to meet current energy demand and improve efficiency. SLB is uniquely positioned to support customers on their digital journeys by providing an offering which spans planning and operational workflows, underpinned by data platforms and agentic AI orchestration which not only allow customers to realize efficiency gains but also transforms industry workflows through AI.”

SLB and AIQ will collaborate to develop and deploy ENERGYai agentic AI for ADNOC subsurface operations.

“In Abu Dhabi, SLB and AIQ will closely collaborate to advance AIQ’s continued development and deployment of its ENERGYai agentic AI solution across ADNOC’s subsurface operations. ENERGYai combines large language model (LLM) technology with cutting-edge agentic AI, which is trained for specific workflows across ADNOC’s upstream value chain. AIQ and SLB will jointly design and deploy new agentic AI workflows across ADNOC’s subsurface operations, including for geology, seismic explorations and reservoir modeling, supported by SLB’s Lumi ™ data and AI platform and other digital technologies.”
