ADNOC signs a multi-year AI partnership with OpenAI and G42

Why it matters

Abu Dhabi's oil company becomes the first energy firm in the world to use OpenAI's advanced platform to coordinate AI agents across its operations.

First two uses

• Whole-field development planning
• Valuing each barrel underground
• Running on G42 infrastructure in the UAE

The first phase has two uses: planning whole oil fields at once, and valuing each barrel while it is still underground. The systems will run on G42's AI infrastructure in the UAE, with human experts overseeing key decisions.
