AIQ, the Abu Dhabi-based AI pioneer developing innovative solutions for the energy sector, and Kent, a leading global engineering and digital solutions provider, have signed a Strategic Collaboration Agreement to explore advanced AI applications in engineering optimisation and digital transformation
Potential areas for co-development include an AI-powered Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) Optimization Platform designed to enhance the effectiveness of engineering teams by improving the efficiency, accuracy, and speed of FEED processes. Additionally, AIQ and Kent will investigate AI-driven innovations in autonomous operations, digital twins for asset management, which can be utilised for real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and performance optimisation, and health, safety, and environment (HSE) applications. The latter encompasses predictive maintenance technologies, real-time monitoring, and other digital tools that improve operational safety, reduce downtime, and extend asset lifespans.
Magzhan Kenesbai, acting managing director of AIQ commented, “AIQ is at a pivotal stage in its development as we seek to expand our capabilities and geographies of operation. Collaborating with an established engineering and solutions provider like Kent will allow us to accelerate the scale and delivery of our transformational AI solutions as we progress autonomous and intelligent systems across the entire energy value chain.”
Tush Doshi, chief operating officer at Kent said, “Working with AIQ allows us to combine our engineering and project management expertise with cutting-edge AI technology to address some of the most pressing challenges in the energy sector. We are committed to delivering solutions that not only meet today’s demands but also pave the way for a more resilient, sustainable, and digitally driven future. Together, we can create innovative solutions that make a real impact for our clients and the industry.”
The agreement was announced at ADIPEC 2024, where the transformative impact of AI was one of the major focuses.
