“Our collaboration with NVIDIA will accelerate the creation of tailored generative AI solutions, enabling our customers to optimize operations, enhance efficiency and minimize their overall footprint,” said Olivier Le Peuch, chief executive officer, Schlumberger.

Schlumberger and NVIDIA’s partnership started in 2008, focusing on the groundbreaking application of graphics processing units (GPUs).

Now, with the latest deal, Schlumberger will leverage NVIDIA NeMo, which is part of the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software suite, to develop tailored generative AI that can operate in data centers, on any cloud, or at the edge.

“Custom models created by SLB leveraging NVIDIA NeMo will provide the industry’s scientists and engineers unprecedented insight to speed their work in optimizing the energy supplies today and unlocking the clean energy innovations of tomorrow,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA.

This initiative aims to fully harness the potential of generative AI for energy domain professionals to generate greater value and reduce carbon emissions.

According to a research report by Kings Research, the global Artificial Intelligence in Energy Market is projected to reach $46.188 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 17.18% from 2024 to 2031.

This rapid expansion might underscore the potential impact of Schlumberger and NVIDIA’s partnership in leveraging AI solutions for the energy sector.

Price Action: SLB shares are trading higher by 2.29% to $42.37 at last check Thursday, while NVDA shares are trading higher by 4.66% to $118.71.
