TotalEnergies, a leading energy company, has entered a new phase of its partnership with Industrial Artificial Intelligence (AI) expert Cogniit, signing a three-year program to deploy Cognite's data and AI platforms in all operational research and production (E&P) assets around the world. The initiative aims to integrate technology across the value chain, from drilling to production, with the aim of improving efficiency, reliability and sustainability.
The collaboration is based on years of work between the two companies and focuses on preparing a wide range of industrial data. By streamlining access to this information, Totalenergies hopes to accelerate adoption of new digital applications, improve safety and performance monitoring, and enhance overall operational decision-making.
The platform enables more accurate and faster data analytics, dynamic visualization of assets, dynamic visualization of AI tools, and accelerates the use of AI tools, according to a company's statement, to enhance excellence across Totalenergies' global upstream portfolio.
“The partnership with Cognit represents a new milestone in digital transformation,” said Namita Shah, president of Onetech, Totalenergies. “By globally integrating industrial data and creating data foundations that prepare AI, we create conditions that accelerate AI-driven solutions, significantly improving safety, operational and environmental performance for all-enrich.”
Cognite CEO Girish Rishi added that the collaboration is “built on a shared vision to expand the impact of industrial AI,” prompting Totalenergies teams to quickly unlock insights and improve operational excellence across their global assets.
The agreement follows the two-year, two-year agreement with Emerson's Aspen Technology in July 2025, which will deploy the Aspentech Inmation™ platform across industrial sites, supporting broader digitization and AI integration. The adoption of AI is becoming increasingly important in the oil and gas industry as businesses strive to optimize complex businesses, reduce costly downtime, improve safety, and meet rising environmental and regulatory standards.
