HOUSTON, TEXAS – Enovate – a major innovation player in the oil and gas (O&G) industry – today announced it inked a deal to form a joint partnership with Movistar Empresas and its business unit LUCA. The unique alliance allows O&G customers the ability to increase productivity, cut costs and decrease the industry’s environmental impact while giving them full access to essential digital infrastructure elements, including cyber security, cloud technology and data management components.
The ADA AI™ Digital Ecosystem created by Enovate is the first cloud-based platform that can be used for all upstream operations. Thanks to its newly formed partnership with Movistar Empresas, the Enovate platform will be deployed through a next-generation communications enterprise focusing on the highest standards in data management, cyber security, and a world-class communications infrastructure. For its part, Movistar Empresas will significantly expand market share in O&G by incorporating Enovate’s physics-based artificial intelligence methodology into their extensive customer portfolio.
The combined expertise of the two entities will allow customers to streamline data in a safe, manageable, and easily accessible way while increasing production at reduced operational costs. “We have one of the best Big Data, Analytics and Artificial Intelligence units in the world with LUCA, and this alliance represents important steps in significantly contributing to the digital transformation of the industry with the best technology currently available in O&G,” said Telefónica Movistar B2B Director Carolina Navarrete.
The union of these organizations – coupled by rising a demand for digital automation during a global pandemic – created a necessity and opportunity to advance this digital transformation, explained Enovate CEO Camilo Mejía. “The partnership with Movistar Empresas will accelerate the adoption of physics-based artificial intelligence for remote operations and automation while ensuring high standards for data management and cybersecurity,”.
The result is a formidable blend of the latest in innovative O&G technology with the security and infrastructure essential to the successful operations of O&G companies seeking to be on the cusp of the inevitable digital curve. Customers who secure solutions through the collaboration of these organizations will receive much-needed improved access to big data components; these novel solutions will benefit customers across the entire chain of upstream operations.
As the industry strategizes and adapts to post-COVID realities, the need to deploy technology remotely and automate operations has suddenly become an essential component for survival and growth. The unique partnership between Enovate and Movistar will greatly facilitate the adoption of digital technologies that allow for and simplify those remote deployments and automations.
The ultimate benefit from this cutting-edge union will exist due to the integrated teams from Enovate and Telefónica Colombia working side-by-side in a combined effort to rapidly advance the kind of innovation needed for growth, expansion, and customer-focused solutions across the entire O&G industry.
