In 2025, the use of artificial intelligence contributed to value creation and savings of a total of 130 million dollars (approximately 900 million kroner) for Equinor and the company's partners. The technology is currently widely used on both offshore platforms and onshore facilities, where it is used to solve industrial tasks more efficiently and safely. Equinor states this in a press release.
According to the company, artificial intelligence is crucial to the ambition to maintain production on the Norwegian shelf until 2035 while at the same time ensuring energy supply and continued value creation. AI is used, among other things, to monitor more than 700 rotating machines with 24,000 sensors, where the systems can predict errors and maintenance needs and thus reduce the risk of unplanned shutdowns.
In addition, the technology is used for well planning and field development, where AI in connection with Johan Sverdrup phase 3 identified a solution that saved the partnership 12 million kroner. dollar (approx. 83 million DKK). AI is also used for the interpretation of seismic data, where capacity has increased significantly, and in 2025 alone 700,000 square kilometers were analyzed.
- AI is a central part of our operations. In the future, AI will become even more important for solving industrial tasks safely, faster, more profitably and on a large scale. With AI, we can analyze seismic data ten times faster, plan wells and field development in new and better ways and operate our facilities more efficiently, says Hege Skryseth, CEO of Technology, Digital and Innovation at Equinor.
Since 2020, Equinor has realized values of more than 330 million USD (approx. 2.3 billion DKK) by using artificial intelligence in industrial processes, according to the company.
