Al Masaood Energy and Gecko Robotics announce a multi-year contract with ADNOC Gas, the integrated gas processing company of ADNOC Group.
The contract, with an estimated ceiling of $30 Million dollars, will see the utilization of Gecko’s industry-leading robots and AI-powered data platform across ADNOC Gas sites facilitating predictive maintenance to increase efficiencies, reduce downtime and CO2 emissions, while also maintaining HSE best practice for the safety of its employees and contractors.
“ADNOC and the UAE are at the forefront of using Industry 4.0 tools to boost efficiency and decrease their carbon footprint - and the world is noticing. H.E. Dr. Sultan Al Jaber’s leadership on the world stage at COP28 speaks to ADNOC’s commitment to using new technology to reduce carbon emissions, and Gecko is proud to enlist our robots and software to that cause. Great things are happening in the UAE and we’re excited to continue to increase our footprint as part of the NextGenFDI initiative”, said Jake Loosararian, co-founder and CEO of Gecko Robotics.
“The partnership between Gecko and Al Masaood Energy represents a cornerstone commitment by Al Masaood Energy to advance the decarbonization strategic agenda of ADNOC. It serves as a compelling demonstration of how cutting-edge technologies can be instrumental in realizing the nation's ambitious net-zero objectives”, said Dr. Ahmad El Tannir, General Manager of Al Masaood Energy.
Gecko’s wall-climbing robots use specially designed sensor payloads that build sophisticated digital maps of critical assets. Gecko software platform, Cantilever, takes that data and combines it with operational data to allow for precision repairs and preventive maintenance. Many companies and government agencies use Gecko’s software to extend the lifespan and efficiency of critical infrastructure, including power plants, oil refineries, manufacturing facilities and other assets.
