ANYbotics partners with SLB to advance autonomous robotics operations

ANYbotics says that it has entered into a long-term preferred partnership with SLB to provide state-of-the-art robotics solutions to the oil and gas industry.

The companies say that this collaboration will help operators manage inspections, improve predictive maintenance, and enhance safety. 

ANYbotics says that it will bring its ANYmal X, their flagship Zone 1-certified robot, to the partnership. The robot will incorporate SLB’s digital solutions by automating routine tasks, enabling predictive maintenance, and reducing human risk.

The companies say that the partnership will leverage SLB’s global footprint and industry knowledge with ANYbotics’ AI-driven robotic expertise to reshape how operators manage inspections, maintenance, and safety procedures. 

By integrating ANYmal X into SLB’s asset management solutions, the two companies say that oil and gas facility operators will benefit from enhanced data collection, digital twins, optimized maintenance, and reduced downtime. 

The ANYbotics-SLB collaboration drives this shift by deploying Robots-as-a-Service (RaaS) at scale. The “end-to-end solution” will enable operators to delegate up to 96% of routine inspections to ANYmal, resulting in a 70% reduction in tasks requiring human involvement, the two companies say.
