SLB (NYSE: SLB) today announced an expansion of its technology collaboration with NVIDIA to design and deploy critical AI infrastructure and models for the energy industry.

The work focuses on three strategic elements:

  • Modular design for data centers: SLB will serve as the modular design partner for NVIDIA DSX AI factories. This modular approach, where components are manufactured offsite, will drive increased quality and reliability while also reducing costs, labor constraints and lead times. It also enables rapid and flexible scaling, which allows customers to expand data center capacity quickly as demand grows.
  • AI Factory for Energy: SLB will work with NVIDIA to develop an "AI Factory for Energy," a reference environment powered by domain-specific generative AI models and industrial-scale agentic AI. This will run on SLB's digital platforms to help energy companies scale AI for their data and operations.
  • Accelerated computing for SLB digital platforms: The companies will optimize the processing of large datasets and AI models across SLB digital platforms using the latest NVIDIA AI infrastructure, aiming to establish new benchmarks for performance and efficiency in energy applications.
