French energy company TotalEnergies has expanded its partnership with generative AI firm Cognite to scale Cognite’s industrial data and AI platform across the entirety of Total’s upstream asset base.

The deployment, which will take place over three years, will cover all of Total’s value chain from drilling to production. The partnership aims to utilize Total’s data to support industrial performance across its sites.

“This partnership with Cognite marks a new milestone in our digital transformation,” said Namita Shah, president of OneTech at TotalEnergies. “By creating the data foundation which unifies our industrial data globally and makes it AI-ready, we are creating the conditions to accelerate AI-driven solutions that will significantly enhance the safety, operational, and environmental performance of TotalEnergies. This initiative reflects our ambition to make data and AI strategic levers for more reliable, sustainable, and efficient energy.”

The deployment aims to enable Total to access more industrial data, improving the accuracy and speed of data analysis. It will also enable the dynamic visualization of assets to enhance decision-making throughout the production lifecycle, monitor critical equipment, and ultimately accelerate the adoption of AI to drive performance across sites.

“TotalEnergies isn’t just embracing digital transformation; they are accelerating their entire operation,” said Girish Rishi, CEO of Cognite. “Our long-term collaboration is built on a shared vision to scale the impact of Industrial AI. By establishing an AI-ready data foundation, we’re equipping their teams to rapidly unlock insights and improve operational excellence across their global assets.”

The initiative builds on an already existing relationship between the two companies.

Headquartered in Paris, TotalEnergies has a presence in about 120 countries and a global workforce of over 100,000 people. Its integrated energy operations span oil, natural gas, biofuels, hydrogen, renewables, and electricity. The company has signed several energy supply agreements with tech firms.

In January, it signed a 15-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Total Energies for 1.5TWh over the course of the agreement. The PPA will power STMicroelectronics sites in France and will be supplied from two recently constructed wind and solar farms with a combined capacity of 75MW.

Headquartered in Oslo, Cognite is a Norwegian software-as-a-service company. It provides software and Internet services to industrial firms.

Earlier this month, the company announced a strategic partnership with Aker BP, a European oil and gas company. The deal saw Aker agree to adopt Cognite’s Atlas AI solution, which uses AI agents to improve the efficiency of industrial processes.
