January 03, 2025 [Saipem]- Saipem, a global leader in engineering services for the energy and infrastructure sectors, and AVEVA, a global leader in industrial software, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to co-develop enhanced solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to support the engineering design and construction of energy and infrastructure facilities.
The collaboration between Saipem and AVEVA will focus on three areas of interest: optimisation of both 3D modelling and project planning, streamlining of material procurement and project supply chain.
By implementing AI-driven solutions, Saipem aims to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of projects throughout the entire lifecycle, from estimation to plant design and construction. AVEVA will support Saipem in creating software that leverage generative and predictive design to develop multiple simulation scenarios to optimise plant design in 1D, 2D and 3D. The goal is to reduce the time required to complete project tasks, foster better communication among stakeholders, improve consistency, and allow people to concentrate on value-added and strategic activities.
Paolo Albini, Chief Supply Chain, Digital and IT Officer at Saipem, commented: “Saipem’s goal is to define a new way of delivering projects by leveraging on our deep experience and the potential offered by Artificial Intelligence applications to develop optimized, fast and innovative engineering solutions that enable our clients to reduce the time-to-market and support them in the path towards Net Zero”.
“Our ambition is to leverage on AVEVA and Saipem’s unique expertise, to jointly develop cutting-edge AI-driven engineering solutions. The new solutions will enhance the performance, efficiency and delivery of world-class engineering projects, ensuring that the carbon footprint is minimised at each step” commented Caspar Herzberg, CEO, AVEVA.
