Global technology company SLB has announced a three-year agreement with Azule Energy to extend and enhance the use of its enterprise digital platform across Azule’s operations in Angola

The platform aims to drive more consistent execution, speed up decision-making, and support reliable energy delivery throughout Azule’s portfolio.

Azule Energy, a joint venture between bp and Eni and the largest independent energy producer in Angola, manages some of the country’s most complex assets. This new agreement builds on two years of Delfi use within Azule’s reservoir organization, where the platform supports reservoir studies, modelling, simulation, and well planning workflows, while enabling enterprise-wide digital integration by connecting reservoir workflows with wider operational data environments over time.

“Azule operates large, complex energy assets where execution reliability and consistency matter,” said ND Maduemezia, president, Europe and Africa, SLB.

“This agreement expands the use of an enterprise digital platform that connects workflows and data, strengthening and accelerating decision-making and improving execution predictability in support of reliable energy delivery in Angola.”

The agreement highlights Azule’s shift toward enterprise-scale digital operations, leveraging SLB’s platform and cloud-based capabilities. Implementation is supported through the SLB Luanda Performance Center, which allows digital solutions to be deployed and maintained locally.

The platform supports critical workflows across Azule’s reservoir and planning functions, with gradual integration into broader operational data systems. It also positions Azule to quickly adopt emerging digital and AI-driven technologies, enabling continuous performance enhancements.

Early results demonstrate tangible benefits: integrated workflows, including DrillPlan coherent well planning and engineering solutions, have shortened planning cycles from days to hours while boosting automation and reducing manual coordination.

The enterprise platform strengthens execution consistency across Azule’s large, mature operations, where operational discipline is key to sustaining performance.

Key Points:

• SLB has signed a three-year agreement with Azule Energy, a joint venture of bp and Eni, to continue and expand the use of its Delfi digital platform across Azule’s Angolan operations.
• The agreement reinforces execution consistency across large, mature energy assets, supporting reliable energy delivery.
• Early deployments show operational benefits, with integrated well planning workflows, including DrillPlan, reducing planning cycles from days to hours while increasing automation.
