Oilfield services company Schlumberger has announced a partnership with the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum for the Egypt Upstream Gateway (EUG) project.

The Egypt Upstream Gateway project will help digitise subsurface information. It will deliver a platform to improve the safety of Egypt’s subsurface data.

Schlumberger CEO Olivier Le Peuch said: “Schlumberger is very proud to have been selected for this unique partnership.

“We’re looking forward to creating an industry-first solution, that will transform not only the Egypt oil and gas core processes but also will serve as a benchmark for many countries and basins in the future.”

Schlumberger said that by leveraging its GAIA digital subsurface platform the EUG provides value-added solutions.

The company’s DELFI cognitive exploration and production (E&P) environment capabilities and technologies power the GAIA platform, launched by Schlumberger’s geophysical data solutions division WesternGeco.
