Aramco Digital, a Saudi Industrial AI company, and Avathon, the leader in Autonomy for Operations, have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate Industrial AI adoption across energy, mining, aerospace and transportation sectors in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and global industrial markets.
The partnership combines Aramco Digital's deep industrial expertise and technology capabilities with Avathon's proven Physical AI and Autonomy Platform to transform how complex industrial operations are understood, optimized and executed. By bringing together decades of Aramco operating knowledge with Avathon's experience applying AI in complex industrial environments, the companies aim to help organizations move beyond fragmented data and manual decision-making toward increasingly intelligent and industrial operations.
For Aramco Digital, the partnership accelerates the development and commercialization of Industrial AI solutions that enable increasingly intelligent and autonomous operations. By combining Aramco Digital's industrial expertise with Avathon's capabilities in agentic AI, computational digital twins, manufacturing, energy optimization, and safe autonomous operations, the partnership aims to enable faster deployment of proven solutions across the Kingdom and global industrial markets.
The companies aim to also apply AI to areas such as advanced materials, increasingly complex planning, logistics and supply chain operations, helping organizations make better decisions across interconnected industrial systems rather than optimizing individual processes in isolation.
"Aramco Digital is uniquely positioned to translate Aramco's industrial scale and expertise into technology that can transform industry globally," said Dr. Ashraf AlTahini, CEO of Aramco Digital. "Our partnership with Avathon combines that foundation with proven Industrial AI capabilities to address some of the most important challenges facing industrial organizations. Together, we aim to create significant value and accelerate the growth of our Industrial AI business."
Aramco Digital and Avathon will bring their distinctive capabilities to customers and partners across energy, aerospace and defense, mining, manufacturing, maritime, logistics and other critical industries in Saudi Arabia and international markets.
"Industrial AI is moving beyond systems that simply analyze what happened or recommend what to do next. The opportunity is to create systems that understand complex operations and increasingly act on their own," said Pervinder Johar, CEO of Avathon. "Aramco Digital brings an extraordinary combination of industrial expertise and scale, while Avathon brings a proven platform for turning industrial data and knowledge into autonomous action. Together, we can help organizations unlock a new level of operational performance."
