On November 2 (local time), the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference 2026 opened at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. Themed “Unite Where Energy Security Takes Shape”, the exhibition focuses on energy security, digital‑intelligent transformation and low‑carbon development, gathering more than 2,250 exhibitors from around the world. Shenkai showcased solutions for AI‑powered energy, deep‑earth and deep‑sea applications. Shenkai, as an AI strategic partner of the conference, was invited to the opening ceremony, where Zhang Enyu, President of Shenkai Co., Ltd., Wang Binjie, Vice‑President of Shenkai Co., Ltd., and Liu Guande, General Manager of Shenkai Blue‑Ocean Intelligent Information, were in attendance.

At this conference, Shenkai set up a dedicated booth, AI‑S8, in the AI Zone, exhibiting alongside global intelligent solution providers including Microsoft, Huawei and IBM. It showcased Shenkai’s product portfolio of AI drilling software and AI agents, illustrating the complete integrated closed‑loop business model of “hardware equipment + AI‑powered decision support + engineering services”.

| Strategic Speech — From Real‑Time Drilling Data Acquisition to Instant Decision‑Making
During the thematic keynote session in the AI Zone, Liu Guande delivered a keynote speech titled “AI Agents: From Real‑Time Drilling Data Acquisition to Instant Decision‑Making”. Centering on the full chain of real‑time drilling data acquisition, cloud‑based analysis and agent‑aided judgment while drilling, he introduced the company’s engineering practices of applying AI agents to assist drilling engineers and geologists in rapid data analysis, modeling and cognitive judgment. At present, Shenkai Blue‑Ocean Intelligent Information has developed five digital‑intelligent products: Drill Pro for drilling optimization, Pilot Cloud “Navigator” (AI geosteering), Target “Aurora” (trajectory design and collision avoidance), WellTouch for remote data transmission, and Deep Drilling Agent “Lan Xiaozhi”. Leveraging the AI‑Drilling Cloud Platform System, it forms a closed loop of wellsite sensing, cloud‑based analysis and AI‑aided judgment, driving the upgrade of drilling operations from “experience‑driven” to “data‑driven with intelligent support”. Relevant products have been adopted by more than 30 oilfield operators at home and abroad, serving over 3,000 well operations in total. The average drilling cycle is shortened by 15%, and the average reservoir encounter rate exceeds 90%.


After the speech, representatives from multiple international oil companies, oilfield service companies, consulting firms and technical partners visited the booth, expressing intentions for technical coordination and business negotiation regarding data access, local deployment and joint application of the Deep Drilling Agent.

| High‑Level Meeting — Joining Hands with ADNOC Drilling to Reach Consensus on Implementation of AI Drilling Technologies
In the afternoon of the same day, the delegation led by Zhang Enyu was invited to a special technical meeting with Abdulla Ateya Al Messabi, Chief Executive Officer of ADNOC Drilling. ADNOC Drilling is accelerating the large‑scale implementation of automation, artificial intelligence and robotics in its drilling operations system. Both sides conducted in‑depth discussions on core AI‑drilling scenarios, focusing on real‑time data acquisition, multi‑well collaborative monitoring, while‑drilling parameter optimization, AI geosteering and Remote Technical Operations Center (RTOC). They evaluated integration paths for AI agents into existing wellsite operation systems. Meanwhile, Liu Guande presented the AI product architecture, deployment prerequisites and field engineering cases of Blue‑Ocean Intelligent Information.

After thorough exchanges, the two sides reached a consensus to carry out the phased implementation of Shenkai’s AI drilling software, and defined follow‑up technical coordination, data‑environment adaptation and implementation plans. This meeting marks that Shenkai’s AI‑powered digital oil‑service capabilities have officially entered the technical evaluation and implementation pipeline of key national oil companies in the Middle East. A long‑term technology‑oriented collaboration mechanism with direct high‑level communication has been established, representing a key milestone for the company’s shift from product export to collaborative export of AI technologies.
In recent years, Chinese energy‑equipment enterprises have been accelerating their expansion from pure product export to general contracting, digital services and localized delivery. Adhering to its international development strategy, Shenkai is advancing its upgrade from equipment export to integrated export of technologies and services. It brings AI Digital Intelligent Wellsite Solutions to the global oil‑and‑gas market, contributing to efficiency improvement as well as green, low‑carbon and intelligent transformation of oil and gas exploration & development.
