DUBAI — Abu Dhabi artificial intelligence firm Presight bought a 51% stake in AIQ, a joint technology venture between the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and G42, a major Abu Dhabi-based AI and cloud company.
The new ownership structure will see ADNOC holding 49% of the company and giving it a valuation of $1.4 billion, according to a joint company press release.
ADNOC will in turn get a 4% stake in Presight, as it aims to integrate AI into more of its operations and services.
AIQ uses AI and machine learning to improve processes in the oil and gas industry.
