Halliburton Launches AI-Powered Agile Asset Management for Oil and Gas Investment Decisions

Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) introduced Agile Asset Management, a new AI-powered, cloud-based Landmark solution designed to help oil and gas companies evaluate field-development alternatives and accelerate capital investment decisions.

The platform connects subsurface, wells, facilities and economic workflows in a single environment, allowing teams to compare development concepts against corporate metrics and maintain a traceable record of the data and assumptions behind each investment case.

Agile Asset Management also incorporates agentic AI for data retrieval, quality checks and user guidance. Halliburton said the system is intended to reduce the time between initial development concepts and investment decisions while keeping technical analysis and management judgment central to the process.

Aker BP co-developed the solution with Halliburton as part of its effort to reduce time to first oil by 50%. The company said the platform allows teams to evaluate more development alternatives, identify cross-domain risks earlier and maintain an auditable decision-making process.

The system uses an open architecture that can integrate Halliburton software, third-party applications and customer-developed tools, allowing operators to retain existing workflows while coordinating them through a common process.

The launch expands Halliburton’s digital and AI capabilities in upstream planning, with a focus on improving project economics, development speed and coordination across multidisciplinary teams.

Halliburton Wins Eni Deepwater Contract for Cyprus Cronos Gas Project

Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) secured a multi-year bundled well construction and completions contract from Eni for the Cronos ultra-deepwater development in Block 6 of Cyprus’ Exclusive Economic Zone. The award expands Halliburton’s offshore presence in the Eastern Mediterranean, an emerging natural gas development region.

Under the contract, Halliburton will provide integrated drilling, well construction, automation and completion services for exploration and development wells. Combining these services under one contract is intended to reduce operational complexity and improve execution efficiency.

The scope includes drilling fluids, directional drilling, LOGIX automation and remote operations, cementing, surface well testing and coiled tubing. Halliburton will support the project using its existing infrastructure and regional capabilities in Cyprus.

The Cronos award strengthens Halliburton’s longstanding relationship with Eni and could position the company for additional deepwater work as natural gas development expands across the Eastern Mediterranean.
Halliburton Wins bp Contract for Bumerangue Deepwater Field in Brazil

Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) has secured an integrated services contract from bp for the first appraisal campaign at the Bumerangue field offshore Brazil, strengthening the oilfield-services company's position in the strategically important deepwater market.

The contract covers a comprehensive package of drilling and reservoir-evaluation services designed to accelerate appraisal of bp's Bumerangue discovery. Financial terms of the award were not disclosed.

Why the Contract Matters for Halliburton

The award gives Halliburton exposure to an important deepwater appraisal program as bp evaluates the commercial potential of its Bumerangue discovery.

Halliburton will combine multiple drilling and evaluation services into an integrated execution model, reducing operational complexity and helping bp move more quickly through the appraisal process. Its LOGIX automation and remote-operations technology will also be deployed to improve drilling efficiency and consistency.

Digital technology is a central part of the contract. Halliburton will use data, AI and advanced drilling technologies to provide real-time insights across well planning, drilling, execution and reservoir evaluation.

Deepwater Brazil Remains a Key Opportunity

Brazil is one of the world's most important offshore oil and gas markets, making major appraisal and development programs strategically significant for global oilfield-service providers.

For Halliburton, the bp award reinforces its competitive position in complex deepwater projects and demonstrates its ability to combine drilling, reservoir evaluation, automation, software and local expertise under a single contract.

The immediate financial contribution was not disclosed, but successful appraisal of Bumerangue could potentially create additional service opportunities if bp ultimately moves the field toward development and production.
