Rockwell Automation and Schlumberger have closed on their new joint venture, Sensia, the oil and gas industry’s first digitally enabled, integrated automation solutions provider.
The joint venture leverages Schlumberger’s deep oil and gas domain knowledge and Rockwell Automation’s rich automation and information expertise to address this fast-growing market.
“Sensia will make industrial-scale digitalization and seamless automation available to every oil and gas company so their assets can operate more productively and profitably. It will make oil and gas production, transportation and processing simpler, safer, and more secure,” said Allan Rentcome, chief executive officer of Sensia.
Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Sensia is projected to generate initial annual revenue of $400 million and employ approximately 1,000 employees.
Sensia will operate as an independent entity, with Rockwell Automation owning 53 percent and Schlumberger owning 47 percent of the joint venture. Rockwell Automation made a $250 million cash payment to Schlumberger at closing.
