Nasser said Aramco was discussing 500 use cases in 2026.\n\nUse cases moved from pilots to deployment: 100 use cases. Nasser said 100 use cases had advanced from pilots to deployment.\n\nRealized technology value in 2023–2024: 6 billion USD. Company-reported realized business value across 2023 and 2024, as stated by Nasser.\n\nAI share of reported technology value: >50 percent. Nasser said more than half of the $6 billion realized value was AI-related.\n\nEmployees trained on AI: >6000 employees.

Nasser compared current use across more than 90% of the productive zone with over 80% previously.\n\nProductivity increase in some wells: 30–40 percent.
