PDO Goes All-In on Digital at COMEX 2025

7 September 2025

Who said oil and gas can’t be digital? PDO’s here to prove otherwise.

Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) is stepping into the spotlight at this year’s COMEX Global Technology Show (8–11 September at OCEC), showing off just how far they’ve come in their digital glow-up. As a main sponsor, PDO isn’t just talking tech — they’re showing how data, AI, and automation are rewriting the rules of the energy game.

The Bigger Picture
COMEX 2025 is bringing together tech innovators, government leaders, and global delegations, all under one roof. Expect everything from AI and cloud to cybersecurity, health tech, and agri-tech. There’ll be startup pavilions, workshops, and plenty of interactive zones — basically, a full-on tech playground.

PDO’s Digital Flex
PDO is rolling out its transformation strategy across five pillars: smarter ways of working, governance, talent, operational excellence, and cutting-edge tech. Think of it as a total digital makeover — from modernising resource management with SAP systems to revamping how procurement and talent development work.

But the real showstoppers?

  • Predictive Maintenance (DPM): IoT + AI teaming up to keep equipment running smoothly.
  • ADAM: a generative AI brain for engineers, giving instant access to procedures, lessons, and guidelines.
  • Tanseeq: an AI tool that literally maps out wells smarter and faster, boosting efficiency while cutting risks.

It’s all about turning raw data into smart decisions — and making a real impact.

Why It Matters
Eng. Ali Al Lamki, PDO’s Digital & IT Director, summed it up perfectly: it’s not just about the tech, it’s about resilience, innovation, and creating value for Oman’s future.

Visitors to PDO’s booth will get hands-on with live demos, Q&As, and interactive sessions. Plus, PDO is signing seven MoUs during the event, cementing its role as one of Oman’s top innovation leaders.

Bottom line: PDO isn’t just keeping up with digital transformation — they’re driving it, proving that the future of energy is smarter, faster, and way more connected.
