Agora edge AI

MoU combines low-power compute and SLB edge solutions for well, facility and production decisions.

Edge processing places computation near equipment. The agreement does not establish completed joint deployments, latency improvements or autonomous control authority. Its operating value depends on a subsequent implemented use case.
