Repsol extends its co-innovation collaboration with Accenture to continue advancing the goals of its digital program and accelerate the use of generative AI (gen AI) across the company, through the introduction and deployment of AI agent systems. This agentification will help improve the efficiency of processes as they are scaled across all company businesses.

Repsol's commitment to introducing AI agents is part of the evolution of its Digital Program, mainly as a result of the work carried out for more than two years in its Generative AI Competence Center. This has laid the foundations for analyzing and understanding the advantages of gen AI and defined a strategy to extend throughout the organization, thus, enabling its reinvention.

To this end, the multi-energy company will work closely with Accenture to build and deploy customized, autonomous AI agents, powered by components of the Accenture AI Refinery platform and the NVIDIA AI platform, including NVIDIA accelerated computing and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software. These agents will help reinvent and streamline processes into more dynamic and less complex workflows to boost productivity, from planning and forecasting to application maintenance and incident resolution, enabling Repsol employees to work in a faster, more efficient, and simpler way.

Repsol, with support from Accenture, will also explore the use of AI agents and NVIDIA Omniverse for digital twins and robotic solutions to help its employees perform maintenance and other activities in its industrial and logistics centers more efficiently. On the customer side, these technologies are designed to improve the clients’ experience, delivering personalized offers with greater accuracy and speed.

As part of this agreement, the multi-energy company will also expand the training plan for its employees, to facilitate their learning and training in these new technologies. Accenture will work together with Repsol to activate training and adoption programs for the workforce.

“With the extension of our collaboration with Accenture, we continue to drive our digitalization and AI push through the introduction of generative AI agents. We aspire to be one of the pioneering companies in the energy sector in the use of these technologies. Since we launched our Digital Program more than six years ago, Accenture has been providing us with tools to improve our efficiency and competitiveness and to continue transforming through technology,” said Josu Jon Imaz, CEO of Repsol.

“We are honored to extend our deep partnership with Repsol, a bold leader and early mover in the energy industry in embracing new technologies and new ways of working,” said Julie Sweet, Chairwoman and CEO of Accenture. “We are excited to help Repsol reach new levels of performance by working together to create tailored AI agents with the Accenture AI Refinery and the NVIDIA AI platform. Accelerating the use of AI agents will rapidly enhance efficiency and productivity, serve customers better with personalized experiences, and, ultimately, help Repsol gain competitive advantages.”
