Wood partners with Databricks to help energy companies realize greater value from AI. 11/3/2026 7:00:00 AM * Helping energy companies move from AI experimentation to practical, enterprise-scale deployment * Combining Databricks' market-leading Data + AI Platform with Wood's engineering, operational and asset-domain expertise * Building on proven collaboration, including an AI-enabled engineering solution that improved productivity by 75% and accelerated project delivery Wood has announced a partnership with Databricks to help energy companies turn AI investments into measurable operational and business outcomes across the full asset lifecycle. Building on several years of successful collaboration, the partnership combines Databricks' market-leading Data + AI Platform with Wood's engineering, operational and asset-domain expertise to help clients apply AI at scale to complex industrial challenges. The partnership brings together Databricks' industry-leading data and AI capabilities with Wood's deep understanding of how complex industrial assets are designed, delivered, operated and maintained, enabling clients to translate data-driven insights into practical operational and commercial outcomes. Together, the companies will help organizations improve decision-making, increase productivity and enhance project and operational performance across the asset lifecycle. By combining AI-driven insights with deep engineering expertise, organizations can uncover new opportunities, solve more complex challenges and make better-informed decisions, while automating routine activities and enabling specialists to focus on higher-value technical work. The partnership builds on successful collaboration with shared clients, including the delivery of an AI-enabled engineering solution that reduced the time required for critical-path document review and quality assurance by 75%, accelerating project delivery while maintaining engineering oversight. Dr David Cole FREng, Chief Operating Officer - Consulting at Wood, said: "Technology alone doesn't deliver outcomes. Real value comes from combining advanced AI capabilities with deep engineering and operational expertise. With Databricks, Hydrocarbon Processing is helping clients apply AI to improve project execution, optimize asset performance and unlock measurable value across the asset lifecycle. "This partnership will help clients move beyond AI experimentation and deploy practical, scalable solutions that drive productivity, support better decision-making and deliver tangible business results." Mustafa Ashraf, UAE Country Manager at Databricks, added: "Energy companies have no shortage of data or AI ambition, but too many projects stall because AI lacks the engineering and operational context needed to make decisions about real-world assets. Wood brings deep expertise in how complex industrial assets are designed, built, operated and maintained and the Databricks Data + AI Platform gives that knowledge a governed foundation to scale. Together, we're helping customers move AI out of the pilot phase and into the everyday work that drives safer, more productive and more profitable operations."
Wood Group workers launch strike across Harbour Energy offshore platforms. Published Nov 3, 2026 6:49 am ET Wood Group offshore workers have started a fresh 48-hour strike affecting five Harbour Energy-operated platforms, with further industrial action planned later in November amid a dispute over pay and working conditions. The latest stoppage began on November 3 and is scheduled to end on November 4, while another 48-hour strike is planned for November 17-18, trade union Unite informed. The industrial action affects the Britannia, Jasmine, Judy, Lomond and North Everest platforms, involving electrical, production, instrument and mechanical technicians employed by Wood Group. The dispute centres on what Unite describes as cuts to workers' pay and conditions, including the issuing of fire-and-rehire notices to dozens of employees. "Unite will not accept or tolerate the Wood Group slashing our members' pay and conditions. It is disgraceful that this profitable company has issued fire and rehire notices to dozens of workers," said Sharon Graham, Unite's general secretary. The union said the strike action, alongside an ongoing overtime ban, was affecting operations on Harbour Energy's offshore assets, with further disruption expected as industrial action continues. "Our members have no option but to escalate their strike action," added Vic Fraser, Unite industrial officer.
