Aramco and Emerson collaborate on strategic corrosion R&D

For Aramco, corrosion management is a strategic priority tied directly to operational performance, safety and environmental responsibility. Continuous corrosion monitoring eliminates difficult, inefficient and dangerous manual corrosion measurements and provides a reliable digital data stream for improved decision-making.

As part of the corrosion research and development collaboration, Aramco will combine its expertise and intellectual property with Emerson’s advanced corrosion solutions to digitalise and transform corrosion management. Emerson will provide its technology leadership in ultrasonic online corrosion monitoring technology; seamless wireless connectivity for corrosion wall thickness monitors, and real-time and continuous data collection to develop a fit-for-purpose corrosion management solution for Aramco processes.

“Emerson, with our complete technology stack, is uniquely positioned to co-innovate the next-generation corrosion monitoring solutions that are cost-effective, scalable and customised for Aramco,” said Ram Krishnan, chief operating officer for Emerson. “We look forward to working with Aramco to develop not only a corrosion solution for its vast operations, but one that will also be a valuable tool for many other industries.”
