Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and Abu Dhabi artificial intelligence company G42 are having early discussions about a possible flotation of their joint venture technology firm AIQ, two sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

AIQ, which is 60% owned by ADNOC and 40% by G42, uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to optimise processes, improve planning and increase profitability for ADNOC and the wider oil and gas industry.

The company is being considered for a possible initial public offering at the end of the year, said the sources, declining to be named as the matter is not public.

AIQ's owners are in the process of discussing whether to position the deal as an international transaction, or market the offering exclusively to the domestic investors, they said.
