C3.ai also announced that it had renewed and expanded its strategic partnership with oilfield services provider Baker Hughes (BKR). The multi-year agreement “focuses on deepening co-selling efforts, co-investment in AI solutions, and scaling deployments of joint solutions that are proven to improve production efficiency, reduce downtime, and increase operational visibility across assets in the world’s largest oil and gas companies.”
