The meeting took place in the context of Petrovietnam accelerating the implementation of its digital transformation strategy, gradually mastering foundational technologies, and aiming to build a modern, efficient industrial and energy group operating on the basis of data and digital technology applications.

Speaking at the meeting, Petrovietnam General Director Le Ngoc Son emphasized that the application of science and technology and digital transformation are essential requirements in the context of the energy industry facing many new challenges and opportunities, especially during the period when Petrovietnam aims to enter the Top 500 largest enterprises in the world. Strengthening the application of digital technologies, especially AI and IoT, is identified as a crucial solution to improve management capacity, optimize production and business operations, and enhance operational efficiency throughout the Group.

Petrovietnam General Director Le Ngoc Son expressed his hope that, through enhanced cooperation with major technology partners such as Qualcomm and VNPT, Petrovietnam could seek opportunities for collaboration and improve the efficiency of digital transformation and the application of science and technology.

In this context, Petrovietnam clearly defines its goal of gradually mastering core technologies such as AI, Digital Twin, IoT, and high-performance computing (HPC), closely linked to the production practices of the energy and industrial sectors, especially in the exploration, exploitation, processing, refining, petrochemicals, electricity, and gas industries.

Based on Petrovietnam's technology strategy until 2030, with a vision to 2050, AI and IoT are identified as priority technologies, playing a central role in building smart energy enterprises that operate based on data and automation. Petrovietnam is simultaneously implementing the following pillars: building a unified data platform, developing private cloud computing and HPC infrastructure, strengthening cybersecurity for IT/OT systems, and integrating AI into core operations in the energy sector.

Mr. Suri Maddhula - Vice President of IoT Solutions Product Management and Mr. Dev Singh - Vice President of Business Development at Qualcomm listened to presentations from Petrovietnam.

On behalf of the Group's leadership, Petrovietnam General Director Le Ngoc Son expressed his hope that, through enhanced cooperation with major technology partners such as Qualcomm and VNPT, Petrovietnam could seek opportunities for collaboration, improve the efficiency of digital transformation, apply science and technology, and gradually build a modern, synchronized digital technology platform suitable to the Group's specific operations. This would enhance the effectiveness of digital transformation implementation and the ability to replicate application models throughout the entire system.

During the meeting, the parties discussed the possibility of cooperation in researching and applying advanced technological solutions suitable to Petrovietnam's specific operations, and shared experiences in implementing digital transformation at large corporations and businesses worldwide. VNPT was assessed as a partner with strengths in digital infrastructure and operational system integration, while Qualcomm has extensive experience in providing technology platforms for various industrial sectors.
