In a press release despatched to Rigzone by Pions’ Chief Transformation Officer (CTO) Toni Fadnes just lately, Pions, beforehand named eDrilling, introduced that it was “taking one other massive step on the trail towards Synthetic Engineering Intelligence (AEI)” and releasing Ida 2.0.
The corporate described Ida 2.0 as its most succesful AI Engineering Agent to this point within the assertion, noting that it delivers “important enhancements in pace, reliability, and high quality throughout all aims and job sorts”. Pions outlined that Ida 2.0 works throughout autonomous drilling operations, clever properly design and engineering, drilling engineer productiveness and knowledge administration, and drilling engineering giant language fashions (LLM).
“Extra clever, higher at following your directions, extra perceptive to nuanced intent, detailed and information-dense visualizations, deeper interactivity, and with augmented enterprise-level customization,” Pions stated within the assertion.

“From a system standpoint, the Ida 2.0 structure provides a lot improved stability, fault tolerance, and safety, making the system far more reliable additionally for manufacturing workloads,” it added.
“Expanded operational management and customization gives deep observability into agent conduct, a requisite for brokers to construct belief with human engineers and different customers,” it continued.
Pions revealed within the assertion that, in its inner benchmarks, Ida 2.0 “achieved important enchancment in job high quality in contrast with earlier fashions”.
“Testers highlighted the mannequin’s improved relevance, and construction in its responses, and reported she was simpler to know,” Pions added.
In a press release despatched to Rigzone by Fadnes again in June, Pions launched “the following era of Ida”.
On the time, Pions outlined that the up to date model “set… new requirements for superior reasoning and inference capabilities, in addition to improve[ed]… advanced job administration”.
“Additionally, a brand new highly effective function extractor considerably boosts Ida’s adaptability and generalization, permitting her to deal with advanced, real-world environments with elevated confidence and effectivity,” it added, touting the replace as “essentially the most important improve since December final yr”.
In a press release despatched to Rigzone by Pions, then eDrilling, again in August 2024, the corporate revealed that the “world’s first AI drilling engineer” was in coaching.
“We’re constructing collaborative AI companions that allow engineering groups to free as much as deal with strategic actions and try for extra formidable targets,” that assertion famous, highlighting that the corporate’s “first AI teammate” was named “Ida”.
Pions states on its website that it builds AI-powered engineers, “brokers that suppose, act, and collaborate with people to unravel the world’s hardest engineering issues”.
“Beginning with power and local weather, and increasing into the industries that form the long run,” the corporate’s website provides.
“Grounded in physics. Powered by innovation. Constructed to interrupt boundaries,” it continues.
On its website, Pions says it “develops autonomous engineering brokers designed to know, purpose, and resolve technical challenges with the precision of a top-tier engineer”.
“Constructed on many years of physics-based R&D, our expertise blends simulation, knowledge, and intelligence to ship real-world influence – at scale,” it notes.
The corporate states on its website that it envisions a future “the place engineers and AI work facet by facet, the place good brokers purpose like area specialists, act with autonomy, and speed up innovation throughout industries”.
“Our aim is to free engineers from handbook routines, to allow them to deal with shaping the way forward for power, infrastructure, and local weather options,” it provides.
In a launch despatched to Rigzone earlier this yr by Fadnes, eDrilling introduced that it had modified its identify to Pions “to mirror the corporate’s broader imaginative and prescient, evolving expertise, and rising ambitions”.
Pions CEO Caroline Vorpenes stated in that launch, “we’ve been on a journey of reinvention and I’m so excited we lastly get to share it with the world”.
“From conventional instruments to AI-powered engineers, from legacy software program to engineering, reimagined. A brand new identify that displays each the place we’ve been and the place we’re going,” Vorpenes added.
