ABB and Bilfinger to help industries boost efficiencies
ABB has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and a Framework Agreement with international industrial services provider Bilfinger to collaborate on instrumentation and digital solutions boosting operational efficiencies in the energy and process industries.
The agreement aims to strengthen the offering of instrumentation and digital technologies to several industries including energy, chemicals and petrochemicals, pharma and biopharma and oil and gas, among others. The key focus in the energy sector is on sustainable sources that drive the transition, particularly in the hydrogen and carbon capture (CCUS) market.
The collaboration will see the two companies combine their respective strengths. ABB offers a broad and innovative portfolio of instrumentation and digital solutions, while Bilfinger brings comprehensive expertise in both conventional and renewable energy contexts and a portfolio that bene-fits process industries along the entire value chain.
"At Bilfinger, globally standardised, digital services are considered an important driver of growth. Together with ABB, we share a common understanding of these solutions as strategically essential to enhancing the industry's efficiency and sustainability," said Gerald Pilotto, Chief Products and Innovation Officer at Bilfinger. "We look forward to addressing our customers' operational efficiency needs with joined forces."
"We are happy to collaborate with Bilfinger with the aim of delivering efficiency benefits to customers in target industries," said Amina Hamidi, Managing Director, Business Line Instrumentation, ABB Measurement and Analytics. "It is becoming increasingly important for industries to measure end-to-end throughout their production processes. Together, we can ensure the performance of every step is optimised, helping process industries perform leaner and cleaner, and deliver efficiency gains."
