Describe your project or startup in a few words
Let's introduce AI and High-tech solutions to E&P. KABAS's differentiation lies in its AI-powered Virtual Laboratory technology, providing an innovative approach to formulations optimizations
01.01 Describe your startup in more detail
KABAS is a technology company specialized in artificial intelligence and IT development applied to the oil and gas industry. Our multidisciplinary team combines in-depth industry knowledge with advanced expertise in artificial intelligence and software development. We take pride in our commitment to precision and performance, setting us apart. Our focus is on developing virtual laboratories for oil-related activities. These Virtual Laboratories (VL) will make a tremendous difference in terms of cost, time, and accuracy. Additionally, they aim to protect laboratory technicians from significant exposure to chemical substances. We started in the field of drilling fluids with Algerian companies, and are now expanding our work to other sectors in the Exploration and Production (E&P) industry
01.02 What is the main problem you are trying to solve?
The current procedure for optimizing drilling fluid formulations is so simple (without a research strategy adapted to the complexity of the problem), it does not in most cases give the right optimum*, that is to say, the right formulation from a technical point of view (it does not achieve the desired properties) and economic point of view (it does not perfectly minimize the cost of the formulation) • Sub-problem 1: Furthermore, it does not properly minimize the cost of the formulation; it is itself costly due to the costs of laboratory tests. • Sub-problem 2: Due to the prolonged exposure of laboratory workers to chemicals, it presents a risk to their health. • Sub-problem 3: this procedure requires very expensive laboratory calculation software because they are issued by the producers of the chemicals (generally multinationals) used in the formulations, and they require very exaggerated amounts.
01.03 Tell us the major benefits and/or advantages of using the product/service that your startup provides (at least 3).
VL is created with the aim of predicting laboratory test results, thereby significantly reducing the number of tests needed. This results in reduced costs associated with testing and minimal prolonged exposure of laboratory workers to chemicals. How ? We highlighted our LV through AI-based modeling to predict lab test results. 1. Cost reduction. 2. Save time. 3. Reduction of risks and chemical exposure 4. For businesses in Algeria, our AI-SaaS solution will be hosted on local servers located in Algeria. This guarantees data confidentiality
01.04 Please describe who exactly your startup’s product/service is aimed at serving. Who are the targeted beneficiaries?
Drilling fluid companies and drilling companies at the national and international level for the VL of drilling fluids. And for other sectors, we develop a VL for each field we want to enter Exponential growth potential! We have strong growth potential, because we aim to collaborate with multinational companies present in Algeria which have subsidiaries all over the world. At the national level there are 4 service companies specializing in drilling fluids such as DFSP, EMEC, AVA and MI. where each one needs at least 4 to 5 licenses per year. And in general, calculation software is very expensive, especially when AI is applied.
