Terra Drone Corporation (Terra Drone) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Aramco, a leading integrated energy and chemicals company in Saudi Arabia. This strategic partnership aims to drive innovation in drones, robotics, and AI-driven solutions for the oil and gas sector while supporting localization efforts.
The MoU aims to enhance collaboration between Terra Drone and Aramco to advance drone technologies for improved safety and efficiency in the energy sector. It serves as a platform for innovation in R&D, technology piloting, training, and localization, aligning with the shared vision of both organizations to develop solutions and local capabilities that support Saudi Arabia's economic goals.
The MoU was signed by Toru Tokushige, Founder & CEO of Terra Drone Corporation, and Khalid Y. Alqahtani, Aramco's Senior Vice President of Engineering Services.
In 2023, Terra Drone received funding from Wa'ed Ventures to localize advanced drone technologies. Following this investment, Terra Drone established Terra Drone Arabia, its Saudi Arabian branch, focusing on three strategic objectives: localizing its services in the short term, developing R&D and production facilities in the long term, and supporting job creation for skilled Saudis.
