Emerson

American industrial products and services provider Emerson has consolidated its position in the Middle East and Africa’s oil and gas market over the last three decades, by virtue of its 11 regional offices and 19 service locations. Emerson is working on several projects to entrench itself in the region; its under-construction base in the Dhahran Techno Valley (DTV) for instance. The objective of the $25mn facility, which will be completed in January 2018, is to cater to the oil and gas, mining, and other industries in Saudi Arabia. In terms of its oil and gas portfolio, Emerson has recently launched Plantweb Digital Ecosystem – an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)-based offering, that enables process industries achieve ‘operational certainty’.
