The combined industry-leading lidar capabilities and software solutions will help mitigate risk to critical pipeline and utility infrastructure.
DENVER — Woolpert, a premier architecture, engineering, and geospatial (AEG) firm, announced today that it has forged a strategic partnership with Teren, a leader in AI-powered, lidar-enabled environmental intelligence capabilities. This collaboration will advance the collection and application of lidar data for oil and gas infrastructure, providing next-generation geospatial solutions to address these challenges worldwide.
Through this partnership, Woolpert has acquired Teren’s lidar operations and will benefit from Teren’s analytics and software-as-a-service platform, Terevue. Woolpert also hired Teren Chief Commercial Officer and Head of Energy Operations Sam Acheson to provide focused support to key energy clients. Teren will benefit by expanding its geospatial reach globally and building on Woolpert’s established presence in energy, transportation, government, mining, and renewable markets. Both companies will continue to operate independently.
“We pride ourselves on providing easy-to-access, actionable geospatial intelligence for infrastructure and community risk and resilience in real time,” Teren CEO and Founder Tobias Kraft said. “Collaborating with Woolpert accelerates our ability to deliver these insights, allowing organizations to proactively address environmental threats.”
Woolpert President and CEO Neil Churman said: “This partnership with Teren is an ideal way for us to leverage our emerging geospatial technologies to better support our clients’ critical infrastructure. We are also excited to bring Sam and his 25 years of experience and relationships working with the industry’s top oil & gas, utilities, and energy companies to Woolpert. I am looking forward to what our teams can do together.”
