Kongsberg Digital

Kongsberg Digital was established in 2016 as a subsidiary of KONGSBERG. The company consolidated oil and gas technologies from Kongsberg Maritime with ongoing digital initiatives focused on the digitalisation of heavy industry. Its official materials describe it as having been renamed Falkor, with the same team and mission but a sharpened focus. The current official website presents Falkor as a KONGSBERG company and identifies it as a majority-owned subsidiary. The business develops industrial software for complex operations and asset-intensive sectors. Its offering brings together industrial data, digital twins, simulation, physics-based AI, operational tools and workflow software. The stated aim is to connect people, systems and workflows, giving industrial teams a shared operational picture and helping them move from reactive work toward more informed, risk-aware decisions. Its platform is described as an intelligence layer for industrial data and execution, alongside an operational layer where people, data, simulations and AI agents can work in shared context. The company's product descriptions include digital-twin technology, maritime-related products, industrial visualisation and collaboration, maintenance workflows, risk management and operational work tools. Its website identifies energy, utilities and chemicals companies among the users of its solutions, and describes a growing presence across Europe, North America and Asia. It also points to domain experience spanning oil and gas, maritime, defence, IT and manufacturing. A Shell Global Enterprise Framework Agreement to digitalise Shell's global assets is one documented commercial milestone; the supplied material also mentions a Chevron agreement and the acquisition of industrial software company Visavi, without giving complete details for those events. The supplied official sources describe the brand transition to Falkor as current, including a news item dated June 1, 2026. Accordingly, this dossier treats Kongsberg Digital as the former name of the active Falkor business, rather than as a separately presented current brand. The available evidence does not identify an individual founder or named executives.

Kongsberg Digital was founded in 2016 as a subsidiary of KONGSBERG. According to the company's official history, it brought together oil and gas technologies from Kongsberg Maritime and ongoing digital initiatives aimed at heavy-industry digitalisation. It therefore began as a dedicated digital business within the wider KONGSBERG group, applying the group's engineering background to software and digital solutions for industrial operations. The company moved early into digital twins and maritime-related software. Its official history dates the beta launch of Digital Twin and Maritime products to 2019. In 2020, it signed a Shell Global Enterprise Framework Agreement to digitalise Shell's global assets using digital-twin technology. These milestones indicate a progression from consolidating existing industrial capabilities to offering digital solutions for large-scale enterprise asset operations. The supplied company history lists subsequent milestones for 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, but does not provide their descriptions in the available text. It specifically mentions a Chevron agreement and continued expansion, as well as the acquisition of Visavi, an industrial software company specialising in visualisation and collaboration for heavy industry; the evidence does not specify the exact dates or full terms of these developments. The company's current official materials use the Falkor name and describe the business as formerly Kongsberg Digital. The About page says it remains part of KONGSBERG and a majority-owned subsidiary, with its headquarters in Oslo and a growing presence across Europe, North America and Asia. The official rebranding news item is dated June 1, 2026. Falkor describes the transition as a new name for the same team and mission, with a sharpened focus on putting industrial intelligence into the hands of people operating complex industries. Its current product portfolio is presented under the Falkor name and includes a platform, an operational layer, and workflow offerings for maintenance, risk and operations.
