China's high-tech robot dog boosts East Baghdad oilfield operations
Baghdad ( – Cutting-edge Chinese innovations are driving progress at the East Baghdad oilfield in the Nahrawan region, where a high-tech robot dog and an advanced DeepSeek-powered system are revolutionizing site operations.
These developments are improving both safety protocols and operational performance, marking a significant leap in Iraq's energy sector digitalization.
The robot dog, developed in China, is specially engineered for hazardous environments. It features blast-proof capabilities, AI-driven image recognition, infrared sensors, gas detection, and real-time, traceable data collection—making it a powerful tool for high-risk fieldwork.
The oilfield has been under the management of EBS Petroleum, an Iraqi subsidiary of China's ZhenHua Oil Co., since 2018. ZhenHua is part of the state-owned China North Industries Group (Norinco).
Through this collaboration, Chinese technology continues to play a vital role in modernizing Iraq's oil infrastructure and boosting the country's energy development.
