Stuart Rogers, Chairman and Chief Executive of Arria NLG, commented: "We see strong commercial opportunity in the combination of IBM Watson's deep query functionality being combined with the Arria NLG Engine's ability to generate natural language and text. There are innumerable use cases in the oil and gas industry for our combined tool sets, which we look forward to pursuing with IBM Watson Group."
