EBITDA reached $37.9million, reflecting a 21% margin, and the company closed the year with a $295.3million order backlog, reinforcing its position as a strategic technology partner for the global energy sector.
“Our ambition for 2025 was to strengthen our performance across the board, and I’m pleased to see clear progress in revenue, profitability, orders and customer and employee satisfaction,” adds Dagfinn Ringaas, CEO of Cegal.
Supporting the energy sector’s transition to AI driven operations
As energy companies accelerate their adoption of AI, the need for structured, accessible, and domain‑rich data has become critical. Cegal’s combined industry software, deep energy expertise, AI capabilities, and data expertise enables organisations to structure and prepare their data.
"Business value truly accelerates when you combine generic AI technology with deep domain expertise.” Ringaas added. This is where Cegal stands out – bringing data, applications, and infrastructure together in the cloud, to help customers translate data and technology into measurable business value, resulting in significant IT cost reductions.
Continued global expansion
2025 marked Cegal’s 25th anniversary - a year also defined by a significant strengthening of its global footprint. The company expanded its presence across the UK, USA, Southeast Asia, and Australia, securing new contracts and deepening existing relationships with customers including Petronas, Equinor, Origin Energy, Harbour Energy, Interwell, and Å Energi.
Ringaas continues: "2025 was the year our new strategy truly took hold. Cegal has entered 2026 with continued strong demand for its expertise in AI, cloud platforms, data management, and analytics, supported by increased efficiency gains and reduced IT costs for several major customers.”
