Organizations in the oil, gas and chemicals (OG&C) sector are accelerating their adoption of cloud-enabled technologies. They know that cloud can help them enhance operations, perform predictive maintenance, optimize supply chains, and leverage real-time analytics. However, modernization efforts often face steep challenges with complexity and costs.
Legacy system modernization, whether it’s from customized systems or off-the-shelf software, can be complex. However, careful integration of legacy systems—especially if it’s augmented by artificial intelligence (AI), a comprehensive cloud migration approach implementing risk-based security, and collaboration with trusted partners—can help untangle complexities and streamline modernization efforts.
With the acquisition of an EV charging company, a global energy leader faced challenges in migrating over 1,000 user accounts and emails, along with 30-plus applications, to its AWS domain. Deloitte used its cloud migration factory to streamline the effort. As a result, migration technical issues were minimized, and the project produced a 30% reduction in effort while maintaining full business continuity throughout the process.
Legacy system modernization is imperative for OG&C organizations, but it is also incredibly complex and can present many challenges. The right cloud migration strategy can help an OG&C enterprise navigate the journey and realize the ongoing benefits of cloud migration: optimized costs, more efficient operations, deeper insights into the business, and the potential for innovative new business models that can support lasting growth and business value.
