Oil And Gas Mobile Adoption Report

By Syclo LLC

Oil and gas organizations have always been known for using the latest advances in technology to manage processes, people and information. Seeking to streamline every part of the value chain — from exploration to transportation of processed products — many have invested heavily in IT infrastructure, asset and supply chain management software, advanced seismic tools and powerful integrated digital oilfield solutions. Successful deployments in these areas have delivered marked improvements in productivity and the quality of many processes. Yet in today's hyper-competitive energy environment, many E&P, oilfield service, midstream and downstream organizations are finding that these improvements are not enough and are turning to mobile technology as the next catalyst for growth and profitability.

This report briefly reviews the state of mobile adoption among oil and gas organizations and outlines several high-payoff mobilization areas for managers to consider. It also discusses criteria for the selection of mobile solutions and provides some best practices for their implementation within the vertical.
