Q/A
Q
How can SAP solutions help manage the surge in drill orders in Q1 2025?
A
With a 10% uptick in drill orders signaling upstream investment, SAP tools like S/4HANA and Integrated Business Planning (IBP) enable real-time visibility into supply chain logistics. They streamline procurement, track rig deployment, and optimize inventory—turning increased activity into operational efficiency and profit.
Q
What role does SAP play in aligning oil and gas supply chains with ESG mandates?
A
SAP’s sustainability solutions, like the Green Ledger and Carbon Footprint Analytics, integrate with supply chain modules to monitor emissions from drilling to refining. This helps companies adapt processes to stricter ESG standards, balance compliance with production goals, and report progress transparently.
Q
Can SAP improve midstream logistics as drill orders increase supply volumes?
A
Yes, SAP Transportation Management and Logistics Business Network enhance midstream agility. They optimize pipeline scheduling, storage, and transport to handle higher volumes from upstream activity, ensuring seamless flow to downstream refineries without bottlenecks.
Q
How does SAP innovation support downstream refining adjustments to new supply realities?
A
SAP Digital Manufacturing and Advanced Planning optimize refining processes by adapting to shifting crude inputs from new drill orders. Real-time analytics help refine product mixes efficiently, maintaining quality and profitability as supply dynamics evolve.
Q
What are the benefits of using SAP to integrate the entire oil and gas value chain?
A
SAP’s unified platform connects upstream exploration, midstream logistics, and downstream refining into a single ecosystem. This end-to-end visibility reduces silos, improves decision-making, and drives resilience—critical as market volatility and ESG pressures intensify.
