Increasing Resilience, Profitability, and Sustainability in the Oil and Gas Industry - Futurum Tech Podcast The Intelligent Enterprise Industry Series

This episode of the Futurum Tech Podcast - Interview Series is the third installment of our Intelligent Enterprise Industry Series — done in partnership with SAP. I welcomed David Shimbo and Craig Kindleman, two executive advisors for the oil and gas industry at SAP to discuss how they are focusing on furthering their intelligent enterprise story.   The Interconnected Oil and Gas Sector   SAP recently partnered with Oxford Economics to conduct a research study to identify how an interconnected mindset impacts organizations including how data has impacted the supply chain and ways organizations are building better workforces. The report includes findings from 3,000 senior executives, including 300 from the industrial manufacturing sector.   My conversation with David and Craig revolved around the following:   How volatile oil prices are impacting the operational strategies in the different petroleum segments. The digital transformation initiativesorganizations in the oil and gas industry are undertaking. How organizations within the oil and gas industry are innovating a mostly stagnant industry. Ways organizations are improving productivity and operational efficiencies while reducing costs.   David, Craig and I explored some of the findings of the Oxford Economics report: Thinking Beyond the Barrel: Increasing Agility Through Systems Thinking that will have a big impact on the future. We only explored a few topics in the report and there’s so much more to it.
