INDUSTRY VALUE NETWORK GROUP for Oil and Gas
Solutions and Services for the Hydrocarbon Supply Chain
The hydrocarbon supply chain operates within an extremely volatile and complex commodity market. This volatility and complexity drives the need for oil and gas enterprises to optimize supply chains and combine real-time financial valuations and costs with efficient physical movement and manufacturing practices.
Companies engaged in each section of the hydrocarbon supply chain, from supply to refining, marketing, distribution, and retailing, must re-evaluate and streamline their business process regularly to adapt to volatile markets, maintain sustainable and profitable growth, while ensuring regulatory compliance.
As members of the Industry Value Network group for oil and gas, the partners chosen to focus on the hydrocarbon supply chain area are co-innovating with SAP to tackle industry challenges relative to the supply, transmission, refining, marketing, distribution, and retailing processes, such as:
- Converging the financial and physical position management within supply and trading
- Providing visibility into and management of the complete crude-to-pump hydrocarbon value chain
- Optimizing pricing strategies and execution across all channels of trade and products, from refinery gate to pump
