EngineeringBeat: Accelerating legacy system modernization
Cloud migration for oil, gas and chemicals enterprises
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.

Discover cloud migration strategies that oil, gas and chemicals organizations can leverage to accelerate their modernization journeys.
Cloud migration strategies to streamline modernization
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.

Cloud migration in action
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.
Accelerate modernization for lasting business value
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.
