The State of the Oil and Gas Industry in 2020: A Research Recap

For the past few years, we’ve seen SAP customers in the oil and gas industry work to standardize their ERP systems in their efforts to simplify, focus on business differentiators, and eventually move to the cloud. Though they’ve been making ground with these changes, now the world has turned upside down because of COVID-19.

During this live webcast and Q&A, Ann Marie Gray, VP of content strategy and research at ASUG will share the research that came from our conversations with SAP customers across the oil and gas industry, pre-COVID-19. We’ll explain where these customers need the most technology support, what products they’ve invested in already, and what drives their satisfaction.

Joining us will be Jennifer W. Stevens, information technology program manager at Marathon Oil Corporation. We’ll hear from her about how her team is using technology to manage through the history-breaking events that the oil and gas industry is experiencing. We’ll talk about how what she’s seeing compares with the data we’ve been gathering in our weekly ASUG Pulse Study. Bring your questions and insights about what’s going on for this group of SAP customers.
