Naftogaz Group has been using Microsoft technologies for many years. Over this time, the collaboration has expanded beyond corporate services to encompass data consolidation and utilisation, advanced analytics, and AI-based solutions. The memorandum signed lays the foundation for the further development of this partnership and the scaling up of technological solutions.
Artificial intelligence is increasingly important to how organisations innovate and compete, but its value depends on responsible application to real business and operational needs. We are pleased to deepen our collaboration with Naftogaz. By combining its industry expertise with Microsoft’s technology, we will focus on practical use cases that can support better-informed decisions and more efficient operations in Ukraine’s energy sector”, General Manager for Microsoft in Ukraine Eugene Kahanovskyi emphasised.
Naftogaz Digital plays a key role in the Group’s digital transformation – it is the Group’s in-house centre of technological excellence that combines industry process knowledge with data, AI, and IT expertise.
Naftogaz Group is systematically developing its IT infrastructure and advancing the digitalisation of its processes. This memorandum with Microsoft marks a new stage in our cooperation. We plan to scale up solutions that have already proven effective. One particularly promising area is the use of artificial intelligence and data analytics to forecast demand for energy resources,” commented Naftogaz Acting CEO Sergii Fedorenko.
The Group’s scale, the diversity of its business processes and its in-house technological expertise create the conditions for piloting and subsequently scaling up solutions for the oil and gas industry. Potential areas of cooperation include: cloud and hybrid infrastructure development, scaling of AI-based solutions, business process optimisation, centralisation of technological solutions, strengthening of cybersecurity, and development of AI education programmes.
