In order to enhance technology management model and planning, Gazprom Neft PJSC formulated technological strategy. This strategy focuses our efforts in taking a step further from ‘Smart buyer’ approach to ‘Strategic goal-setter’ that significantly influences industry’s technological development through partnerships. The company focuses now on fast search, adaptation and adoption of new technologies that are of priority to the company. To gain that, it is necessary to realize our technological challenges in order to expand resource portfolio access and maximize invested assets. The efforts are based on the fundamental principles that enable upstream technological planning. Technological strategy as itself is a critical component of Technology Management System which covers the entire technological chain, from a search phase, selection, testing and up to the full scale roll out.
To achieve the target effects of the technological portfolio it is vital to develop and configure the supporting processes, which are critical when transit to the "Intelligent customer" approach.
