Oil and gas services: Reducing equipment malfunction costs with powerful BI solutions

Our client—a leading provider of drilling rigs, well service rigs, camps, rental equipment, and directional drilling services for Canada’s oil and gas industry—needed a solution to help reduce the frequency of unplanned emergency and high priority equipment malfunctions, strengthen operating margins, and reduce overall risk to the business.

To help our client achieve these outcomes, we designed a custom BI solution that analyzes planned and unplanned maintenance incidents for work sites across two countries and presents key metrics for teams at the management and operational levels. This involved spearheading project management, change management, data cleanup, and migration from a legacy data management platform to a new platform that makes data revision easier, less time consuming, and less prone to errors. Now, our client can quickly identify areas of concern, take corrective action when needed, and make more informed decisions regarding their maintenance planning efforts and initiatives.
