  • Multiple Group gathering station and central tank  farm needs to be mapped in single delivery network. Entire reporting pertinent to Daily well downtime , Loss reporting etc., was manual and involved huge effort
  • Royalty calculation on oil & gas product is different for each of the states. Royalty calculation required for tight integration of production accounting and sales function to calculate complex routines in order to derive the royalty payment figures and form printing requirement.
