Robotic process automation (HyperAutomation) is a technology solution that has gained popularity for its ease of implementation, rapid deployment, and ability to deliver immediate, measurable results. HyperAutomation in the oil & gas industry uses computer software or “robots” to perform repetitive, rules-based tasks to boost capabilities and save time. HyperAutomation is similar to an Excel macro—without being limited to use with Excel files. Examples of HyperAutomation include opening an email, downloading a spreadsheet attachment, and copying the data from the spreadsheet into an ERP system.
OIL & GAS COMPANIES THAT AUTOMATE THE CLOSE PROCESS EXPEDITE CLOSE TIME, IMPROVE TRANSPARENCY, AND REDUCE RISK
Oil & gas companies that use HyperAutomation to automate the close process and implement automated checks and alerts can expedite close time by 30-50 percent, improve accuracy and auditability, and reduce the risk of human error. In particular, automating checks and alerts processes allows functional leaders to manage the close process by exception, while reducing manual processes overall frees up company analysts to focus on generating data-driven insights.
