Petroleum Enterprise "Twelve-Five" development focus on Internet and cloud computing

China Petrochemical Industry "Twelve-Five" development draft key words are "high-end product development, large-scale intensive industry development, key domestic technology research and development, energy saving and environmental protection." This is a good news for the domestic large-scale state-owned oil enterprise's technical renovation and it construction. Oil companies will pay more attention to the new technology, product development and other inputs, it will also drive the IT products, solutions in its core business development of the universal application. IDC report "China Petroleum Industry IT Solution market 2011-2015 Forecast and Analysis" shows, 2010 China oil industry total IT investment scale reaches 9.96 billion yuan. IDC predicts that it will reach 9.96 billion yuan in the oil industry by 2015 and a composite growth rate of 14.1% in 2010-2015.

In a 2010 CIO survey of 68 cities, IDC found that the three major IT application challenges facing oil companies include "maximizing operational efficiency, stability of core application systems, applicability and application, and system integration". 童华, research manager of China Industry Research and Consulting service of IDC, said: "With the increasing difficulty of oil exploration, the profit pressure of oil enterprises is increasing, so it is the biggest challenge for oil enterprises to use IT system to reduce cost and improve operation efficiency." In addition, due to the complex business of petroleum enterprises and the variety of professional application software, the stability and adaptability of the core application software are very important. Finally, because of the large number of application systems used by petroleum enterprises, how to integrate these systems is also a challenge for users. ”

In order to meet the above challenges, PetroChina "Twelve-Five" it planning mentioned in the construction focus includes three-tier data center construction, cloud computing, things networking and other new technology applications, ERP deepening application and Xinjiang oilfield as a pilot intelligent oilfield construction. Sinopec "Twelve-Five" It planning for the operation and management, production operations, infrastructure and operation of the three major platform for the construction of the deepening of the application, as well as the use of 3G/4G communications technology and cloud computing technology and other new technologies to support mobile office, optimize logistics, high-performance computing.

PetroChina and Sinopec's two major oil companies "Twelve-Five" It planning focus on "cloud computing" and "Internet of things." In fact, the focus of the oil industry on cloud computing and the Internet of things has already started as soon as these technologies have been introduced, and research has begun. "Twelve-Five" period will be PetroChina, Sinopec to transform the research results into practical application of the important period. The IDC forecast IoT will take the lead in the oil exploration and transportation industry, in order to improve the production efficiency and reduce the production cost. And cloud computing will be the first private cloud deployment, to achieve internal office, ERP applications. Currently, oil companies are studying which applications are suitable for use in private clouds, and I am sure there will be results in the near future.
