Evolution of upstream oil and gas land management

There are five stages of software evolution within land management:

1. Initial 
2. Manual 
3. Reactive 
4. Managed
5. Optimized

Transcending stages – the act of evolving your land department and its technological competence – is critical to the overall health of your oil and gas organization.

In this guide, discover the characteristics and challenges of each stage, plus what it takes to move from the initial stage – where there is minimal production of oil and/or natural gas, a company is just getting its bearings in the business, and land systems are not being used – to the optimized stage where an entire organization is aligned and integrated across business processes, people management, and software usage.
