LianDi will implement its proprietary logistics optimization software to automate various parts of PetroChina’s oil production process, including production planning, logistics, demand forecasting and scheduling management.
By installing LianDi’s software across multiple parts of its operations, including oil refining and oil distribution, PetroChina will have better access to more data across several parts of its business.
The company will install the software platform across logistics dispatch command centers in six provinces, as well as provide specific programming implementation services.
The company expects to complete the current contract, totaling approximately $13m in revenues, in 12 months.
The company intends to discuss deploying software and services to additional PetroChina facilities located in other provinces once the six pilot deployments are operational.
