Houston based oil and production software platform Datagration has joined Microsoft’s One Commercial Partner programme, a move aimed at boosting the scope of the company’s cloud offering to its industrial customers in the oil and gas industry.

As a Microsoft OCP Partner, Datagration now has access to Microsoft’s collaborations that it says will translate to a higher level of customer services via simplified analytics and integrated data of their operations. The company says its clients’ ability to model, map and customise data will be improved, providing a more comprehensive overview of their operations.

Datagration has developed a suite of workflow automation solutions addressing portfolio management, asset development and well productivity enhancement that have been used by super-majors, national oil companies and independents worldwide. Its PetroVisor platform captures data from clients’ different legacy systems to automate workflows and deliver actionable insights for better and quicker decision-making and reduced operational costs for the oil and gas sector.

The OCP Partner designation is a step above Microsoft’s general Partner programme status and is reserved for a small group of organisations. Microsoft invests in the success of participating businesses like Datagration, and offers access to training, a referral programme, third party solutions and go-to-market services, all geared to accelerating growth for partners and end users.

“We are helping our customers transform their operations to be more intelligent, integrated and collaborative by utilising platforms like Microsoft Teams, Power Platform, Power Apps and Azure. Our partnership with Microsoft will go a long way in supporting delivery of an improved customer experience and help our customers operate more efficiently,” said, Kenton Gray, CTO, Datagration.

Gray says the company is continually expanding its platform and workflow solutions to support its clients who operate in a competitive industry subject to intense market fluctuations requiring agile and informed decision-making.  

“Datagration is excited to partner with Microsoft and is currently engaged in many sales opportunities around the world to provide a way to pull disparate data in an open agnostic and elegant way with workflow and knowledge automation,” said Tom Jordan, VP of Corporate Development, Datagration.
