The problems of global economic growth are largely due to factors in the dynamics of the oil and gas sector. New requirements for the quality, quantity and timing of the supply of hydrocarbons create opportunities for the development and increase of the efficiency of the oil and gas business, including the growth of its capitalization. For the oil and gas industry, the digital transformation goes beyond the tactical use of technology, the business model is being transformed by accelerating the spread of innovation and the constant growth of practical efficiency, which significantly changes strategic guidelines. The article presents an analysis of the impact of digital technology on the financial aspects of the oil and gas business. The objective obstacles to its digitalization are described, which can form the basis for developing recommendations for promoting digital technologies in this segment of the economy. The advancement of scientific and technological progress and the automation of many stages of production processes are factors in the possible growth in the capitalization of the oil and gas business. Studies have shown that existing technologies are not always able to facilitate this process. Underfunding of the information and computing infrastructure of companies can become a serious problem on the way to strengthening the financial component of the oil and gas business. In the Russian oil and gas industry, the use of additional digital platforms and innovations is an additional advantage for increasing operating profit. The article discusses the cybersecurity of the oil and gas business based on an integrated approach and the implementation of all aspects of the oil and gas company: information, organizational and technological. A group of cyber defense tools is proposed. A new model of the digital transformation of oil and gas companies is proposed to formulate an action plan for the use of digital technologies, to solve tactical problems and strategic goals of the oil and gas business, to ensure its capitalization growth. It is shown that business capitalization under the influence of digital technologies allows the oil and gas industry to implement the latest achievements in the field of cloud computing, digitalization of oil fields, service-oriented architectures and industrialization, significantly expanding the possibilities of corporate financial management.

Abstract The digital transformation is key for every oil and gas organization to implement its fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0). Digital transformation in procurement uses artificial intelligence, big data, market intelligence, etc. to create self-learning systems; for the procurement of goods and services. This is also known as cognitive procurement or procurement 4.0. The objective of this paper is to examine the methods of implementing cognitive procurement, the impact it creates in the procurement life cycle, and in the supply chain. The paper also provides insight into three governance models of human-machine interaction that is implemented in stages based on procurement requirement and technology adoption maturity of the organization.Human-in-the-loop modelHuman on-the-loop modelHuman out-of-loop model The data for this study is obtained by preparing a list of relevant questions from multiple sources. An online survey questionnaire is sent to the procurement professionals in different organizations in the oil and gas industry. The questions reveal procurement expert's responses for:Potential challenges for the digital transformation in procurement and supply chain.Methods of enabling technologies to leverage procurement procedures and processes. The results and the observations of the study are used to measure the benefits of implementing cognitive procurement in the oil and gas industry 4.0. The new transformed roles of procurement for industry 4.0 are also discussed in the conclusion, which includes:Daily activitiesProcurement decision-making activitiesStrategic SourcingProcurement to drive organizational profitability, effectiveness and efficiency The paper will benefit oil and gas organizations that are planning to implement cognitive procurement as part of the digital transformation. The paper will also benefit any parties interested in understanding more about cognitive procurement.

Digital transformation in the field of oil and Gas industry is already a significant impact creator. It is actually act like catalyst through which the overall functionality of the oil and gas industry get enhanced and the overall output with the help of technologically-advanced mechanism, increased up to manifold. In the present scenario, the over-all quest is not just about the volume of the oil and petroleum, but it is also regarding the overall value generated throughout the process. And such enhanced level of value generation is taking place with great pace with the help of enhanced level of implementations of different types of technologies in different type of activities related to the oil and gas industry. In the present scenario, oil and gas industry’s business model is no longer depending upon just the inflated and narrow based value-chain mechanism. It is actually depending upon the almost all modernized and futuristic technologies. The modern technologies include big data analytics, 3D printing technology, cyber security, digital marketing, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, drone technologies, database management system, etc. all these technologies are not only supports in handling the overall business capability of the oil and Gas Industries, but also eliminate the overall negative impact generating elements. With the help of technologies and digital transformation, the overall profitability of the oil and gas industry enhanced. Digital transformation is a prominent and significant impact creator which is not limited to the oil and gas industry, but also reaching up to the all-global level Businesses. It is transforming the overall business operations by enhancing the speed of innovation and making the use of practical knowledge base which ultimately enhance the overall power of operations and increase efficiencies. With the emergence of digital transformation technologies especially with the emergence of big data analytics, the Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence have supports several types of innovative and new ways of developing and transforming the overall market as well as the customer satisfaction in significant manner. All such innovative technologies and digital transformations are contributing significantly in shaping the future of oil and gas industry

Abstract As a resourced based economy, Malaysia relies heavily on the energy oil, and gas industry - a critical sector contributing to the economic growth of the Malaysian economy; which makes up in the range of 20% - 25% of the total gross domestic product (GDP) of Malaysia as of 2017. No analysts can properly predict prices of the future, with the highs and lows of crude and natural gas and renewables as the fuel of the future and are perhaps new way of things. This "new normal" in which countries, including Malaysia, must learn to adapt in a more agile manner to the "new way of work" of increased productivity and efficiency (de Graauw, McCreery, & Murphy, 2015). In adapting to the new normal, measures of increased productivity must continue to be pushed forward and implemented. Energy companies and services provider still need to continue with exploration and development (E&P) operations and activities to meet long term strategic objectives and demands of the nation, in line with the aspirations of the national oil company, however, it needs to add more value to every dollar spent as margins have continued to shrink and reduce profit margins of energy producers. This is where Digital Transformation comes into play and the urgency for implementation has gone from novelty solutions to critical business survival. Changing industry trends such as Industrial Revolution 4.0 have made it more prevalent than ever to make better use of capital at a time when productivity is essential. At the same time, the industry needs to continue to explore and develop to meet long-term demands, which continues to grow albeit slower than before.
