Swire Energy Services

Digital transformation is an ongoing effort within Swire Energy Services to rewire all operations for the ever-evolving digital world. This is done by adopting the correct technologies and collaboration with customers and suppliers in order to improve processes, strategies, reduce Co2 emissions and digitalise the customer experience.

Swire Energy Services have recently implemented a new ERP system that integrates core business functions throughout our North Sea companies. This allows employees, customers, and vendors the targeted, real-time data access that they need to simplify and streamline the day to day operations.
