Oil & Gas Logistics
Intense competition and fluctuations in commodity prices are compelling mining firms to slash production costs, curtail capital expenditures, and often extend asset maintenance intervals to ramp up production levels. Additionally, companies are venturing into remote locations with abundant natural resources and low labor costs. This strategic shift necessitates a thorough evaluation of the overall landed cost of production assets and supply materials. Supply chains are now under pressure to optimize material availability considering supplier locations and longer lead times. The performance of production and operational efficiency is now intricately linked to how well the supply chain is integrated into the overarching strategy.
Divinity’s established proficiency in supporting operations in remote areas allows mining companies to leverage cost advantages in these regions while meeting production targets.
