The challenge
Genel Energy is an independent oil and gas company with operations in Kurdistan, Iraq. The company has a workforce of over 2,000 people spread across multiple sites. In 2020, Genel Energy was looking for a solution to improve its workforce visibility and safety.
The global pandemic posed additional HSE challenges that put the sites and operations at risk. Genel needed a solution that would allow them to:
- Monitor and track the movement of their workforce across sites
- Improve worker safety
- Manage risk more effectively
The solution
Genel evaluated a number of solutions before choosing Restrata’s resilienceOS. resilienceOS is a cloud-based platform that unifies data sources and provides real-time visibility of workers, both on-site and in-transit. The platform also includes a range of features to improve worker safety, such as mustering, emergency response and travel management.
The result
“resilienceOS helped our operations a lot. Where previously we used physical paper and a T card system – this is a digital system. It’s a lot easier, a lot quicker, and a lot cleaner, I’d say. To communicate and get these things done, you’re not invading anyone’s privacy or anything. You’re just taking account of where people are. I think that’s a big plus for any company.” – Genel Energy
