Partnering With PDS

Partnering with PDS Group can bring innovative technology to the Oil and Gas marketplace faster.

The impact of the Oil Industry downturn on new technology acquisition threatens the entire supply chain; operators, service companies and the R&D ecosystem upon which they depend. In a market blighted by stalled R&D programmes and broken strategic relationships, by the flight of top talent and by the write-off of billions of dollars of intellectual capital, it is exceptionally difficult to generate the green shoots of a technology-led recovery that so many believe is vital for our future. We all need to learn to work smarter and more efficiently - and for new technologies this means an opportunity for new business models to emerge.

Marketing
Many academic and research partners need a delivery mechanism to get their technology into the market. Sometimes it's as simple as providing the appropriate brand awareness, demand generation, or content strategy for them to gain widespread adoption. If this describes your organisation, we can help by building an appropriate frontend marketing effort to effectively reach your target audience.

Sales & Channel Strategy
When you have great technology, but need boots on the ground to manage customer relationships, penetrate new markets and increase sales volumes, we can determine an appropriate go-to-market strategy with you. It might include pipeline growth and management, or it could be more useful to set up a value-added resale or OEM distributorship. Regardless, we can find a way to ensure your technology reaches the right customers.

Research & Development
Sometimes research tools have reached their maturity and are ready to be deployed to the masses, but they require additional development to make them market-ready. We have experience creating partnerships that support collaborative R&D and technology commercialisation helping organisations reconfigure their technology for mass distribution.

Bespoke Software Development
Is your backlog growing faster than you can develop or are you missing critical oil and gas expertise to transform the requirements into viable feature sets? We can partner with you to deliver software components, and/or insert critical talent where you need it - interfacing between research, product and DevOps teams to break down the barriers and deliver product enhancements to the market faster.

Service Contract Management
There is a critical shortage of talent that understands the E&P workflow and can develop meaningful software for end-users. Faced with customisation and challenging systems integration work to get your technology working within your client's organisation, you might require some help fulfilling service contract obligations. We would be happy to investigate opportunities to work together.

Cloud-hosting & Cloud-computing
Working together with Schlumberger, we are helping businesses large and small transform their desktop applications into cloud solutions. The newest 17.2 version of Petrel* E&P software platform will support both desktop and cloud technology. We can help your organisation with the transition to cloud-computing so you can fully integrate with the new operating environment.

Value-added Resales (VAR)
Sometimes two companies have independent products, services or IP that can complement each other and expand their served available market opportunities. In these cases, we can create a technology cross-licensing partnership with an appropriate royalty or revenue sharing model.
