Case Study: Al Jomaih and Shell Lubricating Oil Company saves $1 million and reduces costs with Microsoft Azure

Shell and Al Jomaih create reliable, available infrastructure with SAP on Azure

Al Jomaih and Shell Lubricating Oil Company (JOSLOC) needed a more reliable IT environment after experiencing downtime at its on-site datacenter, while also supporting 24/7 production and sales operations. The company chose Microsoft Azure to move its SAP ECC6 workloads to the cloud and avoid major hardware and staffing investments.

Microsoft Azure completed the transfer in just 72 hours, helping JOSLOC run ERP, finance, plant maintenance, and sales functions on cloud infrastructure. The move saved $1 million in hardware investment, cut SAP administration and maintenance time by 70%, and reduced operational and maintenance costs by 18%, while improving flexibility, reliability, and decision-making support.
