Case Study: Surgutneftegas prepares for SAP HANA migration with SAP Landscape Transformation software

Surgutneftegas: Preparing for the Move to SAP HANA with SAP Landscape Transformation Software

Open Joint Stock Company Surgutneftegas, a major Russian oil and gas producer, faced the challenge of modernizing its complex IT infrastructure to support future growth. The company sought to consolidate its 28 systems and prepare for a move to the SAP HANA platform, which required a major upgrade of its SAP R/3 Enterprise software to the latest SAP ERP release, including a Unicode conversion and adaptation of custom code.

To address this, SAP utilized its SAP Landscape Transformation software and expertise from its System Landscape Optimization group. The solution streamlined the upgrade process and implemented a near-zero downtime approach for data migration. This resulted in the project being completed on time in just nine months, with a dramatic reduction in planned business downtime to a single weekend. The successful implementation minimized operating costs and established a solid foundation for the company's future migration to SAP HANA.
