Brazilian natural gas operator Eneva working with Accenture on cloud transformation
Brazilian natural gas operator Eneva is working with Accenture and Google Cloud on a major cloud-driven digital transformation program aimed at optimizing operations, better serving customers, and driving growth.
Eneva is Brazil’s largest private natural gas operator, engaged in exploration, production, and power generation. The company operates 15 natural gas fields in the Parnaíba and Amazonas basins, holding the country’s largest concession area (over 63,000 km2). Its generation portfolio includes 6.8 GW of contracted capacity, with thermal power plants across multiple states and the Futura Solar Complex located in Bahia.
As part of its strategy, Eneva is working on a transformation program will modernize its technology backbone and make its operations more efficient and flexible.
A key part of this transformation is the adoption of Google Cloud, which at the same time is driving the shift to a data-driven enterprise. This project is supported by consultants from Accenture.
The first results of this multi-year program are already being reaped. With enhanced data insights from exploration and production, Eneva is optimizing its asset management maintenance and scheduling, resulting in more reliable and better-performing equipment. This boosts employee productivity by enabling maintenance operators to complete tasks in half the time currently required, freeing them up to focus on higher-value work.
Eneva is also leveraging Google Cloud’s optimization tools alongside Accenture’s industry knowledge to save staff time and resources through the integration of data from various corporate and operational systems.
“We’re not only seeing potential in the combination of cloud, data and AI – we’re already experiencing its transformative power across our business,” said Alexandre Ferreira, Chief Information Officer at Eneva. “With Accenture’s deep industry expertise and the advanced capabilities of Google Cloud, we’ve formed the ideal collaboration to drive transformation across our business for years to come.”
“This program will enable us to serve our energy customers in Brazil with greater precision, agility, and innovation.”
Commenting on the project, Scott Alfieri, Google Business Group lead at Accenture, said: “By combining Accenture’s experience in cloud technology and energy transformation with the advanced data and AI capabilities of Google Cloud, we’re helping one of the largest energy companies in Brazil unlock new levels of operational efficiency and customer impact. Together, we’re not just imagining change – we’re delivering it.”
