Sopra Steria, a recognised European leader in consultancy, digital services and software development, has partnered with Enagás to redefine its SPLIT system – a new web system designed to plan daily regasification at each facility based on expected ship arrivals. This innovative system factors in important elements such as physical restrictions at each facility and levels of gas stocks. Sopra Steria has also facilitated Enagás’ transition to cloud and defined the new development architecture.
With input from Sopra Steria, Enagás has developed an algorithm that collects all the information it needs from different data sources to draw up a future estimate on how, given the global stocks of gas available, it’s distributed among the different plants. All this information feeds into a web-based tool controlled by Enagás workers.
In addition, SPLIT has been the catalyst of Enagás journey to the cloud. This exciting journey began with the migration of applications from its own on-premises servers to the cloud. Sopra Steria has supported Enagás throughout the design of robust cloud infrastructures, coupled with expert advice on their implementation.
Teams from Sopra Steria's Utilities Sector, Design Consultancy, Digital Platform Services Division and the Digital Services Center have all contributed to this project, mobilising the knowledge and capabilities of various departments throughout the company.
"We are very proud that Enagás is sharing its challenges with us, such as the development of this platform from scratch, the implementation of Agile methodologies and the definition of such an ambitious new development architecture," said Antonio Peñalver, CEO of Sopra Steria Spain. "In addition, this project is of special value to us, as it has involved areas from all over the company, demonstrating our comprehensive capabilities to accompany our customers throughout the entire life cycle of the digital business," he added.
The main benefit derived from SPLIT is the change of working model when shifting applications to the cloud. It increases productivity and efficiency. In addition, it streamlines processes by moving to a fully automated and computerised system.
