INTRODUCTION:
The upstream sector of the oil and gas business, which includes exploration and production, is crucial to the performance of the entire supply chain. Throughout the many tasks of this sector, these processes include considerable coordination and affiliation with numerous vendors and joint-venture partners. Contracts and vast volumes of analytical data are frequently needed in this supply chain segment. The initial phase in this industry is exploration, which entails finding potential locations for well drilling in order to collect crude oil, which is subsequently treated and processed to make various products of crude oil.
