ORLEN Group in collaboration with Microsoft is undertaking the largest AI deployment in central and eastern Europe.
The solutions being implemented will enhance not only its energy operations, but also cybersecurity, production processes, data analysis and overall workforce efficiency across the Group.
“The energy transition is a challenge for the entire economy – one that requires decisive action here and now. ORLEN’s strategy through 2035 represents the largest investment programme in the history of Poland’s energy sector.
“Today, the sector has become one vast construction site. We intend to move even faster, which is why we are leveraging the most advanced tools available on the market to support our daily work.
“The ORLEN Group comprises over 200 companies, operating across more than a dozen countries. Efficient management of this corporate structure requires seamless information flow and the constant introduction of innovative solutions to help us stay competitive and better deliver on our business objectives. Deploying AI across the organisation of more than 60,000 people will boost operational efficiency, reducing the burden of repetitive tasks and unlocking the full potential of our employees’ unique skills. These skills are our most valuable asset,” said Ireneusz Fąfara, CEO and president of the management board of ORLEN.
Digital transformation is a central pillar of the ORLEN Group’s 2035 strategy, The Energy of Tomorrow Starts Today.
The strategic roadmap published in January emphasises the use of digital tools and effective Group-wide data management as key enablers of a successful energy transition.
The agreement signed with Microsoft is a step toward delivering this strategic goal. It covers the standardisation and consolidation of software licences across the Group, the development of secure cloud technologies, and the rollout of intelligent assistants capable of relieving employees from routine tasks and offering data-driven recommendations.
