dc.description.abstractENGLISH SUMMARY: In recent years, there has been much discussion with regard to opportunities presented by digital transformation in upstream oil and gas. However, despite the increased attention, companies have received little to no guidance on how to implement such a transformation in upstream oil and gas. Currently, literature on digital transformation in the industry focuses on specific a aspects of the transformation; however no chronologically structured approach to implementing a holistic digital transformation encompassing all aspects is available. So how can the upstream segment implement digital transformation? This study’s aim is to develop a holistic digital transformation roadmap to assist upstream companies in digitally transforming their business. This investigation is conducted through a systematic literature review that focuses on digital transformation, upstream oil and gas and digital transformation efforts in other industries. By reviewing literature on these subjects, insights, best practices, and implementation approaches of digital transformation are identified. These a id in the development of a proposed Digital Transformation Roadmap (DTR) for a holistic transformation of the upstream oil and gas industry. The DTR is then subjected to a validation process by leading industry professionals.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAFRIKAANS OPSOMMING: In onlangse jare is daar baie gesprek gevoer oor geleenthede wat digitale transformasie in olie- en gasbedryf bied. Ondanks die groter aandag, het ondernemings egter min of geen leiding gekry oor hoe om so ’n transformasie te implementeer nie. Tans fokus literatuur oor digitale transformasie in die industrie op spesifieke a spekte v an d ie t ransformasie, m aar d aar i s g een chronologies gestruktureerde benadering tot die implementering van ’n holistiese digitale transformasie wat alle aspekte omvat tans beskikbaar nie. Dus, hoe kan die stroomop segment ’n digitale transformasie ondergaan? In hierdie verband is die doel van hierdie studie om ’n holistiese digitale transformasie raamwerk te ontwikkel om stroomop ondernemings te help met die transformasie. Hierdie ondersoek word uitgevoer deur ’n sistematiese literatuuroorsig wat fokus op digitale transformasie, stroomopwaartse olie- en gas en digitale transformasiepogings in ander bedrywe. Deur literatuur oor hierdie onderwerpe te hersien, word insigte, beste praktyke en implementeringsbenaderings van digitale transformasie geidentifiseer. Hierdie a spekte help met die ontwikkeling van ’n voorgestelde digitale transformasie raamwerk, of Digital Transformation Roadmap (DTR), vir ’n holistiese transformasie van die stroomopwaartse olieen gasbedryf. Die DTR is dan onderhewig aan ’n bekragtigingsproses deur toonaangewende professionele persone in die bedryf.en_ZA
