Saipem, a subsidiary of ENI, is a leading global oil and gas operator in tough and technologically challenging projects in deepwater, remote areas and “difficult” oil. From its headquarters in Milan, Saipem’s 40,000 employees operate in 70 countries. The company has two business units – engineering & construction and drilling – and has a strong local presence in oil and gas “hotspots” and emerging regions.
Operating in a variety of difficult environments worldwide, the company had acquired a mix of legacy network providers with undependable service level agreements as well as poor voice quality and reliability. In addition, managing multiple providers was time consuming and costly, and they were unable to provide detailed billing information down to site level for efficient and accurate internal cost allocation.
Saipem decided that a new approach was needed to meet its voice requirements, with a very strong focus on enhancing voice quality and service reliability while reducing international telephony costs.
