Maximise Your Logistics Potential with SAP Field Logistics
Offshore logistics refers to managing and coordinating various activities supporting offshore operations in industries such as oil and gas, renewable energy, and offshore construction.
It encompasses the planning, organization, and execution of logistics activities required to supply goods, and equipment to offshore facilities and projects located in remote or offshore locations, typically away from the mainland or on the open sea.
SAP’s Remote Logistics Management (RLM) which caters the Offshore Planning and Logistics, is currently running as a compatibility pack in S/4HANA with end of support by Dec 2025.
SAP introduced a new module SAP Field Logistics by mid of 2021, which serves as an upgraded replacement for the existing Remote Resource and Logistics Management module and offers enhanced features that cater to the diverse business requirements associated with offshore logistics processes.
