This company is a leading provider of oil field equipment, systems, and services used in the drilling and production of oil and gas. It also manufactures turnkey solutions for the global production and distribution of crude oil, natural gas, and other petroleum products.

With manufacturing facilities in both Houston and India, the company designs and produces a wide range of products for the upstream and midstream sectors, while also offering customized engineering solutions.

Business Niche

This client company is a prominent name in the production of oilfield equipment, with operations spanning across five continents. The company manufactures a comprehensive range of products, including valves, flow heads, choke and kill manifolds, standpipe manifolds, chokes, cross-over connectors, top connectors, tees and crosses, adapter spools, spacer spools, flanged connectors, and threaded connectors.

Business Challenge

  • The company uses AWS S3 for file storage, managing a vast amount of data. They have a constant need to securely share test reports with over 100 customers located around the world.
  • However, sharing these test reports securely proved challenging due to the limitations of AWS S3’s file-sharing capabilities. To address this, they developed an in-house solution, but it failed to meet their security requirements, rendering it inadequate for secure file sharing.
  • The company was also seeking a software solution that would allow them to easily and quickly search for specific files or folders within their large database.

Solution

  • They discovered NirvaShare and signed a deal with us, after which there was no looking back. NirvaShare replaced their in-house software and streamlined the file-sharing process, enabling them to securely share test reports with external users without the concern of data breaches.
  • Internal staff, who were using the IAM Identity Center as their identity provider for SSO and MFA, also benefited from NirvaShare’s multiple authentication methods, such as simple form-based authentication and SSO.
  • Another advantage of using NirvaShare was the ability to assign specialized access permissions, such as read-only access, viewing access, and download access, to clients.

Moreover, the indexing feature of NirvaShare resolved their challenge of quickly and effortlessly searching for files or folders within the vast pool of data stored in Amazon S3.
