Oil & gas refineries are high-stakes operations. They power economies, supply industries, and meet the world’s energy needs. Yet, they face tremendous challenges:
- Downtime costs can reach millions of dollars per day.
- Compliance and safety regulations are non-negotiable.
- Field service must be precise and efficient in hazardous environments.
- Workforce management spans thousands of employees and contractors.
Traditional CRMs cannot keep up with the scale, risk, and compliance refiners deal with. That’s why Salesforce Service Cloud + Field Service Lightning (FSL) have become essential for refinery operations.
At Perigeon, we’ve helped energy-sector leaders digitize operations and implement predictive, compliant service ecosystems.

How Salesforce Service Cloud Helps
- Case Management → Track incidents, safety reports, and service requests.
- Entitlement & SLA Tracking → Monitor compliance for service contracts.
- Omni-Channel Support → Multi-channel incident logging.
- Knowledge Base → Safety manuals, SOPs, compliance guides.
- Analytics Dashboards → SLA and compliance visibility for leadership.
How Salesforce FSL Helps
- Skills-Based Scheduling → Dispatch certified technicians only.
- Mobile App (Offline Mode) → Crucial for remote refinery sites.
- IoT Integration → Connected assets trigger preventive maintenance.
- Asset Tracking → Service history for every pump, turbine, and valve.
Example
A refinery operator integrated IoT with Salesforce. When vibration exceeded thresholds in a gas compressor, Service Cloud created a case and FSL dispatched a certified technician. Result: incident prevented, SLA maintained, compliance record updated.
