PetroRio Case: Registration Center with Standardized Database Increases Efficiency in Purchasing and Logistics

Headquartered in Rio de Janeiro, PetroRio is a publicly traded Brazilian company focused on the production, exploration, refining, marketing, and transportation of oil, natural gas, and their derivatives. Its growth strategy is clear: increase production through the acquisition of assets already in operation, strengthen reservoir management efficiency, boost operational performance, and reduce costs—both production and administrative.

The beginning of the project

In January 2018, PetroRio identified a challenge that directly impacted its purchasing, logistics, and tax departments: the low quality of material descriptions in records, which were generic and not very functional.

Seeking a robust and reliable solution, the company chose CH Master Data | Astrein to lead a project that involved the acquisition of a database with 6,000 items from the company's standardized catalog, in addition to the implementation of a Registration Center with outsourced service.

These items had standardized short and long descriptions (in Portuguese and English), two-tier family categorization, and NCM tax classification. The plan was to create a solid initial foundation and, from there, supplement it with new items as daily demand arose.

Continuous expansion with automated integration

Since then, PetroRio has been adding 300 to 800 new standardized items per month. These records are automatically integrated into the company's ERP (TOTVS) through a direct connection to CH Master Data | Astrein's SSA-CAD system.

Results achieved

With the new Registration Center in operation, the gains were evident:

  • Easy item consultation through the SSA-CAD system;

  • Improved quality of information, which directly contributes to more advantageous purchase negotiations;

  • Increased visibility for transaction comparison and contract management;

  • Unified database, with assertive tax classification (NCM), reducing errors and rework in several areas.
