In 2019, a major North American pipeline operator faced a challenge familiar to many industrial companies: how do you scale operations dramatically while keeping land, stakeholders, and compliance under control?
The company launched a project to expand its existing pipeline network — a project set to nearly triple its overall capacity. The pipeline crossed rugged terrain and environmentally sensitive areas and required compliance with 156 regulatory conditions. On top of all this, the company faced a massive workflow it risked being unable to manage: land records, stakeholder communications, environmental commitments, and regulatory documentation were scattered across legacy systems, spreadsheets, and paper files, split between departments working in silos. As the project scaled, this fragmented approach simply couldn’t keep up: teams needed a way to quickly identify affected landowners, engage them efficiently, track every commitment made, and produce audit-ready compliance reports — all from a single reliable source of truth.
Borealis stakeholder and land management software was built exactly for challenges like this — to bring land, stakeholder, and communication data together in one place, no matter the scale or complexity of the project.
When the company adopted the platform, it proved to be the right fit: by centralizing data and integrating it with GIS mapping, task management, and reporting tools, Borealis allowed teams across departments to work from the same data, coordinate outreach efficiently, and demonstrate compliance without duplicating effort.
The results were substantial:
Beyond the efficiency gains, the platform helped maintain trust with Indigenous communities and other stakeholders — ensuring commitments were tracked and honored throughout a multi-year, high-stakes project.
Land access, community relations, and regulatory compliance are exactly the areas where Ukrainian companies in energy, oil & gas, and infrastructure face growing complexity — especially as reconstruction and new project development accelerate. Purpose-built tools like Borealis can make a real difference here.
We are proud to help introduce solutions like Borealis to the Ukrainian market and support their implementation in collaboration with Borealis.
