Overview

Gulf Energy Information, a leading provider of media, marketing, and market intelligence services to the international energy industry, offers in-depth insights and strategic content through its well-known brands, including Petroleum Economist, World Oil, Pipeline & Gas Journal, and others. 

The Challenge:

ContentActive provided the following services for the H2Tech website development:

  1. Website Design & Development: Created a user-friendly, engaging website using Umbraco CMS 8.17+ and the USkinned template as a foundation.
  2. CMS Integration: Implemented Umbraco to ensure flexible, scalable content management for easy updates.
  3. Custom Features & Functionality: Developed tailored features to meet the specific needs of the H2Tech platform.
  4. Responsive Design: Ensured the website was mobile-friendly and accessible across all devices.
  5. Content Migration: Seamlessly migrated existing content to the new platform without data loss.

The Strategy:

ContentActive faced several challenges while developing the H2Tech website for Gulf Energy Information:

  1. Integration with Existing Infrastructure: Integrating the H2Tech site into the new Umbraco CMS with minimal disruption to the existing Gulf Energy Info site proved challenging.

  2. Customization of USkinned Template: Customizing the USkinned template to meet Gulf Energy’s specific needs required significant development, particularly for the technical content and strategic direction.

  3. Responsive Design Across Platforms: Ensuring the site was fully functional and aesthetically consistent across all devices, especially mobile, was a complex task given the diverse media formats.

  4. Content Migration: Migrating content from the old site without data loss and ensuring the accurate preservation of technical insights and historical data was a detailed process.

Custom Features & Functionality: Incorporating interactive features like data presentations and market intelligence tools to serve Gulf Energy’s large audience presented both technical and design challenges.
