Data Gumbo Provides Real-Time OPEX Visibility; Supports Continuous Financial Management Across European Energy Sector
27.1.2021 09:00:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
Data Gumbo, provider of GumboNet™ — the massively interconnected industrial smart contract network secured and powered by blockchain — today announced that it enables real-time operational expenses (OPEX) visibility for energy operators and service providers across Europe. By using field operating data to digitally confirm that commercial terms of existing contracts have been satisfied, smart contracts trigger automated payments between commercial counterparties to deliver real-time visibility into contract spend.
“Energy operators and service providers are in need of information that can assist them in making difficult economic choices,” said Ove Sandve, Norway Country Manager at Data Gumbo. “GumboNet’s real-time OPEX capabilities unlock sustained digital visibility into financial health and management that can set up a company to tie field measurements to payments driving transactional certainty, improving cash flow, increasing value, and ultimately, attracting better investors.”
Managing production dynamics including labor, supervision and maintenance; chemicals and supplies; fuel, power and water; equipment rental and usage; among other services, requires considerable time and manpower. The current manual approach results in error-prone and resource-intensive paper invoices that contribute to hefty dispute and resolution processes in addition to administrative hassles.
Smart contracts provide visibility into real-time OPEX that opens the door for European energy companies to match contractual terms without human interface. Taking a typical 16+ step process down to three while ensuring transparency, accuracy and trust, GumboNet eradicates the need to rely on field estimates to book accruals and empowers operators and service providers with the financial visibility required to comprehensively digest variable production costs, as often as daily.

Visa to Bring Privacy-Preserving Payments to Canton Network25.3.2026 18:00:00 EET | Press release
Visa (NYSE:V), a global leader in digital payments, today announced it will join the Canton Network as the first major global payments company to serve as a Super Validator, to help extend privacy‑preserving blockchain infrastructure to banks and financial institutions around the world. Visa will be one of 40 Super Validators on Canton. That move goes straight to a core challenge for financial institutions: the same transparency that gives blockchains their appeal can clash with privacy expectations financial institutions operate under. Canton Network, a blockchain built for regulated finance, has privacy built in from the beginning, so organizations can use shared infrastructure without exposing sensitive information. As a Super Validator, Visa will help clients who choose to run and secure operations on the Canton Network, applying the same trusted and reliable standards it uses to operate critical payment systems today. Institutions can experiment with and scale stablecoin payments,
