Oil & Gas

Despite having many of the technologies enabled by advanced connectivity already at its disposal, the oil and gas sector has yet to realize much of connectivity’s potential—and the potential is significant.

The oil and gas industry can be a liability for the environment and a safety hazard to the public. Leaks and spills are expensive and damage the ecosystems drastically. Environmental standards are critical for both distribution and production. A SCADA monitoring system offers alarm notifications, speed and sophistication.

RTUs are effective for monitoring downstream conditions at a refinery. This encompasses a significant footprint. Time is required due to the complex nature and size of the sites. Catastrophes can be prevented when workers at the remote corners of the site receive an early warning regarding the issue.
