The Challenge
STSI - Integrated Technical Services, located in Zagreb, Croatia, is involved with engineering, maintenance, research and production projects within the Croatian oil, gas and petroleum products industry. The company is part of the INA Group, which is a joint stock company owned by the Hungarian oil company MOL, the Republic of Croatia and private and institutional shareholders. The company decided that the datacenter in its Zagreb headquarters was becoming out-of-date and made plans for its replacement. The new datacenter was designed to include a backup power supply, air conditioning units and a soon-to-be-installed diesel generator. The company sought a SCADA system that would monitor and control crucial parameters such as power supply, temperature/humidity, AC status/mode, UPS status/mode, branch circuit current, individual circuit breaker status, raised floor conditions, technical security, and PLC status.
About The Customer
STSI - Integrated Technical Services, located in Zagreb, Croatia, is involved with engineering, maintenance, research and production projects within the Croatian oil, gas and petroleum products industry. The company is part of the INA Group (Industrija nafte d.d.), which is a joint stock company owned by the Hungarian oil company MOL (47.16%), the Republic of Croatia (44.84%) and private and institutional shareholders (8.00%). Founded in 2001, STSI - Integrated Technical Services’ goals are to develop safe, efficient and high quality property and technical/technological process maintenance systems based on market principles, improve technology and resource integration, as well as use their advantages in a competitive market approach, and develop a highly expert work force as the basic value of the company in the frame of socially acceptable criteria and principles.
The Solution
STSI - Integrated Technical Services, working with systems integrator, ECCOS inženjering, selected ICONICS’ GENESIS32™ Web-enabled, OPCintegrated HMI/SCADA Suite, as well as the WebHMI™ Web-based Real-Time Automation and AlarmWorX™32 Multimedia (MMX) Distributed Enterprise-wide Alarm Notification add-ons. ICONICS’ GENESIS32 HMI/SCADA suite now integrates with STSI - Integrated Technical Services’ Schneider Electric Premium TSX P57 PLC, which is connected to a Lampertz security room control panel and Schneider Electric/Merlin Gerin circuit breakers. GENESIS32 also interfaces with the company’s Schneider Electric EGX400 Powerlogic Ethernet Gateway, a Veris H704 Series Branch Circuit Current Monitoring System, Schneider Electric ION 7650 Power Meters and the Eaton/Powerware 9355 UPS. In unison with the company’s Matrikon OPC Server for Modbus, ICONICS’ GENESIS32 is used to collect data from all connected devices.

Case Study
Taking Oil and Gas Exploration to the Next Level
DownUnder GeoSolutions (DUG) wanted to increase computing performance by 5 to 10 times to improve seismic processing. The solution must build on current architecture software investments without sacrificing existing software and scale computing without scaling IT infrastructure costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.
Case Study
Refinery Saves Over $700,000 with Smart Wireless
One of the largest petroleum refineries in the world is equipped to refine various types of crude oil and manufacture various grades of fuel from motor gasoline to Aviation Turbine Fuel. Due to wear and tear, eight hydrogen valves in each refinery were leaking, and each cost $1800 per ton of hydrogen vented. The plant also had leakage on nearly 30 flare control hydrocarbon valves. The refinery wanted a continuous, online monitoring system that could catch leaks early, minimize hydrogen and hydrocarbon production losses, and improve safety for maintenance.
