挑战
初创公司 Epic Piping 看到了建立价值数百万美元业务的机会。然而，挑战在于在 12 到 18 个月内建立企业规模的运营。该公司需要专注于其核心业务 - 赢得客户并建立制造资质 - 以及消除管理障碍。选择、实施和配置业务管理解决方案（例如财务和物流系统）可能会耗费宝贵的时间和精力。Epic Piping 寻找能够解决业务管理问题并允许团队专注于建设公司的业务合作伙伴。此外，Epic Piping 还希望避免在固定服务器硬件上实施 ERP 解决方案的资本支出，并避免雇用 IT 团队来管理和维护系统的持续成本。
关于客户
Epic Piping 总部位于路易斯安那州巴吞鲁日，是全球发展最快的交钥匙工业管道制造企业之一。该公司的总制造能力约为 360,000 平方英尺，到 2016 年将扩大到 500,000 平方英尺，多个工厂的产量增加到每月 12,000 个卷轴。其能力包括碳钢、铬钼、不锈钢、双相钢、镍基合金和夹套管道。Epic Piping 打算从零开始成为一家全球领先的管道制造公司，拥有超过一百万平方英尺的车间空间。Epic 旨在专注于石油和天然气、化学和电力市场来实现这一目标。要实现这一目标，需要为所有全球地点提供最先进的无缝系统来管理所有制造功能，从材料控制到定价和计费。
解决方案
Epic Piping 选择了 Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 解决方案，该解决方案完全使用 IBM Cloud Managed Services for JD Edwards 运行，从而实现了高度可扩展、完全集成的业务平台。IBM Cloud Managed Services for JD Edwards 平台提供可扩展、灵活、快速、可靠且高度安全的 Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 和 Oracle 数据库操作环境，并以 IBM 作为值得信赖的 Oracle 钻石合作伙伴的经验为后盾。这种企业级基础设施提供快速配置、克隆和系统刷新，从而提供更好的服务交付质量和操作速度。Epic Piping 已部署 Oracle JDE Cloud 应用程序，包括由 Oracle 数据库技术支持的记录到报告、订单到现金、采购到付款、物流、项目制造以及 One View 报告和移动性。

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.

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.
