挑战
WellAware 正在探索市场,寻找一种可靠的解决方案,用于从客户的远程井位收集数据。据 WellAware 首席执行官马特哈里森 (Matt Harrison) 称,该公司的客户非常需要利用数字油田提供的智能。在为其网络选择供应商时,WellAware 比较了一系列通信技术的特性。蜂窝提供了足够的覆盖范围,但以每台设备每月 25 至 50 美元的价格计算,成本非常高。卫星甚至更贵,每台设备每月超过 100 美元。由于一个典型的油田由 1,000 多口井组成,因此实施这些技术将很快变得成本高昂。此外,蜂窝和卫星技术只能提供 85-95% 的数据可用性,并且无法以亚分钟频率传输数据。这不足以满足 WellAware 客户对可靠性的期望。

解决方案
最终,WellAware 希望 Ingenu 提供一种网络解决方案,该解决方案能够以用户可以承受的价格提供广泛而深入的覆盖范围以及卓越的可靠性和安全性。在评估 Ingenu 的 RPMA(随机相位多路访问)技术时,WellAware 确定 Ingenu 的创新网络非常适合其数字油田需求。 RPMA 从头开始构建,提供最佳覆盖范围,提供超过 99.9% 的数据可用性并支持每个接入点数以万计的设备。此外,即使在信号强度较低的情况下,该网络也能够在其他网络出现故障的情况下可靠、准确地提供油田数据。所有这些都转化为每个接入点的极广覆盖区域。而且,由于网络能够连接更少的基础设施,因此资本和运营成本显着降低。

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.
