挑战
Unique Manufacturing faced the challenge of producing mission-critical parts for deep-sea oil production that had to be absolutely perfect and delivered on time. The parts they produce are essential for large drilling and pipeline operations, and any delay in delivery could result in significant financial losses. The company needed a way to manage scheduling and their production process to meet these critical deadlines and ensure flawless quality control.
关于客户
Unique Manufacturing is a company based in New Iberia, Louisiana, specializing in producing parts for the oil industry that are considered impossible to make by others. Founded eight years ago by four industry veterans with no initial capital, the company has grown to produce one-of-a-kind parts for deep-sea oil production, some costing over a million dollars. The parts they manufacture are mission-critical elements for large drilling and pipeline operations, requiring absolute precision and timely delivery. Unique Manufacturing prides itself on its ability to deliver perfect parts on time, every time, making them a trusted partner in the oil industry.
解决方案
To address their quality and delivery demands, Unique Manufacturing implemented REALTRAC Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software. This software helps them manage every detail of their operations, from job scheduling to tracking projects from raw materials to finished parts. The ERP system provides complete visibility on projects, allowing the management team to access all necessary information at any time. This has enabled Unique Manufacturing to pass quality audits like API Q1, ISO9001, and IS0/TS 29001 on their first attempt, thanks to the comprehensive documentation available in the ERP software. The software also helped solve productivity issues by eliminating time clocks and relying on employee log-in features to track time, thereby reducing unproductive hours.

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.
