Case Study: WaterBridge achieves complete operational visibility with Cirrus Link MQTT and Ignition

WaterBridge Resources Leverages MQTT for Complete Visibility into Operations

WaterBridge Resources, a midstream water management company, faced reliability issues and escalating costs with its legacy control systems, which hampered operational visibility during a period of rapid growth. The customer needed a modern, scalable IIoT platform to securely unify machine and manual field data for better decision-making. They partnered with Cirrus Link to implement a solution based on the Ignition SCADA platform and MQTT technology.

Cirrus Link implemented a system using Ignition with MQTT and Sparkplug B for efficient data transmission, along with its proprietary MQTT Recorder module to capture manual HMI entries. This solution provided WaterBridge with high-resolution data collection, substantial improvements in data quality, and centralized access to operational information. The results included more efficient operations, informed decision-making for stakeholders, and an estimated avoidance of millions in losses due to equipment failure.
