Case Study: a privately-owned oil and gas service company achieves real-time visibility into mobile chemical trailer operations with FieldEquip

Real-Time Connectivity to Mobile Assets in Field Using Internet Of Things

The customer, a privately-owned oil and gas service company, faced the challenge of providing its operator clients with real-time visibility into their remote mobile chemical trailer operations. These trailers operated in areas with limited bandwidth, making it difficult to transmit crucial operational data. They partnered with vendor FieldEquip to implement a digital transformation using IoT connectivity to overcome these obstacles.

FieldEquip's solution deployed a data gateway appliance to connect to the trailer's PLC equipment, streaming data to their EquipConnect IoT cloud platform. This provided real-time data access via web and mobile apps. The results were significant: FieldEquip enabled connectivity to over 750 mobile units, created a mission-critical 99.9% available solution on AWS, and facilitated the generation of over 16,000 field reports annually.
