Challenge
Our oil and gas pipeline client faced challenges operating in remote, inaccessible terrain, requiring real-time monitoring of gas flow. Manual oversight was impractical, and the client needed a highly available, IoT-enabled solution to process large volumes of telemetry data, ensure reliability, minimize maintenance, and maintain safety and regulatory compliance.
Key goals
Real-Time Monitoring: Ensure continuous, real-time tracking of natural gas flow metrics for safety and efficiency
High Availability: Deliver a 99.9% uptime system with auto-healing and redundancy to prevent disruptions
Scalability: Handle high-density telemetry data with scalable infrastructure and long-term data retention
Low Maintenance: Provide a self-sustaining solution with automated updates for remote, inaccessible locations
