Oil and gas industry

Monitor the health and performance of your machinery in the oil and gas industry

In the oil and gas industry, the extremely costly risks of production outages, the strict access restrictions related to explosive zones (ATEX) and the environmental safety requirements make the monitoring of electrical machines particularly complex, but absolutely vital.

Operational constraints

Secure and optimize your operations

The slightest unforeseen failure leads to colossal financial losses: production stops, the interruption of continuous processes, and risks of environmental incidents. Ensuring zero unplanned downtime is vital.

Continuity of production (24/7)

The refining and pipeline transport processes never stop. A sudden failure of a critical equipment directly impacts the profitability of your plant.

Constraints of ATEX zones

Your equipment operates in explosive atmospheres or on isolated platforms (offshore). Installing physical sensors is complex and expensive; intervening manually is risky.

Security

Your machines operate with flammable and pressurized fluids; anticipating deviations helps to avoid incidents that are dangerous to personnel and the environment.

Optimization of energy costs

Your compressors and cooling machines are energy-consuming equipment. Measuring and optimizing your electricity consumption is vital for maximum profitability.

RED in the oil and gas industry

Surveillance designed to meet your specific site constraints

RED deploys the measure in the electrical cabinet and monitors the entire machine from a single point, to facilitate the monitoring of scattered, exposed or heavily loaded equipment.

Severe off-field sensor

The RED is installed in the electrical cabinet, away from the production area and protected from dust, shocks, and other hazards.

Surveillance infographic 2d

Only one sensor per machine

A single measurement point to monitor the engine and the load it is carrying, minimizing instrumentation for an extended fleet.

Mechanical, electrical and energy vision

RED combines these 3 types of data to provide a more comprehensive and reliable reading of the health and performance of the equipment.

AT EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS

What equipment can you monitor with RED?

Extraction, grinding, transport, ventilation, drying or kneading: RED covers the rotating equipment essential for the continuity of your operations.

These large machines maintain the pressure of the gases for refining or their transport via gas pipelines. From the electrical cabinet and far from the ATEX zones, we detect:

Mechanical balancers

Problems with anchoring

Discharges from hydraulic loading or operation

Degradation or wear of the lobes

Wear of the couplings

Electrical defects and abnormal changes in consumption
