WHAT: THE EVOLUTION OF DATA COLLECTION FOR GAS MEASUREMENT

Evolving communication technologies are revolutionizing SCADA systems just as new technology in drilling and production are revolutionizing the way oil and gas wells are produced. However, due to a significant decline in price since 2008, it has become increasingly important to run a more cost-effective operation. While most communications companies have responded with partial solutions, some have responded with multiple products that can be integrated into one unified solution. These systems are much more complex than the older systems, but they provide far greater versatility than the systems built 10 or 15 years ago.

This presentation provides attendees with an overview of how innovations in communication technologies for SCADA systems have evolved and explains the most effective practices for data collection.
