How many here have a Fitbit or have used Nike+? Anyone have a Nest at home? Great, the Internet of Things, also called IOT, is alive and well in our everyday lives. And it’s taking hold in the oil patch, too, with everything from air quality sensors to UAS (unmanned aircraft systems) to the real-time data being shared between machines in more and more devices. Today’s panel will touch on a number of facets around IOT and the oil patch and we’re starting big with networks then moving to machines then finally data and publishing - the bytes. Our first panelist, Roopa Misra from Geoforce, will explain the IOT in a little more detail and share how taking an enterprise approach has helped their customers keep a real-time handle on their projects. Next, Chris Blackford of Sky Futures will share with us what drones, er, Unmanned Aircraft Systems – UAS – can do in the oil patch and offshore. And finally John Yurkanin of RigData will take us into the bytes and how it’s not all machine-to-machine communications in every industry.

IOT Brings Control to Chaotic Oilfield Operations

5. Is there a way to make sure I get paid for the entire time
our equipment is on rent in the field?
Can I know where equipment is in the field BEFORE I send a
truck to retrieve it?
If there is an ASAP job can I dispatch the nearest
equipment – instead of having to call to find out
locations?
Why do I still get calls at 2:00 am telling me some
generator has stopped working ?

9. • UAS are already being used routinely
within oil and gas operations to
inspect infrastructure
• UAS can get data from hard to access
areas in real time
• Data can be collected quickly and
safely without the need for rope
climbers or helicopters
• Thermal and Visual data collection
and analysis
• Technology solutions to industry
problems

17. In “The Imitation Game’ Turing’s character says
“In the near future you will have a conversation and not
know if you are having it with a machine or a person”
The upstream energy industry is driven by its data and the
ability to select the useful from massive quantities. The
machine vastly enables the sort but it remains the mind that
finds the lessons that drive actions
