Remotely Manage Pumps
Remotely manage pumps and meeting emission standards
- The Challenge
Managing a midstream pump in Wyoming from a centre in Tulsa
- The Solution
Diesel engine package that meets environmental emission standards
- The Impact
Emission standards were met with significant reduction in fuel costs
Client:NGL Pumping Station
Location:North America
Sectors:Oil and Gas
The Challenge
Manage a pump facility remotely while meeting emission standards
Midstream pumping facilities keep products in the pipelines moving to their destination but are one of the highest energy costs. Managing the load for supply and demand is a critical part of keeping costs down but because the facilities are usually located in remote locations it’s not possible to have round-the-clock on-site technical support. The industry go-to solution is to manage the pumps remotely and this was the case for a producer who wanted to manage pumps in a remote and rugged part of Wyoming from their Tulsa operations. The extra challenge was that the system had to comply with US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emission standards.
