SCADA Integration with OWM: A Smarter Way to Monitor Operations

SCADA Integration with OWM: A Smarter Way to Monitor Operations

Real-time insight isn’t just a luxury in the world of oil and gas, it’s a necessity. Unfortunately, when operators rely on both SCADA and third-party monitoring systems, things can get extremely complicated very fast. Juggling multiple interfaces, managing duplicate alarms, and piecing together fragmented data can lead to costly delays and decision-making challenges.

At RevSolz, we’re guided by the belief that monitoring should be seamless, not stressful. As a result, our Offset Well Monitoring (OWM) module integrates directly with SCADA systems, creating a unified platform that eliminates inefficiencies and empowers operators to make prompt, data-driven decisions.

SCADA: Built for the Long Haul, Not Short-Term Monitoring

At its foundation, SCADA systems are designed for long-term data acquisition, built to monitor well performance over years and even sometimes decades. They provide data essential for asset management and historical analysis, with reliable tracking of production rates, pressures, temperatures, and valve positions. However, SCADA’s limitations become apparent during critical operations like frac operations and offset well monitoring. To identify issues quickly and respond in the moment, operators need high-frequency, real-time data. Consequently, relying on SCADA alone often isn’t enough, leading companies to add complexity and cost top the situation by needing to hire third-party vendors for short-term monitoring.  

The Problem with Managing Multiple Systems
 

Operating third-party systems with SCADA creates several challenges:

• Inefficient Data Management: Switching between platforms wastes valuable time and increases the risk of missing critical insights
• Duplicate Alarms: Setting and managing alarms across different systems leads to redundancy and confusion
• Data Fragmentation: Storing data in separate clouds makes it harder to maintain a clear operational view
• Higher Costs: Working with multiple vendors means higher fees and more administrative burden
• Limited Alarming Capabilities: SCADA systems often rely on basic high/low threshold alarms, lacking the sophistication needed for complex operations
   

One Platform, Total Control with OWM

With FracSol OWM module, these challenges are solved by integrating SCADA data directly into its platform. Operators can monitor both SCADA and third-party gauge wells through a single, intuitive dashboard. Here’s how it changes the game:

• Unified Monitoring: all well data in one place, eliminating toggling between systems
• Simplified Alarming: Configure, manage, and customize alarms within FracSol OWM without duplicating efforts
• Smart Data Management: Automatically adjust sampling frequencies and data ports based on your operational needs
• Collaborative Workflows: Engineers can add notes, export files, and collaborate in real-time within a single platform

OWM gives you everything you need at your fingertips, with zero chasing down scattered data. 

Smarter Alarming, Greater Flexibility

Unlike traditional SCADA systems that rely solely on pressure thresholds, RevSolz takes alarming to a new level with FracSol OWM, as it offers advanced alarming options: 

1) Slope and Differential Alarms: Detect subtle changes in well performance

2) Port-Specific Monitoring: Track activity at precise locations

3) Custom Alerts: Choose how and when you receive notifications, whether via SMS, email, or directly on-screen

4) User-Specific Controls: Set personalized alarm preferences for individuals or entire teams

By reducing downtime and improving operational responsiveness, this level of flexibility ensures that the right people are alerted at the right time.
 

The RevSolz Advantage

With FracSol OWM module, we separate ourselves from others as most SCADA vendors don’t offer seamless third-party integration, and traditional monitoring providers aren’t equipped for in-depth software unification. 

Our FracSol OWM module handles all SCADA configurations, syncing data streams and automating adjustments. You get faster, clearer insights that drive better decisions with no extra burden on your team.
 

Real Results, Real Impact

Here’s what you can expect from integrating SCADA with OWM:

• Centralized asset monitoring, regardless of risk level
• Reduced operational complexity with a single alarm and alerting system
• Automated SCADA adjustments managed by RevSolz
• Cost savings from eliminating vendor redundancies
• Streamlined access to historical data for smarter long-term planning
• Customizable alarms tailored to your operational needs
