Failsafe Controls and Kepware repatriate client's process control

摘要

Kepware OPC Connectivity Suite links 1,800 locations across North America to OPC-UA server. Oilfield automation service provider Failsafe Controls has deployed OPC-UA-based technology from Kepware on an unnamed oil and gas production company's major project. The client had decided to repatriate a previously outsourced process control and data acquisition operation to an in-house solution. The move stemmed from a desire to 'empower teams with the ability to recognize trends, identify problems and optimize production.' Cost saving was also a factor. The project covered 1,800 well sites and about 120,000 I/O points throughout North America.
