• A text message that a compressor is down on Friday at 5 pm instead of a call from the pumper Monday at 9 am can add 10% of a months production

• An alarm that the dew point is over 5lbs can save flaring gas to bring it back within tolerance if it goes over 7lbs

• Being able to view tank levels on 30 tanks on one page can mean better cash flow for the month

• Viewing Pump off control data on the web by the engineer in another state is saving rod strings and reducing repairs

• Viewing plunger trips is delivering increased production through better instructions to the pumper on how to set the plunger control

• Chemical injection monitoring is insuring proper application of treatments and more timely inventory management

• Who remembers the buzz word ?

• Convergence – the melding of wireless data to the internet to markets and delivery.

• What a journey!

• Imagine – Online comparing check meters with sales meters– Tracking plunger lift cycles– Getting notification that a choke failed and sending

someone with the tools to fix it before the well sands up– A dewpoint alarm at 5 lbs and being notified that it was

fixed 3 hours later NO SHUT IN NO FLARE OFF– Your hauler getting the tank level indication at the same

time as your gauger – Having a report indicating loading and unloading of your

tanks– Tracking and recording temperatures and pressures on a

JT Skid– Setting % fill and down time on your POC from your desk
