Every Drop Matters: Shale Oil Operations Prioritize Water Management

Shale oil operations rely on effective water management to handle and prevent spills and contamination caused by managing large volumes of produced water. Goodnight Midstream, a saltwater management company, monitors and maintains over 450 miles of pipelines, ensuring accurate data and effective management even in remote and harsh conditions.

The company faced obstacles in maintaining pipeline integrity, collecting reliable data, and efficiently managing remote sites. The lengthy setup of their new SCADA systems added complexity to operations, making it challenging to meet evolving needs and deployment deadlines.

To address these challenges, Moxa and INS provided a comprehensive solution and support, improving network reliability and reducing setup time, enabling Goodnight Midstream to streamline operations and ensure smooth functioning.
