RTU Wireless I/O Technology Pilot Result

Abstract: Addressing the growing business needs for enhanced remote monitoring of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is a real challenge nowadays. For example, Oil, Gas, and Water Plants require the ability to access and monitor scattered remote areas, Pipelines, and well sites. However, remote monitoring can be a challenge that requires a reliable system. As a result, wireless technologies such as ISA100.11a are becoming the standard platform for SCADA and remote applications. These wireless solutions are being introduced to serve SCADA applications, as their reliability can satisfy the business needs of connecting many sites and plants easily, minimizing costs and increasing flexibility. This technology was demonstrated in a proof of concept (POC) that tested the use of remote monitoring and wireless solutions for Industrial remote control, including SCADA systems. A Yokogawa SCADA system, including a RTU and SCADA host, was used as the SCADA platform, while a wireless communication RTU I/O module served as the communication platform with a gateway. The POC setup and evaluation took place at the well site in July 2018, utilizing various wireless solutions such as wireless I/O modules, antennas, and field instruments. The pilot utilized an Industrial RTU Wireless I/O Technology from Yokogawa at a Well Site and successfully produced reliable measurements compared with the existing wired solution for more than six (6) years. As a result, the team concluded that the RTU Wireless I/O Technology is promising for new projects in well head RTU applications to realize cost avoidance and reduce project execution time. In conclusion, the use of ISA100.11A technology, combined with remote monitoring and optimized design, can effectively address the business needs for improved remote monitoring of industrial automation and control systems.
