What Downstream O&G Operators Want: 3 Takeaways from the Downstream 2019 Exhibition

What do you offer a downstream oil and gas company that has it all? Better operational insights and communications, of course! Good thing that Aegex Technologies, along with partner Exloc Instruments Inc., had just the right solutions to offer during the recent Downstream 2019 exhibition, June 11-12, in Houston: the Aegex NexVu IoT Solution, aegex10 Intrinsically Safe Tablet and Extronics’ iRFID500 tag reader.

Our top 3 takeaways from the event were that Downstream operators want to:

  • View more: Downstream companies can benefit from solutions that allow them to see more of the inner workings of their operations to better understand what is going right, what needs improvement and what could be a potential problem – before it happens. The Aegex NexVu IoT Solution, whose newest modular sensor array debuted at Downstream 2019, allows operators to quickly and easily snap together intrinsically safe sensor nodes of their choice for real-time, cloud-based data about the conditions they want to monitor in their downstream operations. With this “next view” of operations, they can they make more informed decisions that help things run more smoothly.

  • Share more: If downstream companies gain better insight into processes through better data from NexVu, they want to make sure all personnel have seamless access to that information. They want teams working in the most hazardous zones of operations like Class I Division 1 to be able to communicate via email and Skype, complete reports digitally, access online resources, use the latest industry applications, and take advantage of other modern computing resources. The aegex10 Intrinsically Safe Tablet lets them do these things and more.

  • Track more: Efficient asset tracking can help streamline processes for downstream operations. With Extronics’ iRFID500 handheld passive RFID tag reader, operators can view RFID tags in real time, monitor maintenance planning and demonstrate regulatory compliance. When connected by Bluetooth to an aegex10 tablet, the iRFID500 makes keeping track of…everything… a snap!

Thanks for joining Aegex and our partner Exloc Instruments at Downstream 2019! We look forward to hearing from you about your downstream (and upstream and midstream) oil and gas challenges – we’re here to help!
