Challenge
Enerfin is a midstream company in Oklahoma. One of their cryo facilities was in need of upgrade. It was a legacy wonderware system that would go out intermittently. This was costly in terms of manpower to repair it and downtime for the plant.
Solution
Plow proposed using a hybrid blend of Ignition for the local systems and OnPing for the cloud systems. We also proposed leveraging our managed edge solution, the lumberjack. This allowed us to deploy the ignition systems in a containerized and redundant way with cloud backup quickly available.
Results
Since this deployment, reliability of the system has been drastically improved. Gone are the days of computers freezing and everyone scrambling to figure out why. With 2 redundant lumberjacks that are both backed up to the cloud the plant system is on solid ground for years to come.
Summary (contact link)
Enerfin needed to upgrade a plant to run more efficiently. The budget was tight and the timeline was tighter. Plow used our unique blend of cloud enabled and on premises pieces to get them going smoothly and on budget.
