Level & Flow Monitoring in Oil & Gas

Water supply and waste management are critical in the Oil and Gas industry, where level and flow measurements play a key role in managing this vital resource.
Level & Flow Monitoring in Oil & Gas

The Oil and Gas industry relies on water for drilling, hydraulic fracturing and refining. It’s also a natural byproduct of extracting hydrocarbons from the earth. Needless to say, the supply and waste management of water in the O&G industry is critical. Level and flow are important measurements for managing this most vital resource.

 

Oilfield service companies that specialize in water management do everything from constructing frac pits to wastewater treatment. Along the way, they monitor level and flow in pipes, tanks, and pits at various stages.
While there are many data acquisition modules out there, they tend to be very pricey and often lack the flexibility needed. In the case of one customer, they wanted something reliable and affordable that would immediately alert their custom cloud environment of specific status updates. 

Streamline your oil and gas operations with reliable and cost-effective level and flow monitoring!

Discover how ControlByWeb's X-404C IoT controllers can optimize your water management system

ControlByWeb programmable IoT controllers provide an easy-to-deploy, flexible data acquisition and controls platform for often remote and/or temporary locations. We specialize in simple monitoring and control of a variety of field conditions such as level, flow, pressure, temperature and more.

Hazardous Approval

Our control modules are not certified for hazardous locations. However, they are often used in hazloc approved cabinets or in control cabinets just outside the hazardous aera. Both scenarios require the use of an intrinsic safety barrier. Be sure to use a certified electrician that specializes in hazardous locations.
Many of the sensors we carry have hazloc certifications. Contact us to discuss your application and we can help you choose the right sensor.

Level Monitoring

The answer depends on your level sensor. For analog devices, our X-420 and X-418 are ideal. They accept both 4-20mA and 0-10V signals. For Modbus RS-485 sensors, the X-404 is perfect. All of these devices are great at data acquisition, data logging, remote alarms, and more.

Cellular Coverage

Our cellular devices connect to AT&T and T-Mobile.

Remote Use

Can ControlByWeb devices be used in remote locations?
Yes, our devices are built for remote monitoring. They can connect to an TCP/IP network through an ethernet connection. You can get an ethernet connection to them through a variety of means. A few of our devices have built-in cellular modems. Our cellular devices can use the cellular network as their primary connection or connect to an ethernet network and use cellular as a failover connection.
