Emerson has redesigned its DeltaV SaaS SCADA mobile app, adding new tools to help operators and technicians monitor alarms, plan routes and manage operations from the field.
The Pipeline Open Data Standard (PODS) Association has released a new SCADA Link Module that lets operators tie supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) readings directly to geospatial data in their PODS databases.
In 2007, the Pipeline Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) released a Notice of Preliminary Rule Making (NPRM), known as the Control Room Management (CRM) rule. Since the CRM rule went into full effect in 2012, pipeline operators have seen significant transformation in the control room operation.
ABB has implemented automation and digital systems across IndianOil’s 20,000-km pipeline network using its SCADAvantage platform, enhancing real-time monitoring, cybersecurity, and operational efficiency.
Schneider Electric has introduced new cybersecurity features for its SCADAPack 470i and 474i remote terminal units (RTUs), aiming to enhance operational technology (OT) security for critical infrastructure.

The comprehensive “Volume X: The World Market for Flowmeters, 9th Edition” study from Flow Research reveals that the worldwide market for all types of flowmeter technologies totaled $7.6 billion in 2022 and $7.9 billion in 2023, with revenues forecast to reach $9.6 billion in 2027.
Explore essential skills and strategies for measurement technicians to bridge the industry skills gap, adapt to technological advancements, and excel in pipeline operations. This comprehensive guide covers training, communication, and practical tips for success.
Accurate, real-time data is essential to succeeding in the oil and gas industry. Engineers need operational data from the field to calibrate equipment, schedule maintenance activities and coordinate with third-party logistics, to keep the flow of product moving.
(P&GJ) — The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced an update to its Security Directive regarding oil and natural gas pipeline cybersecurity. This revised directive will continue the effort to reinforce cybersecurity preparedness and resilience for the nation's critical pipelines.
(P&GJ) — Implementing a comprehensive control room management (CRM) plan in today’s energy market can be a challenging task in that integrating it with modern supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems adds layers of complexity to the project’s implementation and compliance requirements.
EPIC’s cutting edge environmental and safety protections are possible through using fiber optics to monitor over 1,600 miles of its crude and NGL pipelines.
In remote locations, communications may be slow, intermittent or unreliable. The RTU is the device at the edge – sitting between the control room and the field instruments – that provides a low-latency response to changing site conditions and performs data filtering.
In the “allegory of the cave” by Plato, people have been imprisoned inside a cave for their entire lives, tied and bound so they can only see the stone wall in front of them. Behind them is a fire. Between the fire and the prisoners is a raised walkway, which contains objects. Puppeteers manipulate the objects, cast shadows on the wall, and also make noises.
Just as technology advances helped drive U.S. oil and gas producers to new heights, operators of the energy highways – the pipelines and their sophisticated control centers – are increasingly harnessing innovation to gain efficiency.
