Sector
Communications and control for upstream, midstream and downstream in Peru
Sector parameters
The challenge
Oil, gas, and petrochemical operations demand the highest level of availability and security in communications: a failure in a pipeline control system or platform coordination can have catastrophic consequences. In Peru, transandean gas pipeline operations, upstream gas natural platforms, and national refineries require resilient networks operating in remote jungle, altiplano, and sea zones. ATEX Zone 0/1/2 regulations are mandatory in risk zones. EMAR SYSTEMS provides the communications, dispatch, and control infrastructure that guarantees uninterrupted operation.
Operational scenarios
01
Rajant BreadCrumb nodes in ATEX Zone 1/2 version provide IP connectivity on marine platforms and separation plants where conventional WiFi systems cannot be installed. The Kinetic Mesh network is tolerant to individual node failures: if one device fails, traffic is instantly rerouted through neighboring nodes.
02
Zetron MAX integrates UHF/VHF field radio, VoIP, SCADA telemetry, and supervisory video in a single console for pipeline operators. P25 and DMR protocols for communication with field crews, with forensic recording of all communications for OSINERGMIN regulatory compliance.
03
In midstream operations with multiple compression stations distributed over hundreds of kilometers, time synchronization is critical for event correlation. Bitstream's TS-3000 provides GPS time with <100 ns accuracy for remote stations without internet access, enabling reliable Sequence of Events (SOE) analysis.
04
Key capabilities
Resilient networks for mission-critical environments. Mesh radio, vehicle intercom, integrated hearing protection.
