 Oilfield production teams are under increasing pressure to optimize output, reduce downtime, and make faster decisions often with fewer boots on the ground. That’s where Trinity SCADA comes in. Built specifically for upstream operations, Trinity SCADA makes remote oil production tracking not just possible, but efficient, accurate, and proactive.


1. Real-Time Data Collection at the Wellhead

At the core of remote tracking is reliable field data. Trinity SCADA integrates with a wide range of sensors and PLCs installed at the well site, including:

  • Flow meters

  • Tank level sensors

  • Pump-off controllers

  • Pressure and temperature sensors

This data is captured continuously and fed into the SCADA system for processing and visualization eliminating the need for manual gauge sheets or delayed reporting.



2. Edge Intelligence & Local Decision-Making

Before data even hits the cloud, Trinity’s edge-capable RTUs apply basic logic and filtering. This means:

  • Local control actions (like shutting in a well) can happen instantly

  • Network bandwidth is preserved by sending only relevant data

  • Operators receive cleaner, more contextual alerts

It’s smarter automation — not just remote viewing.



3. Cloud-Based Visualization & Dashboards

All field data is transmitted securely to Trinity’s cloud-based SCADA dashboard, where users can:

  • View live production rates per well, pad, or leaseTrack cumulative production vs. targets

  • Spot anomalies in pressure, flow, or runtime

  • Pull historical trends for reporting or forecasting

The dashboards are accessible via desktop, tablet, or mobile so whether you’re in the office or on the move, your data is just a tap away.



4. Custom Alerts That Keep Operators Ahead

Trinity SCADA doesn’t wait for someone to log in. It proactively monitors field conditions and sends:

  • Instant alerts when production drops

  • Notifications for tank levels nearing high or low thresholds

  • Warnings when runtime deviates from normal patterns

These alerts can be delivered by text, email, or in-app notifications helping teams act before problems escalate.



5. Production Reporting Without the Headaches

Forget compiling spreadsheets or chasing daily numbers. With Trinity SCADA, operators and executives can:

  • Automatically generate daily and monthly production reports

  • Export data for regulatory compliance Sync with accounting or ERP systems for seamless workflows

No more manual entry. Just clean, consistent, and timely reports.



Conclusion: Smarter Monitoring = Better Production Decisions

Remote monitoring isn’t just a convenience  it’s a competitive edge. With Trinity SCADA, you get a purpose-built platform that tracks every drop of oil, keeps your team informed in real time, and helps reduce costly downtime. It’s how modern oilfields stay lean, connected, and in control.
