With coverage across 90 percent of the United States and coastal regions, WellLynx offers oil and gas companies a convenient way to collect data from their well sites. The device operates on a wireless GSM communications system eliminating the need to construct towers, install phone lines or obtain path surveys and radio licenses. As a result, users can check compressor status, tank levels, casing and tubing pressures, flow rates and even valve positions through a Web interface.
"With WellLynx, we are able to add communications and additional inputs/outputs to our flow computers that are currently only able to do measurement, which saves us about $700 per unit," said Dusty Driggars, measurement supervisor for Scissortail Pipeline. "The ease of installation also saves our technicians several hours of labor."
WellLynx also features a highly sensitive alarm system that notifies users of any adverse conditions. Even discrete changes in input levels trigger e-mails to users and updates to the Web interface within two minutes.
Since 2000, eLynx Technologies has provided real-time data collection, production reporting, trending, well monitoring and control via the Internet for the oil and gas industry. The company services more than 215 exploration and production companies and operates in more than 20 states.
