Autonomous Well Pad
Data Acquisition System
Oil & gas well pad automation based on the ROSSMA IIoT-AMS platform: wireless sensors, edge server, unified software
Problems of Traditional Monitoring
Challenges faced by oil & gas enterprises without modern automation
Manual Inspection
Up to 24-hour delay in incident detection. Operators physically drive to wells.
Downtime Losses
5–15 tons of oil per incident. Delayed response to equipment failures.
Expensive Wired Solutions
3–6 M₽ per well pad. Cable routing in harsh conditions.
Remote Locations
No stable connectivity or infrastructure at field sites.
