Prosjektoversikt

I industrielle miljøer er sanntidssiktbarhet inn i utstyrdata kritisk for driftstyring, overvåking og beslutningsstøtte. Xala bidro til IoT-fokusert plattformarbeid for NOV som involverte kommunikasjon med borestrenger og riggutstyr — ved hjelp av teknologier som MQTT, Azure IoT, Service Bus, WebSockets og SignalR for å støtte pålitelig sanntidsdataoverføring og industriell overvåkningskapasitet.

Utfordringen

  1. Innsamling og overføring av sanntidsdata fra tilkoblet industrielt utstyr pålitelig i et driftskritisk boringsmiljø.
  2. Lav latens meldingsoverføring mellom borestrenger og overvåkingssystemer med strenge pålitelighets- og tilgjengelighetskrav.
  3. Håndtering av høy telemetrivolum fra multiple tilkoblede riggkomponenter og utstyrsenheter.

Prosjektmål

  • Bygge pålitelig sanntidskommunikasjonsinfrastruktur for tilkoblet boreutstyr
  • Implementere MQTT-basert meldingsprotokoll for lave latensdataoverføringer
  • Integrere Azure IoT Hub og Service Bus for skybasert hendelseshåndtering
  • Levere SignalR-drevne sanntids-dashboardoppdateringer for riggoperatører
  • Sikre skalerbar IoT-plattformarkitektur for industriell vekst

Løsningen

Plattformen utnyttet Azure IoT Hub, MQTT-protokoll og Azure Service Bus for å skape en robust hendelsesdrevet kommunikasjonsinfrastruktur for NOVs industrielle boreutstyr. SignalR aktiverte sanntids-WebSocket-oppdateringer til overvåkningsdashboards, mens .NET-bakgrunnsarbeidere håndterte telemetriprosessering og hendelsesdistribusjon.
