In the oil and gas industry, managing tank levels and optimizing trucking logistics are not just operational tasks—they’re critical challenges that can significantly impact efficiency and costs, especially during winter months. Inefficient tank management can lead to emergency situations, where tanks run dry, causing operational shutdowns and financial losses.
Traditional logistics approaches often result in suboptimal routing and scheduling, leading to increased costs and environmental impact due to unnecessary travel time.
To tackle this, at EZ Ops we developed an AI solution that addresses these challenges head-on empowering operators with the right tools to prevent shortages, manage resources more effectively, and ensure continuous, cost-efficient operations. Here’s how it works:
Trucking Optimization for Production and Consumption Tanks
This feature uses manually captured or SCADA tank level readings from EZ Ops locations. It integrates data such as commodity prices and the locations of chemical providers to optimize trucking routes and schedules.
The goal is to ensure that tanks are either emptied or filled just in time, preventing any operational disruptions.
Maintenance Optimization for Contractor Work:
This module is designed to streamline contractor management, encompassing both routine and unexpected maintenance work. It utilizes data like preventative maintenance schedules and task details from EZ Ops, enhancing operational efficiency.
Key Features for Seamless Management:
EZ Ops offers a user-friendly logistics management interface, simplifying the review and organization of work packages. The solution also boasts streamlined integration with our truck ticketing system Payload for further contractor management, from job completion to payment.
