New Integrated Network and Smart Gas Station Solutions Enhance Efficiency and Security
DUBAI, UAE, Oct. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — At the HUAWEI CONNECT 2022 event in Dubai, Huawei announced the launch of two scenario-based solutions tailored for the oil and gas sector: the Integrated Oil & Gas Field Network and the Smart Gas Station.
Integrated Oil & Gas Field Network Solution
The oilfield network systems encounter various challenges, including complex architectures, numerous network layers, operational difficulties, and low reliability, which hinder digital transformation in the industry. To address these issues, Huawei has developed an integrated network solution specifically designed for oil and gas fields, leveraging its extensive experience in network planning and consulting.
Key features of the solution include:
Unified Architecture: The network integrates a full stack of technologies—industrial PON, Wi-Fi 6, 5G, and IPv6—creating a cohesive network that streamlines operations across cloud, network, edge, and devices.
Centralized Management: A singular operations and management (O&M) platform enables the integration of all third-party devices, allowing for comprehensive network visualization and efficient routine management.
Multi-Purpose Network: The architecture supports multiple services, including production, video surveillance, office functions, and community engagement, all on a single physical network, reducing overall investment.
Integrated Security: Employing advanced isolation technologies like Flex-E and NHP, the solution enhances security measures between service networks without incurring additional construction costs.
Smart Gas Station Solution
Recognizing that gas stations are essential for oil retail, Huawei’s Smart Gas Station Solution incorporates digital technologies to revolutionize services and operations at these facilities. This all-in-one solution features:
Central Digital Platform: A comprehensive platform that facilitates centralized management of station data, including video monitoring and IoT standards.
Integrated Systems: The solution combines isolated service subsystems, such as fuel dispensers and payment platforms, to provide a detailed analysis and monitoring platform for oil retailers.
Smart Services: Enhancements such as drive-up refueling reduce time from six minutes to just two, boosting customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.
Smart Marketing: The system enables targeted communication of oil price changes and promotions, driving engagement and increasing revenue.
Smart Management: All operations are visualized for enhanced oversight, enabling the identification of risky actions and supporting data-driven decision-making.
Looking ahead, Huawei aims to further explore scenarios within the oil and gas industry. Through collaboration across multiple technologies and the development of scenario-based solutions, Huawei is committed to fostering innovation and driving digital transformation in the sector.
