This article is part of a series examining the key considerations that shape successful SCADA modernization projects in oil and gas pipeline operations. Every SCADA modernization involves a decision about platforms. Far fewer begin with a complete picture of what...

This article is part of a series examining the most common pitfalls operators encounter when modernizing legacy SCADA systems in oil and gas pipeline operations. When a pipeline operator plans a SCADA modernization, alarm management rarely receives the attention it...

This article is part of a series examining the most common pitfalls operators encounter when modernizing legacy SCADA systems in oil and gas pipeline operations. There is a version of SCADA modernization that looks, from the outside, like a success. The new platform...

Legacy SCADA modernization is one of the most complex undertakings in oil and gas pipeline operations. It is also one of the most important to approach with the right strategy. Operators who have successfully run aging infrastructure for years often approach a SCADA...

For decades, operational technology (OT) environments in oil and gas were protected by a straightforward principle: isolation. SCADA systems, remote terminal units (RTUs), and programmable logic controllers operated on proprietary or air-gapped networks, largely...

In the midstream sector, a SCADA migration is a high-stakes transition where precision isn't just a goal—it’s a requirement for safety and compliance. PipeCom recently spearheaded a complex issue resolution and cutover project for a major North American...
