Description

The Universal Tag Locator (UTL) is the selected Point-C solution for Shift and crew Handovers and Ensure Plan Delivery, but it also serves as an information portal for ESP and production operations in a broader sense. It provides integrated information from many different sources in one place and as such helps to operate fac​ilities more effectively, reduce errors, improve operator experience and incr​ease transparency.

It is an all-encompassing tag monitoring and reporting system with extensive search and reporting features. Users can locate real-time instrument information from multiple data sources. The Site can create customizable end-of-shift reports that can be emailed to selected individuals to manage job tasks and improve continuity. Operating targets can be identified and tracked against established benchmarks. Alarms can be monitored and managed to identify at-risk process conditions.

Value to the business

• Contributes to Safety through improved Situational Awareness with all information in one place, IOW, DOW monitoring Contributes to optimising production by facilitating operating per sweet spot (due to manage EPD/ targets, DOI)
• Operator experience due to reduction of copy-paste and user friendliness Operator effectiveness through Improved Proactive Monitoring, better Abnormal situation Management (analysis through history, search) Improved communications – supporting Structured Day meetings
• Impact Production through better decision making (example decrease deferment) – from visibility of operational state across all Assets/ facilities Rationalisation, standardization of tools and approaches (also cross Asset/ disciplines)

Integration with other systems
