NexLog DX-Series Recording Solutions
Secure, Compliant, and Resilient Communication Recording Solutions
Compliance and Security
Oil and gas operations must adhere to stringent safety and regulatory requirements. Eventide's solutions support compliance with industry mandates through encrypted storage, secure access controls, and complete audit trails. This helps companies maintain legal compliance while protecting sensitive communications data.
Reliability and Scalability
Eventide’s Linux-based NexLog DX-Series recorders provide high stability and scalability and easily handle complex, large-scale operations . This allows oil and gas companies to expand their operations without compromising the integrity or accessibility of their recorded data.
Operational Efficiency
Integrating voice, screen, and video recording capabilities facilitates detailed incident reviews and operational assessments, which are critical for improving safety protocols and training in high-risk environments like oil and gas extraction and refining.
Multisite Synchronization
The industry-unique Smart Edge Capture Device (SECD) allows for the recording of any number of remote sites (e.g. oil or gas well heads) and transferring the recordings back to a central site where all communications can be monitored and analyzed for safety and performance. The unique caching feature allows for remote storage for of up to 30 days of recordings if the communications link goes down between the remote and central sites.
Remote Accessibility and Resource Consolidation
Eventide’s CloudSync allows oil and gas companies to access recordings from anywhere with an internet connection, which is vital for companies with remote sites or offshore platforms. It also supports resource sharing across multiple locations, optimizing operational efficiency.
Mission-Critical Resiliency
Eventide’s NexLog DX-Series recorders and CloudSync offer robust disaster recovery capabilities. This combination ensures that recordings are securely backed up and immediately available in near real-time in AWS or other public cloud environments, minimizing downtime in case of primary site failures. This is essential for oil and gas companies that need continuous operations, even during natural disasters or technical failures.
Eventide’s Global Commitment to Oil and Gas
Aramco prides itself on maintaining energy security while advancing sustainability initiatives. The company is deeply committed to reducing its carbon footprint and maximizing the value of every barrel of oil, not just through traditional energy products but also through its ventures in chemicals, non-metallic materials, and high-performance fuel technologies. This approach aligns with Aramco's global vision to remain a reliable energy supplier while contributing to environmental goals and Saudi Arabia's economic development.
ADNOC’s operations are deeply rooted in efficiency and innovation. Through projects like the Offshore Electrification initiative, ADNOC aims to reduce its offshore carbon footprint by up to 50%. Moreover, ADNOC is pioneering energy solutions with cutting-edge technologies such as 3D seismic surveys and carbon capture and is working toward achieving gas self-sufficiency for the UAE.
QatarEnergy LNG emphasizes innovation, efficiency, and reliability. Initiatives like Ras Laffan Industrial City integrate LNG production, storage, and export capabilities. The company's expansion projects aim to increase production to 126 million tonnes per year, positioning it as a leader in the global LNG market.
“Through the Qatargas 2 project, not only will Qatar be capable of supplying up to 20% of the United Kingdom’s gas needs, but the country’s reserves could meet the UK’s gas needs for the next 250 years.”
Woodside's commitment to sustainability is a key differentiator. The company aims to achieve net zero by 2050, supported by investments in low-carbon energy solutions. Their Scarborough Energy Project further exemplifies their focus on providing cleaner energy while supporting economic growth and job creation.
