Remote Data Entry, Communications, and Reporting for Crude Oil Gathering Operations.
The CrudeNet System provides each driver/gauger with a portable hand-held computer and printer for information collection and ticket printing in the field. Through the connection with the Fleetrax on-board data system, the hand-held is capable of reporting real time truck and driver performance data. This information is transmitted to the company home office computers.
The hand-held computer stores all run ticket data, unloading station inventory and driver duty status records.
The truck based impact printer allows the driver/gauger to print the ticket and the required number of copies at the lease site, and also the next shift's dispatch list.
The Fleetrax on-board data system is mounted in the vehicle and electronically monitors vehicle operations, recording exceptions to preset standards as they occur, as well as date, time, odometer reading, engine RPM, pump use, and location (latitude and longitude) from the GPS receiver.
At the office, management receives Fleetrax on-board data system and hand-held computer entered data. CrudeNet software automatically arranges the data into a detail or summary report of field activities and provides two-way communication with the home office host computer system.
CrudeNet generated data can automatically produce dispatch reports, incentive based payroll calculations, crude oil inventory reports, over and short reports by unloading station, truck maintenance reports, and inspection reports.
CrudeNet can directly communicate with a Revenue/Royalty Distribution System and provide run ticket data with temperature and gravity corrected volumes (API tables 5A & 6A).
CrudeNet is available for truck gathering or pipeline operations.
