关于客户
Baker Hughes is a leading oilfield service company that provides the worldwide oil and natural gas industry with products and services for drilling, formation evaluation, completion, and production. The company is based in Houston, Texas, U.S., and operates in more than 90 countries across the Americas, Europe, Africa, Russia Caspian, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region. With more than 34,000 employees, Baker Hughes is known for its collaborative approach to business, listening to its clients to understand their unique challenges and then developing solutions to help them manage expenses, maximize assets, and achieve a good return on investment.
挑战
Baker Hughes, a top-tier oilfield service company, wanted to optimize its Procure-to-Pay (P2P) process to improve invoice accuracy, minimize delivery delays, and reduce late payments. The company needed a world-class Business Process Management (BPM) solution to increase process agility, visibility, and control. The company was looking for a solution that could provide real-time metrics and alerts for process abnormalities, reduce invoice errors and payment delinquency rates, and save costs on every invoice.
解决方案
Baker Hughes built on its investment in the webMethods integration platform by adding webMethods BPMS to gain new efficient capabilities for process modeling and execution. The company used webMethods Optimize for SAP to create a real-time dashboard to proactively monitor P2P activities, end-to-end, across different systems. By adding Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) with webMethods Optimize for SAP, Baker Hughes gained 'business process instrumentation,' allowing management to measure workflow performance and then improve processes. The company also used webMethods Trading Networks as a single B2B gateway with suppliers and clients.

Case Study
Taking Oil and Gas Exploration to the Next Level
DownUnder GeoSolutions (DUG) wanted to increase computing performance by 5 to 10 times to improve seismic processing. The solution must build on current architecture software investments without sacrificing existing software and scale computing without scaling IT infrastructure costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.
Case Study
Refinery Saves Over $700,000 with Smart Wireless
One of the largest petroleum refineries in the world is equipped to refine various types of crude oil and manufacture various grades of fuel from motor gasoline to Aviation Turbine Fuel. Due to wear and tear, eight hydrogen valves in each refinery were leaking, and each cost $1800 per ton of hydrogen vented. The plant also had leakage on nearly 30 flare control hydrocarbon valves. The refinery wanted a continuous, online monitoring system that could catch leaks early, minimize hydrogen and hydrocarbon production losses, and improve safety for maintenance.
