Remote Shutdown (RSD)

Remote Shutdown (RSD)

Independent controls are critical to the success of production environments in the field or onsite. The Bluetick Remote Monitoring and Control (RMC) solution incorporates a Remote Shutdown Device (RSD) that enables a user to mitigate potentially dangerous or costly events. With an RSD, management of almost any device within a system is possible for any equipment with an on/off or open/close action. This would include pumps, valves, relays, lights, safety devices, or other complex equipment. The following are examples under which a Remote Shutdown Device is required:Manually turning off/on critical equipment in the fieldSafeguard against overflow spillsPrevent overflow of high liquids into a separatorControl saltwater disposal wellsImplement a well shut-in well to prevent liquids from entering the gas linesImplement a well shut-in when H2S levels exceed safe levels

One key characteristic of the Bluetick Remote Shutdown (RSD) is the ability to operate both manually through the Remote Monitoring and Control (RMC) application or automatically in the event there is a loss of connectivity. This important safety feature reduces the risk of environmental incidents that lead to extreme delays in production, potential fines or damage to equipment. Greater flexibility for both onsite and off site control is possible using the RSD to manage activities within the production environment.
