About The Customer
Greenergy International Ltd. is a London-based fuel company that supplies around one-fifth of the UK’s road fuel, as well as being the country’s principal supplier of biofuel. Greenergy sells about 175 million litres of fuel in the UK every week – enough to fill nearly 700 trucks per day. The company's customers include major oil companies and supermarkets for retail sale and biofuel for onward blending, as well as bus and logistics companies for fleet use. Greenergy is the 9th largest UK company with a revenue of 2.8 billion GBP.
The Challenge
Greenergy International Ltd., a London-based fuel company, needed to implement a system that could formally account and measure the tCO2 e emitted by the company annually. The company wanted to improve the quality of its reporting to key stakeholders and needed a fast turnaround. In June 2010, Ecometrica worked with Greenergy to quantify the greenhouse gas emissions associated with their operations for the financial year 2009/10. Ecometrica quantified Greenergy’s emissions from its fuel supply and distribution network, including the UK’s largest biofuel plant, as well as traditional office-based activity and business travel.
The Solution
Ecometrica supported Greenergy throughout the process, helping them to define what needed to be included in the scope of their assessment, and how to collect the necessary data. The results of the assessment were presented in a transparent and clear format using Ecometrica’s CDP-accredited web-based carbon accounting platform, Our Impacts. This provided Greenergy with the information necessary to understand and manage the GHG emissions associated with their operations.

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.

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.

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.
