For remote wellhead surveillance and data acquisition, each wellhead supports a full array of automated data logging, monitoring, and control devices that connect via cellular to a miles-distant central control room. Streams of sensor data from drilling and other equipment transmit to metering, processing, and control stations: – Field and seismic data continuously transmit to an onshore network operations center (NOC) – The onshore NOC remotely monitors and controls platform equipment – Initiates alerts when systems are about to experience a high-pressure situation or any other unsafe issues
