Trican Increases Field Worker Productivity With NetMotion Mobility

Trican Well Service Ltd., headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, provides a comprehensive array of products, equipment, and services utilized by oil and gas exploration and production companies. With business operations across Canada, the United States, Russia, and Kazakhstan, Trican’s 1,500+ field workers find themselves in many wireless communication-challenged environments.

Objective

Trican’s objective was to launch a work process initiative focused on increasing the productivity of central and field office staff. Through their initiative, field workers could send real-time streaming ‘oil well fracturing data’ to staff in their corporate offices. The initiative also included launching a new billing / ticketing system that would reduce overall invoice cycle times. To accomplish their objectives, field workers needed to connect to a variety of wireless and wired networks including cellular data, Wi-Fi, satellite, and dial-up.
