1. Opportunities for TETRA In the Oil & Gas Industry Robin Davis - Group Director Technology 2 nd Middle East Conference, Dubai 18 th May 2004

2. Setting the Scene - On Shore / Off Shore Production Facilities - Pipelines The Need for Information Reporting Process Control DATA Shortfalls in Current Systems Why use TETRA Opportunities for TETRA Summary Agenda 2 nd Middle East Conference, Dubai 18 th May 2004

3. Oil & Gas Production facilities are often in sparsely populated areas of the world. Setting the Scene 2 nd Middle East Conference, Dubai 18 th May 2004 Locations range from The North Sea Alaska The Desert And beyond…..

4. Setting the Scene Intrinsic Safety Is very Important ! Off shore Oil and Gas fields are commonly found in two distinct layouts :-  Distributed well-heads with pipelines to a central facility  Sub-surface completions linked back to a single collection facility Current communications include :- Fibre and Satellite for Linked Sites Radio, Fibre and Satellite for Distributed Sites

5. 2 nd Middle East Conference, Dubai 18 th May 2004 The Transportation facilities ‘Pipelines’ Typically :- Cover Many Miles Across varying terrain Across Multi Continents The need for Monitoring and Control is paramount for efficient and safe working Setting the Scene Monitoring Equipment installed throughout A complex systems environment

6. The Need for Information Reporting A Complex Environment with the need for good communications :-  Plant Operation and Maintenance  Emergency Response for Pollution  Fire and GAS Detection and Safety Systems  Operations Staff  Maintenance Staff  Contractors Staff  Process Control

7. This is Sometimes Difficult when sites are remote Helicopters are used for the Transmission of Data !

8. Process Control A Data Intense Environment :-  SCADA  Telemetry Data from sites using RTU  Automated plant and processes  Semi-automated plant and process  Safety and Permitting  Prioritised Alarm Management scheme  Distributed architecture across multiple sites

14. The shortfall of current Systems  Bandwidth Hungry  Limited Services often Data Only  Limited Applications  Expensive communications solutions using fibre or satellite  Insecure if over air interface  Multiple devices for multiple functionality - therefore non integrated and inconvenient  No Interoperability  No Security

15. Opportunities for TETRA  Secure Radio System  Voice and Data Facility  Telephony  DMO  SMS  SDS  IP & Packet Data  APL Facility  Emergency Button  Interoperability  Scaleable Technology  Intrinsically Safe Terminals

16. Data Requirements Reporting Tasks & Operations Surveillance Video Still & Video Work Force Management Tracking (APL) Information Push Instructions Unit Status Information Retrieval Chemicals Process Information Maps Task Information Field Telemetry Enviro Measurements Alarms Control & Monitoring

17. Link X X An ideal solution ?? Site 1 Site 2 Site 3  Where sites (onshore or offshore) are within site of each other  TETRA can be used as a local communications carrier  Offering Multi Functionality PSTN Access Status Messaging Telemetry Voice - Radio Person Location System Staff Scheduling Interoperability Database Access CCTV Control Room Maintenance Crews Plant Staff Email Emergency Button  Enabling Multi Functional Networks to be deployed  Ageing Telemetry Radio Can Be replaced Voice - Telephony

18. When it all goes Wrong … Interoperability is a real benefit !

19. TETRA, as a standard, can offer the Oil & Gas Industry: – Spectrum efficiency – Integrated voice and data – Multi vendors environment – Meets customers’ operational and functional needs – Secure – Health & Safety Advantages – Easier Integration with other systems – Interoperability – Intrinsic Safety Summary 2 nd Middle East Conference, Dubai 18 th May 2004 Real Benefits to the Industry ! And Ultimately :- – Faster and effective communication & Reporting – The right information at the right time
