HiberHilo is an integrated remote oil and gas monitoring solution that enables continuous data collection, transmission, and analysis without reliance on terrestrial infrastructure. The remote oil well monitoring solution was developed to overcome longstanding challenges in remote well monitoring, where high operational costs, limited connectivity, and dependence on manual data collection have historically restricted efficiency and visibility. As oil and gas operations increasingly expand into geographically isolated and technically complex environments, these conventional approaches struggle to deliver timely, accurate, and actionable insights.
HiberHilo addresses these limitations by providing a fully connected, end-to-end monitoring system that ensures reliable data flow from even the most inaccessible locations. By eliminating the need for on-site intervention and traditional communication networks, it enhances operational awareness, supports proactive decision-making, and improves both safety and cost efficiency across remote assets.
A New Standard for Remote Monitoring
HiberHilo enables operators to monitor wells and pipelines with greater accuracy, frequency, and reliability. The system collects operational data at defined intervals and transmits it via satellite connectivity to a secure, centralised dashboard. This allows engineering and operations teams to access real-time insights into asset performance, regardless of location. This approach supports a shift from manual and reactive monitoring to data-driven oilfield operations, improving decision-making and reducing operational risk.
Built for Remote and Distributed Assets
Many oil and gas assets are located in areas where traditional connectivity is unavailable or unreliable. These include offshore platforms, desert fields, mountainous regions, and late-life onshore assets. HiberHilo is specifically designed for these environments. By combining satellite IoT connectivity with low-power field devices, the system enables reliable monitoring without the need for fibre, cellular networks, or complex infrastructure. This makes it suitable for both new developments and existing assets where retrofitting traditional systems would be impractical.
Hardware: Sensors and End Devices
At the core of HiberHilo is a range of industrial-grade sensors and end devices designed for oil and gas applications. Wireless pressure and temperature sensors are deployed directly at the wellhead or along pipelines to capture critical operational data. These sensors are engineered for durability and can operate in harsh environments, including extreme temperatures and hazardous zones.
In addition to standard sensors, HiberHilo includes wired-to-wireless converters. These devices allow operators to connect existing analogue equipment, such as flow meters, gas detectors, or torque sensors, to the wireless network. This enables the integration of legacy infrastructure into a modern IoT-based monitoring system.
Multiple data inputs can be captured simultaneously, supporting a broad range of monitoring use cases, including:
- Production optimisation through pressure and flow monitoring
- Well integrity tracking via annular pressure data
- Pipeline monitoring and leak detection
- Equipment performance and condition monitoring
Connectivity: From Field to Cloud
HiberHilo uses a combination of LoRaWAN communication and satellite connectivity to ensure reliable data transmission.
Sensors communicate with nearby gateways using low-power, long-range wireless signals. These gateways then transmit the data via satellite networks to a secure cloud environment, enabling near real-time visibility.
This architecture ensures continuous remote oil well monitoring, even in areas with no cellular coverage. Data is delivered at regular intervals, providing operators with consistent and up-to-date insights into asset performance.
Software: Turning Data into Insight
All collected data is visualised through an intuitive monitoring dashboard.
The platform provides a clear overview of well and pipeline performance, including historical trends and real-time measurements. Automated alerts notify operators of abnormal conditions, enabling faster response times and reducing the risk of unplanned downtime.
This level of visibility supports more efficient operations and enables the implementation of predictive and prescriptive maintenance strategies.
Measurable Impact on Operations
The adoption of HiberHilo has delivered measurable improvements across a wide range of oil and gas operations. Operators using the system have achieved:
- Significant reductions in downtime through early issue detection
- Fewer site visits, lowering operational expenditure and HSE exposure
- Improved production performance through continuous optimisation
- Enhanced well integrity monitoring and regulatory compliance
By replacing manual data collection with continuous monitoring, HiberHilo enables more efficient use of engineering resources while improving overall asset reliability.
A Scalable, Integrated Solution
HiberHilo combines hardware, software, and connectivity into a single, integrated system.
The solution is designed for rapid deployment, with installations typically completed in a matter of hours without interrupting production. It is scalable across large asset portfolios, allowing operators to expand monitoring coverage as needed.
By eliminating the complexity associated with traditional systems, HiberHilo provides a cost-effective remote monitoring solution that supports both operational efficiency and long-term asset performance.
Enabling the Future of Oil and Gas Monitoring
Digital monitoring is becoming a fundamental component of modern oil and gas operations. The HiberHilo Remote oil well monitoring solution enables this transition by delivering reliable, scalable, and secure monitoring capabilities across even the most remote environments. With continuous access to critical data, operators can make more informed decisions, respond faster to issues, and maintain greater control over their assets.
