关于客户
SM Energy Company is an independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids in onshore North America. The company operates in four core areas managed by four regional offices in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Billings, Montana; Midland, Texas; and Houston, Texas. Each office is staffed with a full complement of geologists, geophysicists, engineers, and landmen who have extensive experience in the region or basin where they work. The company has over 700 users on its network located all over the United States.
挑战
SM Energy Company, an independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids in onshore North America, was facing challenges in vulnerability assessment and patch management. With a team of only two individuals devoted to patching and scans, the organization was unable to put a formal remediation strategy in place due to lack of useful information. With over 700 users on the network located all over the United States, SM Energy was in need of a solution that would ease the burden of patching and increase the overall security program effectiveness without the high cost of redesigning critical infrastructure. They were using SCCM, Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager, as a standalone product, which required a lot of time to deploy patches and then validate that they were deployed correctly. However, there was no visible or measurable outcome from this patching effort that showcased if they were providing a better security stance.
解决方案
SM Energy Company chose Retina CS, a solution from BeyondTrust, to handle their needs. Retina CS is the only vulnerability management platform designed from the ground up to provide IT security professionals with context-aware vulnerability assessment and risk analysis. Retina’s results-oriented architecture works with users to proactively identify security exposures, analyze business impact, and plan and conduct remediation across network, web, mobile, cloud and virtual infrastructure. With the most powerful reporting and analytics capabilities in its class, Retina makes it easy to make smart decisions, effectively communicate risk, and report vulnerability management progress to executives and compliance auditors. Built to scale and perform in large environments, Retina CS provides centralized command and control over assessments of disparate and heterogeneous infrastructure. The Retina CS solution with patching services was able to comprehensively fulfill SM Energy’s needs, providing patch management and vulnerability assessment capabilities while maintaining the existing infrastructure including their SCCM implementation.

Case Study
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.
Case Study
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.
