关于客户
Supreme Services, Inc. first opened its doors in 1984 and has since become one of the largest independent specialty rental companies in the United States. Located in Houma, Louisiana, the company supplies rentals for big-name oil and gas companies like Exxon and Shell. Supreme Services is growing at a rapid rate, employing 500+ workers. Supreme Services Technical Engineer, Walton Guidry, has helped transform the network management group into a fluid and copasetic team, having made it his mission from day one to make technological advancements within the company.
挑战
The expansion of Supreme Services resulted in more emails overflowing the staff’s inboxes. Emails came in so rapidly that employees were unable to recognize the difference between a customer or spam message. This resulted in employees avoiding checking their email altogether because a majority of their time was wasted sorting through spam. Guidry suggested an email security gateway be put in place and recommended Barracuda Networks since he had used it at his previous company, where upper-level management held Barracuda Networks in high regard. Now in a management role at Supreme Services, Guidry knew Barracuda Networks would be a reliable and cost-effective choice, as well as simple to implement within his network.
解决方案
Within the first week of the installation, the Barracuda Email Security Gateway blocked 100,000 spam messages. Employees were perplexed as to why their email was no longer overloaded with spam, asking Guidry if the server was down or broken. Guidry explained, “It only took a week to show how drastic a change the Email Security Gateway made for us. Our workplace productivity increased by twofold and people finally began to depend on our network again!” From a management perspective, Guidry was impressed with the Barracuda Email Security Gateway’s simple deployment and easy-to-navigate interface. Guidry found that the Barracuda Email Security Gateway feature set complemented his network, particularly the ability to track emails and have certain emails encrypted. The tracking feature helped solve disputes among employees or customers on multiple occasions. Both features dramatically increased the effective communication between Supreme Services employees and customers when working on deals together.

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.
