fieldcloud helps you

securely capture, transfer and store your real

time process data

inside your firewall or in the cloud…

beyond M2M, more secure than SCADA


about us

Founded in 2009, fieldcloud SAS is based near

Grenoble, France’s high-tech hub city in the Alps.

We provide consulting, IT subcontracting services and

sell a ruggedized, low power data gateway product –

the ns-box.

Our focus is mainly on the energy sector – upstream

Oil & Gas applications.

today’s challenge…

reservoir and production engineers need data.

on time. at the right time.

getting data out of production process control

systems and into analysis tools is not always

straightforward.

nice concept. but isn’t this a huge, complicated undertaking?

not if we keep the enabling infrastructure simple and efficient

a simple, efficient, automated data delivery serviceAllowing you to connect end users and custom applications at your own pace…

Instruments SCADA Legacy OPCHistorian

Without affecting your existing SCADA and process control systems…


why we took a different approach…

wells are completed. time passes.

surface facilities are built. time passes.

integration projects happen. time passes.

and the reservoir engineer is still waiting for his data…

so we thought:

“can’t we speed things up and make it easier to deploy end to end data delivery solutions?”


faster deployment


easier integration


without a cast of thousands


what does the fieldcloud do exactly?

collect, transfer and store production measurement data

data is available at the right time, to the right people

runs parallel to process control systems

no need for an expensive SCADA historian

no risk to production operations process

no need to touch legacy systems

no need for complex systems integration

no additional IT security risks


simple.

collect, deliver & store data

and make it available at the right time to

the right people
