Digitalization of KATCO WellField

Our company has long been interested in obtaining data from the geotechnological field (so called, WellField), as this will significantly increase the controllability of the technological process.

However, due to the huge territory, digitalization of the Katko WellField has long been difficult. The difficulty is primarily in data transmission - transmission via fiber optics is too expensive, and wireless transmission faces difficulties due to sand dunes that characterize our WellField.

Recently, a digitalization project has been developed that bypasses the previous difficulties. Project is currently at the implementation stage.
