In the oil and gas industry, the demand for specialized expertise is immense, but accessing the right expertise on-site can be costly and time-consuming. Traveling experts to remote locations isn't always feasible, and finding specialized knowledge in certain areas may require a significant investment of time and resources. But what if there was a way to bridge this gap and provide high-quality support from anywhere, reducing costs and increasing efficiency?
At Rugged.One, we believe that the solution lies in Getac's rugged mobility solutions, specifically designed for industries like oil and gas that rely on both field operations and expert knowledge.
One of the most significant challenges in the oil and gas industry is the scarcity of on-site expertise. However, with Getac’s rugged mobile solutions, remote support can fill this gap effectively. Imagine seasoned engineers guiding junior staff through complex operations without leaving the office. Using a Getac mobile office, which includes video conferencing and remote support, experienced experts can mentor field engineers in real-time, providing invaluable training while reducing the need for physical presence.
This not only saves valuable time but also enhances learning opportunities for on-site workers, improving safety and operational efficiency without the added cost of travel.
In any remote support system, connectivity is key. A poorly timed drop in the connection can disrupt the support process, costing precious time. Getac understands this need and has engineered its rugged devices to ensure high-performance connectivity. Whether through 4G LTE or Wi-Fi, Getac devices support real-time video conferencing, screen sharing, and other essential remote support applications.
With mobile SIM support and IEEE 802.11ax Wi-Fi, Getac’s rugged solutions ensure that communication remains clear, even in the most remote locations, so your team receives expert advice and guidance without interruption.
In high-risk industries like oil and gas, safety is paramount. Getac solutions are built with this in mind. With ATEX, ANSI, and IECEx certifications for intrinsic safety, Getac ensures that its devices are safe to use in hazardous environments. These certifications allow workers to safely use their rugged devices without risking sparks or other dangerous situations in explosive areas.
Our rugged tablets and laptops are designed to withstand extreme conditions while keeping your team safe, so they can focus on their tasks with peace of mind.
Outdoor work environments often present challenges, one of the biggest being visibility in strong sunlight. Getac’s LumiBond technology addresses this with sunlight-readable touchscreens. Whether workers are wearing gloves or using a stylus, the enhanced touch control ensures smooth interaction, even in harsh weather conditions. This added visibility makes it easier for workers to access critical data and communicate with remote experts.
Getac’s rugged devices aren’t just built to last; they are built to perform, even under the harshest conditions. With certifications like MIL-STD 810H and IP67, Getac devices can withstand impacts, vibrations, temperature fluctuations, humidity, and drops from up to six feet. These devices are made to thrive in the toughest environments, ensuring fewer breakdowns and longer service lives, which translates to substantial cost savings for your business.
At Rugged.One, we understand the importance of a low total cost of ownership (TCO). That’s why Getac’s devices come with an industry-leading three-year warranty, which includes Bumper to Bumper service, covering accidental damage at no extra cost. Getac’s rugged devices offer one of the lowest failure rates in the industry, making them a smart investment for businesses that require reliability and durability.
It’s not just about rugged hardware; it’s about getting the right tools for the job. At Rugged.One, we collaborate with our partners to offer fully integrated solutions that include mounts, docking stations, barcode readers, and other essential accessories. By offering everything from hardware to security and connectivity software, we ensure your team has everything they need to perform at their best, wherever they are.
