A tank battery is where oil, water, and gas separate and stage before sale - and where overflows, theft, and missed run tickets cost real money. Watching them by driving pumper rounds leaves hours-long blind spots. Cloud SCADA closes that gap: every tank level, on one dashboard, with alarms that reach a phone in seconds.
Tank battery monitoring software reads level, pressure, and flow from every tank and separator at a battery and streams it to a cloud dashboard, with sub-30-second alerts for high level, overflow risk, and abnormal drawdown - so you catch problems before they become spills or lost volume.
The core measurements are tank levels (oil and water), separator pressure, and flow. From those you get the things that matter operationally: how full each tank is (and when it needs a haul), whether a tank is climbing toward overflow, and whether an unexpected drop suggests a leak or theft. Level is typically read by a gauge or transmitter into an RTU or PLC, which Merobix reads over Modbus or DNP3.
The value of monitoring is speed. A high-level alarm delivered by SMS in under 30 seconds gives an operator time to divert or dispatch before a tank overflows and triggers a spill report and cleanup. An unexpected level drop outside a scheduled haul flags possible theft or a leak immediately, rather than at the next round. Merobix delivers those alarms on every plan, with escalation so the right person is reached day or night.
A level gauge or transmitter on each tank feeds an RTU or PLC, which a cloud SCADA platform reads over cellular. Levels, pressures, and flow appear on a dashboard, and alarms fire on high level, overflow risk, or abnormal drawdown. Merobix reads Modbus and DNP3 tank devices this way.
Yes. A high-level threshold triggers a sub-30-second SMS and email alarm, with escalation, giving time to divert flow or dispatch before an overflow and spill report. This is included on every Merobix plan.
It can flag it. An unexpected level drop outside a scheduled haul is alarmed immediately, so possible theft or a leak is caught in seconds rather than at the next pumper round.
No. A cellular gateway reads the tank devices and connects outbound to the cloud - no fixed IP, VPN, or on-premise server. Merobix is a managed cloud platform, live in days.
