If your production machines could talk, what would they tell you? Would they be annoying and over-dramatic with their problems, or would they be pretty chill, and just tell us what we need to know. I don't think anyone needs, or wants drama from their production machines (or anyone else for that matter). I think a simple "compressor unit 3 in location10, needs bearing size X replaced within the next two days" would be good. No chit-chat about your vacation plans or how your BBQ turned out last weekend; none of that; just straight to the point and clearly tell us what they need and when they need it by would be great.

Have you seen the dashboards on today’s cars? The information they give you is amazing—you can almost get where you’re going by watching the dashboard alone.

Zedi’s Roughneck™ software is a lot like that. It tells you the location of equipment like compressors, pumpjacks and other onsite equipment, along with pipeline inventory, preventative maintenance programs and more, so that’s what’s around you. It also lets you track moves of that equipment so your information stays current.

When it comes to achieving optimal production, it's common to focus your attention on the stuff coming out of the ground, and how to achieve every efficiency around the extraction side of your business. While production optimization at the wellhead is a key component to operational efficiency, it's easy to forget the role preventative maintenance plays toward achieving the same goal. If you're not regularly and properly maintaining the equipment you rely on throughout your operation, your overall expenses can overwhelm the profitability of a well or your operation.
