Channels
Virtually all electronic and electro-
mechanical products are being
designed to automatically transmit
information about status,
performance and usage and can
interact with people and other
devices in real-time.
Connectivity of
Things & People
Broader reach and range of
dependable wireless networks will
drive significant new applications
value from improved reliability,
quality and data rates.
Availability of new managed
services based on data
aggregation, management and
analytics capabilities.
Ability to sense and respond in real time will drive more
adaptive capabilities. Significant growth for asset management,
location tracking services, security, and supply chain
integration based on interactions among devices, mobile
workers and systems management.

OEM Adoption
Traditionally, connectivity has been “bolted
on” to remote devices
Technology capabilities and lower costs are
driving wide range of OEMs to embed and
integrate network-based capabilities
Cost
Comms technology rapidly dropping in
price – volumes beginning to drive scale
Cost and complexity of enablement still
requires skilled system implementation
activity but getting easier
Security
Highly secure requirements
Better defined and improved security
standards
Newer generation of tools allowing for
more device-centric offerings
Carrier Endorsement
Carriers are increasingly focusing on M2M
opportunity, with dedicated sales teams
and appropriate compensation plans
Data is providing very meaningful revenue
and profit growth for Carriers
Traditional telephony becoming saturated
Applications
Consumer applications positively
impacting B2B and related adoption (e.g.
smartphone, tablets/readers, etc.)
Broad growth forecast for Asset
Management, Security, Energy, Supply
Chain & Logistics, and Customer
Support
Regulatory
Rapidly advancing policy initiatives in
Public Safety, Utilities, Healthcare
Growing adoption/interest in Resources,

Offshore
Networks Perspective:
Provide real time data from extraction
and drilling equipment and related
systems, transport systems and
refineries to enterprise systems
continues to be the critical
requirement:
• Real time asset information needs
to be widely available across the
corporate environment
• Real time information also needs to
be provided to other applications
and interacted with across vendors
and service providers
• Ownership of the data will be critical
dimension in evolution of systems
Challenges
• Systems need to be resilient
• Standard open communications schemes are relatively new to the industry
• New ways of working for industry participants, support providers and systems vendors
• Often need to work in parallel with data feeds to the service company systems
• Assets such as drilling rigs may not be company owned – security challenges in many
locations and practices
• Need for robust interactions will tend to conflict with security and ownership challenges

Device Life Cycle
& Longevity
Designing systems for very long operational lives – not just physically but also for communications and
information architecture will be key
Device Accessibility
& Update Frequency
Many devices will be physically inaccessible – embedded into products, building and infrastructure and not designed
for human interaction and will require infrequent updates
Always On
Never Off
Many “always-on” applications will have to deal with live updates, no down-time and still function in very small
memory footprints
Security &
Mission Criticality
Mission critical devices will bring their own unique set of requirements – guaranteed availability, high security and
immunity from updates being an attack source
Open Systems
& Interoperability
Inter-operability between different vendors processors / microcontrollers & their operating systems will be extremely
important – systems need to provide services to each other even when the underlying compute platforms are vastly different
Evolving Requirements
IBM Oil & Gas Seminar
December 2013
While Many New Info Tools Are Being Adopted, Few Address Real
Needs…
Maintenance, because of its ad-hoc nature, is one
of the last functions to be networked and
automated:
• Maintenance, while important, has been a
“second class citizen” from an investment and
skills development standpoint
• Virtually all the adjacent technologies that have
developed in and around the maintenance
function have not provided significant benefits to
maintenance personnel
• Existing systems are not well integrated and the
information they accumulate cannot be easily
accessed across differing application systems
• Customers are better understanding of the value
of “remote” services largely due to the growing
presence of adjacent technologies such as cloud
computing
