Oil&Gas exploration offshore is costly


Special requirements

51

• Health, Safety and Environment (HSE)

• Safety is #1 issue for offshore operations

• Documentation, processes and auditing

• Corrosive environment

• High level of saline water in the air

• ATEX - Atmosphere with explosive gasses

• Zone 0 - Area in which an explosive gas-air mixture is continuously

present or present for long periods.

• Zone 1 - Combustible or conductive dusts are present. Area in which an

explosive gas-air mixture is likely to occur for short periods in normal

operation.

• Zone 2 - Area in which an explosive gas-air mixture is not likely to occur,

and if it occurs it will only exist for a very short time due to an abnormal

condition.

Norway - The Longest Offshore Link in the World

Background

• All infrastructure in the Yme-field was earlier

removed, but technology advancement made

possible the reopening of operations

The Challenge

• Customize a MW solution from the long

distance requirement with the on-shore needed

ellevation

• Submitting fiber to a single platform a too

expensive alternative

• Satelite communication too low bandwidth for

this project (appx. $40K per 4 Mbps)

The Solution

• 4 x 32Mb/s with bandwidth aggregating giving

128Mb/s (due to too much diffraction loss)

• ATEX EExP Zone 2 PointLinks (2.0m)

• Quadruple Space Diversity for maximum

redundancy

Utilities



Defining the Smart Utility Grid

Current State

• Centralized

• Inefficient

• Opaque

Smart Grid

• Flexible

• Accessible

• Reliable

• Economic


Consumers Management

60

• Smart meters send information on real-time consumption to the

utility’s billing system

• Reducing manpower

• Differential billing

• Real-time demand response

• Control of heavy-load appliances


• Low capacity (at collection points)

• Relaxed latency and availability requirements

How much should I produce right now??


Power Delivery Management

61

• Substation automation is the use of IEDs and controllers to get real-

time feedback on the state of components in the substation and to

control them remotely via SCADA interfaces.

• Teleprotection is the use of intelligent relays to monitor flow of

electricity in transmission lines. It rapidly isolates faulty parts of the

transmission network in order to prevent widespread blackouts.


• Relaxed capacity requirements

• Mission critical availability

• Low latency, symmetrical and constant (4-10 msec)


Mobile Workforce Management

62

• Until Recently: Narrowband voice communications (LMR)

• Need broadband connectivity

• Present: Commercial 3G/4G networks

• But they are not mission-critical, meaning service is not secure and not assured

• Future: A mission-critical broadband network

• Some states already include utilities in their public safety networks…


• High Capacity, high availability, low latency, secure

LMR

Commercial 3G/4G

Mission-Critical Broadband Network


Security/ Video Surveillance

63

• Power utilities are critical infrastructure

• Easy targets for terrorism, crime, vandalism

• Remote rural locations / embedded in residential neighborhoods

• Real-time surveillance is required

• Video, sensors, patrols, analytics


• High capacity, low latency (video)

ISP Business services considerations

Large Business customers (Retail and Wholesale) demand “carrier-grade” support

• “High End” services they buy are complex and mission critical

• Large Business customers have high support expectations. service providers must

be able to correlate:

• “What is broken?” (Fault Management) with “Who is impacted and where are they located?”

• “How is service performing?” (Performance Management) with “Who does service belong to

and where are they located?”

• SLAs have financial penalties and Large Business customers continue to demand

more


Business Services Requirements

Source: Heavy Reading, Global Ethernet service provider survey (157 participants)

• High service

availability/resiliency Ring and linear protection schemes

allow replacing highly resilient legacy

networks

• Robust service

management/OAM: Managing the service through its entire

life cycle, end-to-end control to fault

detection and recovery

• End-to-end

SLA/QoS: End-to-end SLA from customer

premises with traffic prioritization, BW

profiling, end-to-end monitoring of the

service parameters. Differentiation

between “best-effort” customers and

premium customers
