Disruptive technologies set off a new industrial revolution:
• The Internet of Things• Big Data• The Cloud• Mobility• Social Technologies
Disruption
The unprecedented increase in data is changing everything
• Major companies are leading in the “ongoing digitization and ‘data-fication’ of industry”
Source: “An Internet to Call Our Own,” Smart Industry Magazine
The ‘Data-fication’ of Industry
• Aging infrastructure and equipment creating obsolescence
• Global competition forcing co.’s to lower costs and increase profitability
• Price of oil pushing even more on lowering operating costs
• Tech trends (IIoT, Cloud services, wireless technology & mobility) driving the process industries to embrace change
• The status quo with expensive DCS upgrades no longer viable
• Other industries have an open, standards-based, secure & interoperable control system. Why not in oil and gas?

Recent developments at ExxonMobil:
• Challenging traditional automation technologies and practices to significantly shorten project cycle times and lower capital investments
• Asking automation suppliers to be innovative and not just make incremental improvements

ExxonMobil’s Push for Innovation
In the IIoT era, more companies are moving toward platforms:
• Editor-in-chief of Automation World writes: “a confluence of trends that appear to indicate a move by both automation suppliers and end users toward an automation platform approach … a move away from the long-held practice of buying discrete devices, software and/or systems for specific operations goals”
• Prediction from ARC Advisory Group: “Suppliers of all kinds will tout the power of their ‘platform’ in 2016”
The Rise of ‘Platforms’
OT-IT Convergence
Information Technology (IT):
• Software, hardware, telecomm & other services for processing and transmitting info, facilitating communication, and generating data for enterprise use
• Used mainly at management level
• Built from the top down
• Personnel adept at SQL databases, Java, etc.
Operational Technology (OT):
• Used for machinery and otherphysical equipment, monitoring and control systems, etc.
• Used on the plant floor
• Built from the ground up
• Personnel adept at PLCs, HMI/SCADA systems, etc.
Comparing IT and OT
Two Separate Worlds …
“IT worked from the top down, deploying and maintaining data-driven infrastructure largely to the management side of business. OT built from the ground up, starting with machinery, equipment, and assets and moving up to monitoring and control systems. For a long time, these two divisions kept to their own turf and found their own effective solutions to problems …”
Two Worlds Collide
… Until Something BIG Happened:
“Then came smart machines, Big Data, and the Industrial Internet, and the worlds of IT and OT suddenly collided.”- GE.com, “Converge and Conquer”
Two Worlds Collide
Definition of IT-OT Integration:
"IT/OT integration is the end state sought by organizations (most commonly, asset-intensive organizations) where instead of a separation of IT and OT as technology areas with different areas of authority and responsibility, there is integrated process and information flow.”
– Gartner
OT-IT Integration
Benefits of OT-IT integration:
• More information for the enterprise (better decisions, more field device data, OT data benefits business applications)
• Reduced costs • Lower risks• Optimized business processes• Faster development and integration • Standardized communications and control
OT-IT Integration
• Message-Oriented Middleware (MOM) technologies allow for decoupling of device protocols from applications
• MOM provides for more efficient information distribution, increased scalability, and much shorter development times
• Publish/Subscribe replaces traditional polling methods
• Data goes into infrastructure and not directly into applications
One that Decouples Device Protocols from Applications:
A Different Data Architecture
Ignition bridges the gap between the enterprise and the plant floor by converging OT & IT.
Ignition IIoT
• While a number of different communication protocols are currently in use, the Message Queueing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) transfer protocol is quickly emerging as the standard for IIoT
Which Protocol to Use?
MQTT Protocol for IIoT
Publish/Subscribe:
• Edge-of-network devices publish to MQTT server on- or off-premise
• Easily push data from thousands of devices to a central location where industrial & business applications access it
Super-Efficient Data Pipeline
Inductive AutomationUniversal industrial applications platform: open, standards-based, cross-platform, database-centric with unlimited connectivity.
Streamline GroupOverarching architecture and migration approach to solve business problems and leverage newer technologies.

Discussion Topic: Implementation at Major Midstream Company
Panel Discussion
Objectives – Implement middleware in the process control environment to:
• Increase access to data from the field devices, without impacting control systems
• Create a process control data hub • Risk management – “de-risk” the business• Manage technology and prepare for future growth• Save money on licensing and software upgrades (~30%)• Improve network performance (expect 85% from some sites)• Improve leak detection sensitivity
Panel Discussion
Benefits achieved:
• Efficiency and business performance• Technology evolved• Cost savings• Increased opportunity to innovate• Data management• Improved security
