We know that pipeline controllers must process a lot of information – managing SCADA systems, monitoring pipeline conditions, and using multiple tools to do so. In talking with operators, we know that controller fatigue is a real concern. We understand that too many false alarms degrade confidence in the system and contribute to that fatigue. We strive to provide the right information at the right time in a way that is easy to navigate and understand.
