Automating Compliance Reporting for Oil & Gas Operations

Energy Dynamics Corp., an oil and gas operator with facilities across multiple jurisdictions, faced mounting pressure to maintain compliance with increasingly complex environmental and safety regulations. Manual compliance reporting was consuming hundreds of hours monthly and still resulted in occasional violations.

The company operated legacy SCADA systems that had been in place for 20+ years. While these systems reliably controlled operations, extracting data for compliance reporting required manual intervention, specialized knowledge, and significant time investment.

The Challenge

  • Manual Data Collection. Compliance officers spent 60+ hours per month manually extracting data from SCADA systems, consolidating it with other operational data, and formatting it for regulatory submissions.
  • Risk of Non-Compliance. The manual process was error-prone and time-consuming. Deadlines were frequently missed, and data errors occasionally led to compliance violations and associated fines.
  • Multiple Regulatory Frameworks. Operating across different jurisdictions meant complying with varying regulatory requirements. Each location required different reports with different formats and submission schedules.

The Solution

Plinth API integrated with Energy Dynamics' legacy SCADA systems and modern cloud platforms, automatically extracting operational data and formatting it according to each jurisdiction's requirements. The system generates compliance reports automatically and flags potential issues before they become violations.

Compliance Violations Since Launch

Manual data entry decreased by 80%, freeing compliance officers to focus on strategic initiatives rather than data collection. The company has maintained a 100% on-time submission rate and zero compliance violations since implementing Plinth API. The automated system has integrated 25 different operational systems and now handles compliance reporting across all jurisdictions.

Beyond compliance, the unified data platform has enabled new operational insights. The company can now correlate environmental metrics with operational efficiency, identify optimization opportunities, and demonstrate their commitment to sustainable operations with reliable, auditable data.
