Why You Should Care about the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in Your Refinery
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is playing a growing role in how refineries operate. Due to the falling cost of connectivity and data storage, processes across the entire Oil & Gas value chain are now able to gather more data from more devices, assets, operations and processes than ever before. Refiners, in particular, stand to quickly gain value because their existing IT infrastructure is more mature compared to extraction (upstream) and distribution (midstream) processes.
