RTS is a pioneer company in the oil fields sector; Its objective is to extend the life of the equipment by guaranteeing its integrity and that of the oil wells. When obtaining the pipeline from the oil wells, reconditioning those that are in optimal condition for reuse and full use when they are installed again, it is necessary to obtain information from them for their maintenance and long-term study.
It is here where the analysis of information and technological innovation acquire an intrinsic value, translating into greater agility in decision-making and optimization of resources and processes.
The project went beyond both teams’ expectations, which resulted in the creation of technology and innovation through collaboration and the timely work of the people involved.
In its beginnings, RTS found itself in a situation where:
The greatest challenge was to transform inventories technologically, since by not having automations and new technologies, their operation lacked transparency and visibility in real time.
Restructure the existing application or design a new one? A total change would be the key to success.
It was clear that resources were being wasted, operating errors were on the rise, and maintenance costs were high and unnecessary. High-performance, scalable software was needed with the ability to change and adapt to the complexity of operations, inside and outside of RTS.Taking a basic system and transforming it into technological innovation that would allow RTS to go to the next level was not easy.
A series of tactics and strategies consisted of:
By replacing the existing application with a new interface, the implementation of the software developed by Icalia Labs was a long, difficult and painful process, where the main challenges were the following:
It consisted of an exhaustive analysis of the needs of RTS, to determine that a total redesign of the application was needed, adding added values such as process improvement and a good user experience.
In addition to obtaining a fully functional inventory, Well Data was added as part of the functionalities of the new software. This technology is distinguished because it works in tandem with the new inventory, in addition to offering a visualization of the state of the oil wells and the process.
How to do it without stopping or affecting the existing operation? The answer was to carry out the Microservices, which determined the best way to implement the new software through carefully planned actions.
One of the most important functionalities for RTS, that was added to the platform with which it is possible to modify and synchronize inventories, even without Internet access, generating great cost savings and unprecedented human capital.

The creation of this software translates into a learning process in RTS and Icalia Labs, where technology continues to be the answer if what is desired is to increase the value of the business and position itself in the market.
