Product Overview

The WITS Level 0 Active driver is used for the transfer wellsite data from one computer system (such as a Measurement While Drilling [MRD] device) to HMI, SCADA, and OPC client applications. Exploration and production service and operating companies are able to monitor real-time data like compass direction, borehole pressure, temperature, vibration, shock, torque, and more.
