In the 143rd episode of the IoT Use Case Podcast, Madeleine Mickeleit speaks with Julian Studer, CEO and founder of LORIOT, and Philipp Lausberger, IIoT application specialist at WIKA. The focus is on the use of innovative LoRaWAN technologies in the oil and gas industry, which contribute to remote monitoring and process optimization. Together, they discuss specific use cases and highlight the synergies between the hardware and software solutions of both companies, providing an almost complete IoT solution for their customers.

Podcast episode summary

This podcast episode explores the diverse applications of LPWAN technologies, particularly in the oil and gas industry. The guests explain how these technologies contribute to increased efficiency in process monitoring, such as monitoring valve positions and vibrations. Through the digitization and remote monitoring of equipment in challenging environments like desert regions, companies can not only achieve significant cost savings but also enhance safety. LORIOT provides the communication infrastructure, while WIKA supplies the appropriate sensors to enable a comprehensive IoT solution.

A key topic of discussion is the challenge of integrating various sensors, APIs, and communication protocols like LoRaWAN and mioty. Additionally, they discuss how these technologies are scalable to efficiently manage large industrial networks. A particular use case is the monitoring of pressure values at oil wells to ensure equipment integrity and avoid costly failures.

Furthermore, they explain how these technologies can be applied to other industries, such as geothermal energy, food, and pharmaceuticals. Finally, the guests provide a preview of upcoming trade shows, such as the SPS in Nuremberg and ADIPEC in the Middle East, where interested parties can gain further insights into their work.
