 Provided the most efficient routes for crews to service only the oil wells in the most need

Client

Oil & Gas Company,

Houston, Texas

An oil and gas company managed over 100 oil well sites, in various conditions, with just four crews per field office to service them. The company needed a way to find the top-priority wells along with the best driving route for the crew to take to multiple sites each day.

 Tessellations adapted the company’s oil well data and created an algorithm that assigned priorities depending on well condition. After finding the wells most in need of inspection, Tessellations calculated the most efficient over-the-road routes based on distance, time, and fuel consumption for the crews to visit each day.
