The field instrument segment holds the largest share in the global process automation and instrumentation market. This is largely because drilling rig instruments play a vital role in implementing process control by monitoring elements such as pressure, temperature, flow, torque, and level.

These instruments ensure better plant asset management, enhance safety, and optimize the overall production process. To achieve optimum productivity at sites, these instruments must provide information quickly, securely, and accurately to site operators.

To ensure your field instruments meet all of these requirements, you need to choose a reliable process instrumentation provider. Here’s what you should look for when selecting one:

1. Reliable

Reliability is the first thing you should look for when selecting a supplier. Here are some questions you should ask when evaluating the instrumentation provider:

  • Does the company have experience in designing and manufacturing hydraulic and electronic solutions?
  • What areas does the company serve?
  • Is the company an OEM manufacturer?
  • What range of products do they offer?
  • Does the company offer timely and accurate deliveries?

2. Strong Controls

With process instrumentation, the margin of error is very low. You need to trust that the supplier has strong control over the manufacturing and testing process. Here’s what you should look for:

  • Does the company work with third-party manufacturers?
  • Where is the production facility located?
  • Are there any in-house quality control (QC) mechanisms in place?
  • What quality tests does the company use to ensure accuracy?

3. O&G Expertise

For organizations in the Oil and Gas Industry, we highly recommend choosing instrumentation suppliers with experience in the industry. You should ask:

  • Does the company have experience and expertise in the industry?
  • What innovative instrumentation solutions do they offer to the global drilling and well servicing market?

4. Support Services

Your technicians may require guidance regarding an instrument or need speedy repairs, in which case, you’ll need to avail after-sales support. You should check for the following:

  • Does the company offer service and repairs for damaged instruments?
  • How accessible is their customer support system?
