Technology That Keeps Field Sites Running And Pipelines Talking
Most Dallas-Fort Worth oil and gas operators do not staff a dedicated IT department for every yard, pad, and control room, so the operations manager, a field superintendent, or whichever engineer understands networks ends up absorbing the work between production targets, pipeline integrity reviews, and whatever the TSA or state regulator is asking for this quarter. We bring the secure tooling, documented workflows, and local technicians your operation needs without growing the overhead. SCADA stays visible to the control room, pads and compressor stations stay reachable over the links that work in the field, and corporate networks stay clean enough that a bad email in the office never becomes a bad day on the line.

“Jason and his team have been great to work with! We utilized their services for an email migration from one platform/account to a new one, and it could not have gone smoother. Jason was always available and accessible to answer all questions throughout the process. I still reach out to him from time to time for ongoing support, and he continues to be a huge help. 5/5 stars for sure!”

How We Support Oil And Gas Companies
Energy operations need IT that respects the realities of the field, the weight of an unplanned shutdown, and the line between a corporate laptop and a programmable logic controller. Our approach holds four lines: field-site connectivity that does not drop, hands-on human response, a disciplined IT-OT boundary, and workflows that match how producers, pipeliners, and service companies actually run a day.
Field-Site Connectivity That Holds
We engineer SD-WAN, cellular, and satellite paths that fail over without a truck roll, so the production dashboards, cameras, and alarms keep reporting from the far end of the lease.
Direct Operations Response
You can trust that a technician will answer within sixty seconds, every time. They knows your SCADA vendor, your historian, and the rest of your company's specific IT needs.
IT-OT Boundary Held By Default
A control network is not a guest Wi-Fi. Every layer (firewalls, jump hosts, remote vendor access, endpoints, backups) ships segmented by default, so a phishing click in accounting never reaches a PLC and a field laptop never wanders into a corporate share without going through the gate.
Shaped By How You Operate
Our configurations match how operators, pipeliners, and field service companies actually run, not how generic templates assume. Rig-trailer deployments, tank-farm cameras, lone-worker check-ins, and turnaround documentation all align with the rhythm of a real oil and gas outfit.
A Single Blind Spot In The Field Gets Expensive, Fast
A compressor station that loses its SCADA link, an engineer with the wrong remote-access path, or a VPN that nobody tested since the last turnaround, and any one of them can stop production, stall a pigging run, or leave a regulator with questions you do not want to answer.
You can't afford to have anything less than an entrirely dependable IT management and support arrangement. We step into that gap with a team, a toolset, and accountability, so the operation stops hoping the link and the controls are safe and starts knowing.
IT Services Backed By Oil & Gas Experience and Expertise
We meet the operation where it actually is today, a lean producer running twenty pads with two office staff or a midstream company operating stations across three basins, and shape the service to how your field, office, and control rooms really talk to each other. No enterprise overhead pretending you are a supermajor, no break-fix chaos masquerading as a managed service. When you acquire a new lease, spin up a salt-water disposal facility, or bring a new station online, we handle everything IT-related. The asset base grows, the IT grows with it, and operators keep their attention on production instead of pulling cables.
Cybersecurity Services
IT-OT-Aware Protection For Every Pad, Station, And Control Room
Oil and gas operators sit on every major threat-actor target list, from commodity ransomware crews to state-backed groups looking for pipeline leverage. A successful intrusion does not just cost data. It can shut in production, trip a safety instrumented system, or put a TSA directive in front of the executive team. Our cybersecurity service stacks email authentication, advanced phishing defense, endpoint detection and response, multi-factor everywhere, vendor-access governance, and network segmentation between IT and OT, all aligned with NIST CSF, IEC 62443 zones and conduits, and the TSA Pipeline Security Directives.
Network segmentation and jump-host access that keeps corporate traffic out of OT.
Endpoint detection and response on every workstation, laptop, server, and HMI.
Quarterly phishing simulations and operator training tuned to energy-sector threats.
Managed IT Services
A Full IT Department Without Growing Overhead In Fort Worth
Most energy operators juggle a break-fix vendor, an ops manager who inherited the passwords, and whichever field hand happens to understand radios, and the cracks show the first time a compressor loses its backhaul or a historian falls behind. We replace that patchwork with a single managed service covering tickets, monitoring, patching, backups, remote-site connectivity management, and Microsoft 365 administration, billed per user per month, so the operation finally has one IT number that does not surprise the CFO at quarter close.
Flat per-user pricing that stays steady as offices, yards, and field sites are added.
One accountable team covering tickets, patches, backups, and new-site onboarding.
Proactive maintenance so turnarounds and pigging runs are not the first test.
Incident Response Planning
A Written Plan For Ransomware, Outage, And Regulator Scrutiny
When a pad goes dark, a control network alarms on an unknown host, or a ransomware note lands on the office file server, the first hour decides whether the operation contains the event or explains it to a regulator and an insurer. We build an energy-specific incident response plan covering ransomware, OT intrusion, fraudulent vendor wire attempts, lost field devices, and satellite-link failures, then tabletop-test it with your ops leadership, field supervisors, and control-room staff. When the TSA, a pipeline operator customer, or a cyber insurer asks how the operation would respond, the playbook, the contacts, and the decision rights are already locked in.
Playbooks covering ransomware, OT intrusion, lost devices, and link failures.
Tabletop exercises so ops, control room, and leadership know their role in advance.
Notification templates aligned with TSA, state, and customer reporting timelines.
Why Energy Companies Stay With Us
Dallas-Fort Worth has no shortage of IT companies chasing oil and gas logos. We have been at this for two decades because we quietly deliver the work that matters when a compressor station drops its backhaul, a control-room workstation locks up during a shift change, or a field engineer's laptop will not authenticate fifteen minutes before a scheduled test.
Fluent In Field And Control-Room Tech
Our technicians know their way around the gear operators actually run on: SCADA, historians, HMIs, radio links, cellular gateways, satellite terminals, and the edge appliances that stitch them together. No one learns your field on the clock during a production incident.
Operations-Level Response
When a superintendent calls because a station is off the network, the reply is not a ticket number. A real technician picks up, owns the problem, and stays with it until the link is back, the alarms are clearing, and the ops manager can walk away from the phone.
IT-OT Segmented By Default
Jump hosts, segmented firewalls, vendor-access logging, and least-privilege OT accounts come standard, not as extras added later. The controls that stop a corporate incident from reaching a control network are running by default instead of waiting on someone to turn them on.
Transparent Field-Wide Pricing
Your IT line on the operation's P&L stays flat and easy to defend. Managed service sits on a simple per-user, per-site figure, and the typical surprises (after-hours call-outs, emergency replacements, new-station build weekends) stay inside the same monthly number.
FAQs About Our IT Support For Oil And Gas Companies
How do you keep SCADA and field sites connected in rough country?
Resilient connectivity is engineered in, not hoped for. We combine SD-WAN with cellular and satellite paths so a single tower outage or fiber cut does not take a station off the board. Edge devices are hardened for heat, dust, and vibration, failover is tested on a schedule instead of in the moment, and every site ships with documented IP plans, radio settings, and out-of-band access so the operations team can reach a remote asset even when the primary link is down.
How do you keep a corporate breach from reaching our control network?
The IT-OT boundary is the whole point. Corporate and control networks live on separate firewalls with explicit conduits, remote vendors pass through jump hosts with recorded sessions, OT endpoints run their own detection stack, and patch cycles respect the turnaround calendar instead of fighting it. When a phishing click lands in the office, the damage stops at the corporate side because the segmentation was there before the attacker.
Can you align our controls with NIST, iec 62443, and TSA directives?
Yes. The service is built around NIST CSF, IEC 62443 zones and conduits, and the current TSA Pipeline Security Directives, not bolted onto a generic SMB template. We document administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, maintain an asset and vendor inventory for both IT and OT, and hand the operation an exam-ready binder when a pipeline customer, a state inspector, or a cyber insurer asks. Your ops and compliance leads stop assembling evidence from scratch every review.
What happens if ransomware hits our office during an active pigging run?
Encrypted off-site backups refresh continuously and are tested monthly, so the operation can restore corporate systems, email, and critical shares without paying a ransom. Because IT and OT are already segmented, the control network keeps running the pigging run, the pad, and the station while the office side is recovered. The written incident response plan moves the operation through notification, forensics, and return-to-service while keeping the TSA, the state regulator, customers, and the insurer informed on the right timeline.
