Time: 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. (lunch provided)

TELUS Business Solutions, Energy Vertical, BJ Services Company Canada and PTAC Petroleum Technology Alliance Canada, invite you and representatives from your organization to attend an information session on how new Automated Vehicle Location (AVL), Global Positioning System (GPS) and communications technologies for Mobile Resource Management (MRM) can improve worker safety and productivity for producers and oilfield service companies.

BACKGROUND
The petroleum industry is challenged with finding new ways to work efficiently and effectively to manage and track their assets. Field operators, drillers, contractors, drivers and managers are all faced with following standards set by federal and provincial legislation and internal safety departments.

Jim Huff, a Director and a founding member of TELUS Geomatics Business Unit, part of the TELUS' National Applications team within TELUS Business Solutions, will address wireless Mobile Resource Management - commonly known as GPS fleet tracking - as it relates to small, medium, and large service companies within the petroleum industry.

BENEFITS
Oilfield service companies currently employing GPS technology receive measurable benefits, especially in the areas of transportation efficiency, field worker safety, and dispatching and scheduling. Business benefits include a short return on investment cycle time, the ability to monitor driver behaviour, location event tracking and the ability to monitor federal and provincial legislation compliance.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This session is for Fleet and OH&S managers in the oil and gas industry, including producers and oilfield service companies, who need to manage a fleet of vehicles, ensure safety of workers, meet compliance demands and improve field efficiencies.
