AGSL gets Golden Eagle contract

March 13, 2015

Aberdeen-based Nexen Petroleum awarded Asset Guardian Solutions Ltd. (AGSL) a contract to provide solutions software for the Golden Eagle project offshore the UK North Sea.

AGSL will provide the software management tool, Asset Guardian, in addition to its AGSync software.

AGSL says that its Asset Guardian software helps to secure the integrity and improve management of the process control software. It offers a multifaceted, single point solution to manage all requirements associated with process control software systems that is used to operate key oil and gas assets. Amongst its wide range of capabilities, Asset Guardian provides configuration change management, software version control, disaster recovery and a secure repository for storing software files and data.

Using Asset Guardian to centralize the management of process control software ensures that authorized personnel, onshore and offshore, have access to the same information.  This helps to improve workflow and cut the time it takes to locate files and data, greatly reducing the negative - and costly - impact of unplanned shutdowns caused by software failure.

As part of the project, AGSL is also providing AGSync software, which allows data and files to be seamlessly synchronized between multiple onshore and offshore locations.

“We are extremely pleased to have been awarded this contract for such a prestigious North Sea development. Installation of Asset Guardian and AG Sync is well underway,” said Sam Mackay, AGSL managing director. “The Asset Guardian solution enhances the management of the process control software used to operate this key development.”
