We manage communications projects from the conceptual phase through to completion. This includes handling lease agreements for tower installations, government documentation, piling and form construction, supplying of all communication equipment, tower erection, frequency licensing, communication system installation and testing.
Sinopec Daylight Energy
Sinopec Daylight Energy changed their custody transfer agreements with the gas plants in the Elmworth and South Wapiti gas fields and required SCADA communication systems. Vincent Communications set up a communication network by obtaining two new UHF SCADA licensed frequencies, installing two 150 foot CSA engineered repeater towers, changing communications for 50 wells and setting up a high speed 10MBps Up/Down network link. We also surveyed the land for the tower site and facilitated the leasing of the land. We obtained licenses for the well sites with Industry Canada and tower construction approval from NAV Canada and Transport Canada.

Lone Pine Resources
Lone Pine Resources required a communication network in their Red Earth field to view, operate and optimize well site production from their Field and Calgary offices. They also needed VHF (2-way voice radio) communications for their Red Earth field operations. Vincent Communications planned and installed the communications network which included installing a 150 foot tower at the Lone Pine Camp, obtaining new VHF and UHF (SCADA to SAM) frequencies and licensing 60+ wells. We also installed phone lines and a cell booster to improve cell service for the camp and surrounding area.

CNRL
CNRL purchased facilities and wells in the Hamburg-Chinchaga area from several companies. Vincent Communications helped to integrate the SCADA communications from four different systems into one network. We also updated the radios, associated communications equipment and their configuration to drastically improve response times for 80 wells. We also worked with Industry Canada to update and correct the VHF and UHF licensing.

ConocoPhillips Canada
ConocoPhillips Canada wanted to perform plunger lift optimization on their well sites in the South Wapiti field. Vincent Communications assisted with the power and RTU upgrades. We used our man basket/picker truck to replace solar panels and RTU cabinets for over 100 wells. We installed the radios in the new cabinets, verified communications and completed a communication report for each well site.
