Emerson has announced the purchase of Zedi’s software and automation businesses. The addition of Zedi’s cloud supervisory control and data acquisition (scada) platform will further enable Emerson to help oil and gas producers increase production and lower operating costs through cloud-based monitoring, control and optimisation.
Zedi’s technology currently enables customers to monitor more than 2 million sensors and thousands of devices and applications. By combining its scalable cloud platform and applications expertise with Emerson’s extensive applications, controller, instrumentation and flow metering portfolio, this acquisition expands opportunities across the global oil and gas production market.
The combined software and expertise of the two companies will provide producers with scalable end-to-end solutions designed to optimise and manage their operations. Zedi’s software and automation businesses are based in Calgary, Canada, with approximately 155 employees in North America.
