Code Blue on the Water
Extreme temperatures, combustible gases and heavy machinery all contribute to the hazardous conditions oil rig workers experience. Unfortunately, the countless opportunities for accidents and injury aren’t the worst of their problems. A rig worker’s “office” consists of an isolated body of water miles away from medical assistance making the response time to an accident absolutely critical. A medical center brought this concern to InfiniEDGE, and after putting their inventive minds together, InfiniEDGE came through with an impressive solution to this dangerously serious problem.
InfiniEDGE built a customized tracking application that allowed off-shore rigs the ability to track medical facilities and their distances using a global positioning system. When accidents and illnesses occur, this software quickly and effortlessly gives attendees the name, location and distance of the closest medical facility without wasting valuable time. Because the rigs are constantly relocating, InfiniEDGE included in the new system the ability to track and update locations of hospitals according to the rig’s current whereabouts. Through the work for this client, InfiniEDGE proved that no dilemma is too difficult by embracing the idea that the more critical the problem, the more creative the solution.
