CellTeks Brings cellular to oil & gas

January 18th, 2021

Alliance Corporation is proud to be a Value-Added Distributor for Cel-Fi by Nextivity products in North America. This is a repost from a Cel-Fi by Nextivity Case Study.

The Integrator – CellTeks

CellTeks is a premier cellular solutions provider for wireless users. They are recognized experts for tower-based, in-building, and mobile cellular solutions for both urban and rural applications across Texas and New Mexico.

Challenge

CellTeks was asked to develop a solution that will allow gatekeepers at oil drilling sites to communicate wirelessly via tablets. The Gatekeepers maintain a log of every oil tank rig and driver that enter and exit the oil field. They needed data connectivity to transmit this information to their main office, which was hundreds of miles away. Most of the ranch properties are in low-lying areas with little to no line of-sight to cell towers. CellTeks has seen their fair share of unique situations that require resourceful thinking, particularly when it applies to remote or temporary applications.

The Solution

Since 2013, Cel-Fi Smart Signal Boosters have become an integral part of CellTeks’ solution portfolio. To capture a donor signal from the closest cellular tower, the Cell Teks team installed Cel-Fi in one of the enclosures mounted on the telescopic booms used by the oil drilling company to provide power and lighting at guard trailers.

Results

We have found that as we become more proficient, Cel-Fi aligns well with our vision and business model,” continues Executive. As a result, CellTeks continues to experience increasing demand for Cel-Fi solutions.
