VANCOUVER, July 22, 2019 /CNW/ - Universal mCloud
Corp. (TSX-V: MCLD) (OTCQB: MCLDF) ("mCloud" or the
"Company"), a leading provider of asset management solutions
combining IoT, cloud computing, artificial intelligence ("AI") and
analytics, today announced its first deliveries of AssetCare™️
solutions to Oil & Gas customers on the back of recently
completing its acquisition of Autopro Automation Consultants
("Autopro") on July 11, 2019.
"The early customer response we have received around AssetCare
for Smart Oil & Gas has been tremendous," said Dr. Barry Po, mCloud's Chief Product Officer. "As
part of our efforts to bring the mCloud and Autopro teams together,
the plans for rolling out AssetCare to customers have been in the
works since the acquisition was originally announced. The fact we
are seeing immediate traction with customers is a clear signal that
AssetCare is in the right place at the right time in the oil and
gas industry."
The first mCloud application for Smart Oil and Gas is a remote
management capability based on technology originally developed at
Autopro for client support services. Now part of mCloud's AssetCare
platform, mCloud and Autopro recently onboarded this capability at
six oil and gas facilities in Alberta,
Canada using the AssetCare Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS")
model with annual contracted recurring revenues totalling
C$1 million across these
facilities.
In addition to the six facilities just connected, mCloud has
access to a target market, which according to data from the Canadia
n Energy Research Institute, consists of more than 700 midstream
oil and gas facilities across Alberta and northern British Columbia that are positioned to
benefit from these remote management capabilities. As the Company
expands its operations internationally, mCloud expects to reach
over 14,000 similar facilities in oil and gas centres
worldwide.
Remote management via AssetCare connects assets at upstream,
midstream, and downstream oil and gas facilities, providing field
operators with predictive maintenance capabilities that enable
operators to get ahead of potential issues before they become
serious, maximizing asset uptime and availability. AssetCare also
enables access to analytics in a single view that link facility
data with control system data, empowering asset managers to
remotely diagnose and take corrective action without needing to be
onsite.
The Company has numerous other AssetCare applications for Smart
Oil and Gas in the works, and these will be unveiled later this
year.
