EnerSys Corporation

EnerSys leverages an in-depth knowledge of pipeline operations, control room procedures, alarm rationalization, SCADA and the latest PHMSA (Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration) 49 CFR regulations, EnerSys has created the ideal solution for small and medium-size operators with limited resources:

POEMS : (Pipeline Operations Excellence Management Systems), a complete solution for small and medium-sized pipeline operators who must comply with PHMSA 49 CFR Parts 192.631 or 195.446 (the CRM rule). A complete implementation of POEMS includes training, facilitation and software tools to operate your pipeline and facilities safely while capturing your operating experience to systematically implement continual improvement for your pipeline control room.

EnerSys started as a control systems integration company providing automation, SCADA and measurement solutions to oil and gas operations. For more than 19 years, EnerSys and its founder Russel Treat, have been well known in the oil and gas industry though our participation in events such as ASGMT, ENTELEC, ISHM, and on API and AGA committees.

In 2007, EnerSys realized that change was coming to pipeline control rooms in the form of a new federal regulatory requirement from the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Pipeline Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) requiring pipeline operators to put formal control room management (CRM) programs in place. Our research into the proposed PHMSA CRM rule lead us to form relationships with experts outside the pipeline industry to learn from their process industry best practices and adapt them to the unique requirements of pipeline operations.
