In a bid to shore up operations with subcontractors in its remote oil fields, a leading oil company has turned to Wireless Matrix (TSX: WRX) to provide GPS location data and communications for an initial 200 subscribers.

Challenged in obtaining real-time GPS data for tracking workers in remote operational areas, the company selected Wireless Matrix for their integrated cellular and Wi-Fi communication platform and real-time data integration with back office systems. Under the terms of the agreement, Wireless Matrix will provide the company with integrated communications via the Communicator 300 device, as well as a data feed to the company's custom dispatching application.

The Communicator 300 will provide integrated GPS location data via cellular and Wi-Fi communications in supported areas. The Communicator 300 also provides the option for field upgradable satellite connectivity via the Wireless Matrix Satellite Data Modem 5000. This multi-mode option further eliminates out-of-coverage areas, allowing location data to be obtained throughout deployment areas.

In addition, the company will benefit from a web services data feed from Wireless Matrix's FleetOutlook vehicle management application. The data feed will seamlessly populate the company's in-house dispatching application with real-time vehicle location and status information.

"The selection of our solution by a major oil company illustrates the value placed on a single communication device capable of cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity, and field-upgradable, should the need for satellite back-up be required." said J. Richard Carlson, Wireless Matrix president and CEO. "Our proven solutions continue to differentiate themselves from the rest of the market in the quality, interoperability and value they offer our customers."
