We Have RFID Tags for Surface & Downhole Oilfield Equipment

Both Thick & Thin Walled Components

Just Say ‘NO’ to Viruses on RFID Tags

NO VIRUS

• We have a secure ‘read’ algorithm

• Our system can perform check-sum confirmation of a valid tag read

• We use special tag’s and frequencies appropriate for downhole equipment rather then mass-market retail

• Our tags only carry an identifier: data is in the database

- AND Finally-

• Our Tags are READ-ONLY
