The SmartPTT-based radio communications system provides an operational link between a dispatcher and staff performing current maintenance on pipelines and performing jobs of an increased danger level.

• Communication with each part of the pipeline being maintained involving all personnel.
• Timely notification of all interested parties of emergency situations by voice and text messages, both on subscriber terminals on the conventional radio network and personal devices of the persons in charge.
• Allocation of separate radio channel to individual teams.
• Roaming is implemented in the system for uninterruptible communications with teams when moving between objects – transition from one base station to another without the subscriber switching channels.

Benefits for the dispatcher:

1. Permanent communications with the teams, those on duty at grid stations, subordinate facilities and sites using personal and group voice calls and text messages
2. Easy coordination of crews and personnel
3. Option to listen in to conversations of all subscribers on the radio network taking place in the work area
4. Receive confirmation of the safety of an employee in the event of especially dangerous jobs carrying potential risks to human health
5. Checking location of subscribers using GPS receiver built into the radio station
6. Connection of radio subscribers with subscribers of the corporate telephone network

Benefits for personnel:

1. Communications between colleagues along the whole stretch of pipeline being maintained.
2. Extra channel on each base station for local teams.
3. Communications with the controller from the pipeline where repair or maintenance work is being carried out
4. Intercommunication of separate teams and personnel on the pipeline.
5. Option to communicate only within the group when carrying out field- or repair work due to assignment by conversation groups, reflecting specialization
6. Connection with subscribers of the corporate telephone network
7. Personal safety due to such modes as “Lone Worker” and “Man Down” in which the dispatcher will be sent an alarm signal in the absence of activity from the subscriber within a certain period of time or if he drops out
8. Exchange of text messages with radio station subscribers and controller
9. Receive assignments and report on their performance via radios

Benefits for the radio network administrator:

1. Separate administrator’s console
2. Constant monitoring of the system’s efficiency and amount of data transmission on the network
3. Receive full information on the network’s infrastructure
4. Remote management of repeaters and radio servers
5. Configuration of profiles for restricting operator access to base stations, groups, services and radio network channels
