The Challenge

Moray East is a highly competitive offshore wind project and provides the equivalent of 40% of Scotland’s electricity requirement.​ To reduce unexpected downtime, a myriad of agencies require access to critical data to assist in preventative maintenance. This requires resilient high bandwidth services into remote locations as well as a critical communication infrastructure for the offshore and onshore substation at New Deer and remote Marine Operations Centre at Fraserburgh. ​

Solution

We developed a secure CISCO-based DMZ allowing multiple authorised agencies to obtain their relevant data whilst maintaining the security of data owned by others. This was achieved using cloud based two factor authentication services. ​

Working with Exponential-e, we have been able to provide multi-vendor resilient network over 1Gig bearers, with additional 4G back-up solution to both the substation and the operating base some miles away in Fraserburgh. ​

Vysiion, utilising its tried and tested methodology, delivered secure and resilient SCADA networks telephony and physical security systems. ​
