STERLING, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SkyBitz®, the leader in remote asset tracking and information management solutions, today announced that GP II Energy, Inc., a leader in the oil and gas drilling and rental equipment industry, has selected SkyBitz’s GLS asset tracking solution for more than 600 of its frac tanks and other equipment.

GP II Energy was looking for a more complete picture of its available equipment in the field. The information provided by SkyBitz helps operations personnel quickly find and coordinate the movement of critical equipment and optimize its allocation. SkyBitz also helps GP II Energy to reduce their transportation costs to remote well pad or drilling sites. Using SkyBitz solutions for total asset visibility also gives GP II Energy the benefit of increased safety and security, allowing for quick recovery of missing or stolen equipment.

“We are constantly looking for ways to streamline and improve our operational efficiencies. Prior to using SkyBitz solutions, we were tracking everything manually through spreadsheets. SkyBitz remote asset tracking and information management solutions have revolutionized what we’re doing. It’s helped us get a better picture of our frac tanks, trailers and other equipment. Ninety-nine percent of our rental equipment is in the field at all times and needs to be tracked. That’s why it’s so important to know where it is,” said Les Bullard, Operations Superintendent, GP II Energy, Inc. “Now we are able to see what’s being used every day and the information we get is integral to the daily work tickets and invoices we create.”

SkyBitz’s Gemini GLS tags coupled with Web-based application, SkyBitz InSight, provides managers the ability to view assets in real-time and run customizable management and operational reports for each piece of equipment in their inventory.
