IT for oil and gas
IT built for field sites, control systems and regulators.
Rigs, platforms and field offices sit where infrastructure is thin, and the systems that move product are now connected and targeted. Talos supports energy operations from the Houston office to the furthest site.
The short answer
Talos provides IT support and managed services for oil and gas companies across upstream, midstream and downstream work. We connect remote wellheads, platforms and field offices with satellite and cellular failover, secure the SCADA and OT systems that run pumps, valves and pipelines, and document the controls that TSA pipeline directives, BSEE and API standards require. Our team has supported Houston energy companies since 2014.
Who it's for
The IT problems energy companies run into
Remote site connectivity
Wellheads, platforms and field offices need dependable links where infrastructure is limited, and an outage at a remote site can hold work up for days.
SCADA and OT security
The operational technology controlling pumps, valves and pipelines is more connected than ever and attracts sophisticated attacks.
Regulatory compliance
TSA pipeline security directives, BSEE requirements and API standards call for documented cybersecurity, and gaps bring fines and shutdowns.
Data at scale
Seismic data, drilling reports and production logs pile up quickly, and keeping them secure and reachable never stops.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Three things general IT providers rarely handle well. Connectivity for remote sites where infrastructure is limited, including satellite and cellular failover for rigs and field offices. Protection for the operational technology that runs pumps, valves and pipelines, through segmentation, intrusion detection and OT-specific monitoring. And the written policies and controls that pipeline and offshore regulators expect to see.
Yes. Remote site infrastructure is central to this work. We design and manage connectivity for field offices, rigs and remote facilities with satellite and cellular failover, because a single failed circuit should not stop operations, and downtime at a distant site can delay work for days.
We do not treat them like ordinary office IT. Network segmentation keeps operational systems off the general business network, and intrusion detection and monitoring designed for OT environments watch for anything unusual.
Yes. TSA pipeline security directives, BSEE requirements and API standards all expect documented cybersecurity practices, and falling short can mean fines and shutdowns. We support compliance and audit work with policies and controls mapped to each requirement.
Your disaster recovery plan covers it: off-site backups outside the storm's path, failover for critical systems and a runbook for who does what, so operations come back online quickly after a storm.
