Real-Time Monitoring and Predictive Analytics for Gas Turbine Operations

SnapShot is a subscription-based monitoring solution developed by SISO Engineering to help operators remotely troubleshoot, analyze, and predict issues in gas turbine and control system environments. Whether you’re maintaining one unit or managing a fleet, SnapShot delivers the insight you need to operate with confidence, reduce downtime, and make smarter decisions—fast.

WATCH HOW SNAPSHOT WORKS

Gas Turbine Monitoring

SnapShot provides comprehensive gas turbine monitoring for real-time performance tracking and predictive maintenance. Our gas turbine monitoring system collects hundreds of turbine parameters including temperatures, pressures, vibration, and power output. The SnapShot gas turbine monitoring platform uses the Matrix Box edge device for on-site data collection, transmitting to cloud-based dashboards for remote access. This IoT monitoring of turbines approach enables operators to monitor turbine performance from anywhere, supporting both single units and multi-site fleets.

Gas Turbine Analytics

Beyond monitoring, SnapShot delivers gas turbine analytics that transform raw data into actionable insights. Our gas turbine analytics platform identifies performance trends, predicts failures, and optimizes operations using machine learning algorithms. Gas turbine analytics help operators diagnose efficiency losses, optimize washing schedules, and predict maintenance needs weeks in advance. SnapShot combines real-time gas turbine monitoring with intelligent analytics in a single platform.
BASE PILLAR:

At the core of every subscription is the SnapShot Base Plan, which includes SISO’s Matrix Box configuration, secure web-based dashboards, biannual asset reviews, and direct support from our engineering experts.

The Matrix Box is SISO’s edge device designed to bridge on-site control systems with cloud-based monitoring and analytics. Installed at the customer’s facility, the Matrix Box collects real-time operational data directly from turbine control systems and securely transmits it to SISO’s cloud platform. From there, the data is used to power monitoring dashboards, trend analysis, and diagnostic tools available through the SnapShot service. The device supports multiple communication protocols and is engineered to integrate with both legacy and modern control environments.

With the release of SnapShot v1.8, the Turbine Data Collection System (TDCS) delivers next-generation capabilities. The platform now includes full Grafana integration, real-time control system signal management via the Tag Wrangler app, and Analytics on the edge, enabling sub-second data access and advanced local monitoring. These enhancements give operators clearer visibility into equipment performance, reduce uncertainty, and make it easier than ever to detect and resolve emerging issues before they impact operations.

With full remote visibility through SnapShot, SISO experts can diagnose and support issues without requiring an on-site visit—saving time, cost, and unnecessary downtime.

FAQs

What is gas turbine monitoring?
Gas turbine monitoring continuously tracks turbine operating data for performance optimization and predictive alarms maintenance. A gas turbine monitoring system like SnapShot collects temperatures, pressures, vibration, and power data for real-time visibility into turbine health.
Gas turbine analytics interpret monitoring data to identify patterns, predict failures and degradation, and recommend actions. SnapShot’s gas turbine analytics use machine learning to diagnose problems and optimize performance beyond what simple monitoring provides.
IoT monitoring of turbines uses connected edge devices and cloud platforms for remote turbine access. SnapShot’s IoT monitoring approach enables operators to monitor gas turbines from anywhere using web dashboards and mobile apps.
A gas turbine monitoring system uses an edge device like SnapShot’s Matrix Box to collect data from the turbine control system. Data transmits (as one-way data traffic) to cloud servers for storage and analytics and displays on web dashboards for remote access and real-time visibility.
While SnapShot doesn’t offer literal “remote control turbine engines” operation, it provides comprehensive remote monitoring and management capabilities for turbine operations.
