It’s Wattage Wednesday on SuperTalk 1270AM Bismarck-Mandan’s Talk of the Town with Steve Bakken. Bobby Adkins and Stuart Schmidt of iTankData and joins The Crude Life’s founder Jason Spiess and Bakken during two segments of the 2-hour daily talk and news program.
The four discuss the technology of the Bakken and other oil and gas basins across the United States. The conversation specifically dove into what iTankdata does for oil and gas, which is remotely monitoring fluid levels in tanks and provides management data to mobile devices.
Adkins says the cost is $625 plus $20 a month for the data plan. Spiess compares it to a past article and interview with Kerry Frank and Comply365, which revolutionized the aviation industry with the use of iPads to save gas money.
Adkins explains that their technology is more cost-effective and accurate than competitors like SKAA systems. Stuart recently spoke with operators from Murphy Oil and OXY about bringing in additional chemical and oil field technology.
For example, in this case the technology can remotely monitor tanks and identify leaks and slow-downs, improving efficiency and catching negative events sooner. It can be used by anyone with a tank, including farmers and fuel storage facilities.

Sponsors, Music and Other Show Notes
Studio Sponsor: The Industrial Forest
The Industrial Forest is a network of environmentally minded and socially conscious businesses that are using industrial innovations to build a network of sustainable forests across the United States.
Weekly Sponsor: Stephen Heins, The Practical Environmentalist
Historically, Heins has been a writer on subjects ranging from broadband and the US electricity grid, to environmental, energy and regulatory topics.
Heins is also a vocal advocate of the Internet of Everything, free trade, and global issues affecting the third of our planet that still lives in abject poverty.
Heins is troubled by the Carbon Tax, Cap & Trade, Carbon Offsets and Carbon Credits, because he questions their efficacy in solving the climate problem, are too gamable by rent seekers, and are fraught with unreliable accounting.
Heins worries that climate and other environmental reporting in the US and Europe has become too politicized, ignores the essential role carbon-based energy continues to play in the lives of billions, demonizes the promise and practicality of Nuclear Energy and cheerleads for renewable energy sources that cannot solve the real world problems of scarcity and poverty.
Look at what’s happened to me.
I can’t believe it myself.
Suddenly I’m down at the bottom of the world.
It should have been somebody else
Believe it or not, I’m walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-e-e.
Barterin’ away with some wings at the fair
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it’s just me
