For over a decade we’ve been building and innovating the industry’s leading – and most cost-effective – wellsite monitoring system & software: the WatchDog platform.
Get WATCHDOG: the industry’s FIRST and BEST PLATFORM FOR virtual wellsite visit solutions.
Increase production
In a time when unpredictable global oil prices can create challenges, increasing runtime is critical. Whether it’s increasing production from mature wells or drilling new ones without expanding budgets, WatchDog gives you a low-cost way to know the status of all your assets, all the time.
Reduce Equipment Failures
WatchDog gives you actionable information so you can avoid equipment failures. Once Watchdog is installed, you don’t need to make a trip to the wellsite to know if you have a problem. Operators get actionable information on wellsite priorities – and fewer runtime losses as a result.
Save operator time & increase safety
Bad weather. Dangerous roads. Long days of driving. Manual site visits take up a lot of time for field operators and pumpers – it’s often 50% of their jobs – and all those miles create potential safety issues. We help you keep your team safer and free up their time.
Reduce environmental issues
Leaks and negative environmental events can be catastrophic to the reputation of its business. And that’s before you consider the costs of unplanned downtime and cleanup. WatchDog helps reduce the frequency and impact of environmental issues.

Remote Monitoring
Thinking about remote wellsite monitoring? Start here with our foundational Remote Monitoring solution and learn how you can increase production, mitigate the costs of equipment failures and environmental issues, and keep your team safe in the field – all for the lowest long term cost.
Manage and understand your wells on an exception-basis with our Production Well Monitoring solution. With up-to-the-minute information, you’ll always know if your wells are pumping, producing, or leaking so you can increase production, reduce environmental incidents and equipment failures and keep your team safe.
Leaks can happen. The goal is to catch them early. That helps protect your company’s reputation and avoids unnecessary costs and other consequences. With our Injection System & Pipeline Leak Detection solution you can reduce the frequency and impact of leaks across all your wellsites.
Our Remote Tank Monitoring solution helps you identify injection system leaks at the wellheads and small or large pipeline leaks – all with simple, easy-to-understand information. That helps free up your team to focus on higher value work like maximizing the overall production of your wells.
Optimize the timer intervals on your wells to optimize run cycles which maximize production, avoid pumping dry scenarios, and protect all the assets you have in the field. Our Timer Well Optimization solution gives you the minute-by-minute data you need to drive efficiencies and optimize your wells.
With the event-based notification system in our Remote Wellsite Control solution, you’re able to target specific events and turn the well off or on based on pre-identified criteria. This enables you to effectively prevent any leaks from occurring.
For over a decade, we’ve been leading the pack on the Virtual Wellsite Visit, the industry’s first and best solution that combines data collection telemetry, a camera, and software. It’s durable, simple to install, easy to use on web or mobile and starts delivering ROI from day one. WatchDog also integrates effectively with monitoring systems like SCADA. But unlike SCADA, no additional infrastructure, configuration, or programming is required.
Watchdog Hardware Platform
The WatchDog Hardware Platform is a purpose-built device designed for the wellsite. It’s self-contained, self-powered, easily installed, and requires zero infrastructure besides a local cell network. The platform monitors wells to indicate whether they’re pumping, producing fluid, or leaking, along with reporting on pressure and tank volumes. It also features options for on/off control.
K9 Operator Portal
The K9 Operator Portal is a web-based application where you can view data sourced from the wellsite by the WatchDog Unit. Our patented algorithm ensures any production loss or leak is detected and reported quickly. We store all data in the cloud so you have on-demand access to the information you need for analysis and reporting.
K9 Mobile App
The K9 Mobile App delivers alerts and ‘at-a-glance’ status of all your wells, no matter where you’re located. For example, production engineers can access all the data they need for analysis from the office while field operators can check any or all wells while they’re on the road, at the site, or anywhere in the field.
We work well with SCADA AND OTHER FIELD DATA CAPTURE SOLUTIONS
We believe the evolution of operational effectiveness trends towards using the smallest amounts of data to make the most effective decisions. This is how we designed WatchDog – to be a simple, easy-to-use solution that can be installed in about 30 minutes and that requires no configuration. We do integrate effectively with SCADA but WatchDog gives you just the actionable information you need in order to prioritize which wells to address. It’s all signal, no noise.
“Crescent Point is pleased to partner with AFTI WatchDog ®. As we continue our efforts to improve our overall efficiencies, we have already seen the benefits of field automation in our operations. We’re excited about working alongside AFTI to optimize production and reduce our cost structure.”
Rob Fiorentino Director of Operations Engineering, Crescent Point
“We are driving to increase surveillance capabilities while operating safely and with high environmental standards. Implementing WatchDog® as our standard complement to SCADA will allow us to utilize technology to operate more efficiently and cost effectively, without sacrificing our goal of responsible development.”
Barett Pedersen Manager of Optimization, Teine Energy Ltd.
“Delivering cost effective production growth within the current environment requires that we produce all of our wells, new and old, more efficiently than ever before. AFTI WatchDog® has provided a product at a great price, along with training and support, that helps to ensure we can meet our production and cost targets on hundreds of producing wells throughout our operating areas.”
Jordan May Production Manager, Whitecap Resources
“Backed by responsive customer service when problems do arise, simplicity is this tool’s greatest asset, from installation to daily monitoring. For remote facilities & well locations, there is no better choice. “
“I’m a fan of the technology, it’s helped us put additional surveillance on our well sites and facilities by providing us with a tool to allow our field team to operate by priority”
Robert Finlay, Superintendent, Operations, Ovintiv
