Our Services

Built for the Energy Corridor

Technology that keeps energy operations moving

Oil & gas is unlike any other industry we support. You run geographically dispersed operations—rigs, pads, yards, compressor stations, terminals, and remote offices—alongside a corporate headquarters, and you do it under real safety, regulatory, and uptime pressure. A single hour of downtime at the wrong moment is lost production, stalled crews, and risk exposure.

Headquartered in Houston, TTG understands the energy sector and the stakes behind it. We bring enterprise-grade connectivity, OT-aware security, and resilient infrastructure to companies across upstream exploration and production, midstream transport, and downstream processing—plus the oilfield services and industrial firms that support them.

The Stakes

Where energy IT gets hard

The challenges facing oil & gas operations are different from a typical office. These are the pressure points we solve for every day.

Remote and dispersed sites

Rigs, pads, yards, and field offices need reliable connectivity far from the data center—often with intermittent links and no on-site IT.

Exposed control systems

SCADA, OT, and ICS environments were rarely built for today’s threats. Flat networks let an office breach reach operational systems.

Data-heavy workloads

Seismic, geological, and reservoir models push massive files. Storage, transfer, and backup have to keep pace with engineering teams.

Uptime under pressure

Production systems, safety systems, and regulatory reporting can’t wait for a reactive help desk. Downtime has direct operational cost.

Partners across the value chain

Operators, service companies, engineering firms, and JV partners all need to collaborate—securely—without opening the door to everyone.

Ransomware and downtime risk

Energy is a top target for ransomware and nation-state activity. A single incident can halt production and trigger regulatory scrutiny.

What We Deliver

Managed IT built for oil, gas & energy

One accountable partner for the full environment—field to headquarters, IT to OT, everyday support to incident response.

Remote-site & field connectivity

Reliable networking for rigs, pads, yards, compressor stations, and remote offices—wired, wireless, cellular/LTE failover, and secure VPN back to the business. We keep field crews online and productive wherever they work.

SCADA / OT / ICS security & segmentation

We separate operational technology from the business network, control the traffic between them, and monitor the boundary—reducing the blast radius of any incident. Our approach is informed by frameworks like IEC 62443 and NIST guidance for industrial control systems.

Critical-infrastructure cybersecurity

Layered defense across identity, endpoints, email, and network—plus ransomware protection built for operations that can’t afford to stop. We harden Microsoft 365, enforce MFA and least privilege, and align controls to critical-infrastructure expectations.

Data-heavy workloads & high-performance storage

Seismic surveys, geological and reservoir models, and engineering datasets demand fast, resilient storage and fast transfer. We design storage, compute, and file workflows that keep technical teams moving instead of waiting.

Secure collaboration across the value chain

Share data confidently across upstream, midstream, and downstream teams—and with service companies, engineering firms, and JV partners. We implement controlled file sharing, external access, and Microsoft 365 collaboration with the right guardrails.

Multi-site networking & remote operations

Connect Houston-area headquarters, regional offices, and remote operations into one managed, secure network. We handle firewalls, SD-WAN/VPN, Wi-Fi, and remote access so every location performs like it’s down the hall.

Backup & disaster recovery

Automated backups and tested recovery for business and engineering data, so a ransomware event, hardware failure, or site loss doesn’t become an operations-ending event. We design continuity around what your business can’t afford to lose.

24/7 monitoring & response

Round-the-clock monitoring with automated alerting across systems, networks, and security. We catch problems early and respond fast, with clear priority-based response targets for critical operational issues.

Regulatory & safety-system uptime

Keep the systems behind reporting, environmental compliance, and safety instrumented functions available and well-documented. We help maintain the reliability and records that regulated energy operations depend on.

A Strategic Partner

More than a help desk—a technology partner for energy

The best IT decisions in energy are made before the next capital project, acquisition, or expansion—not during an outage. TTG acts as an extension of your leadership team, giving you a clear view of risk, roadmap, and spend.

You get Houston-based engineers, direct-dial support without call-center runaround, and vendor-agnostic advice focused on the best fit for your operations—not the highest-margin product. Whether we serve as your outsourced IT department or support your existing team with specialized OT and security expertise, you have one accountable partner across every site.

OT/IT Security

How TTG secures OT and critical infrastructure

Operational technology can’t be bolted onto an office security plan. We protect control environments without getting in the way of production.

Network segmentation

Separate IT and OT networks with controlled, monitored boundaries so a business-side compromise can’t spread into control systems.

Continuous monitoring

24/7 visibility across endpoints, identity, and the IT/OT boundary, with alerting tuned to catch the activity that matters most.

Incident response & recovery

Documented response plans and tested backups so that if something does happen, you recover operations quickly and with confidence.

Framework-aligned hardening

Controls informed by recognized standards for industrial systems and critical infrastructure, including IEC 62443, NIST, and CISA guidance.
