Emerson Corp., St. Louis, completed the purchase of Calgary, Alberta-based software and automation businesses from Zedi. The businesses have approximately 155 employees in North America.
Emerson said the addition of Zedi’s cloud supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) platform will further enable Emerson to help oil and gas producers increase production and lower operating costs through cloud-based monitoring, control and optimization. Combined with Emerson’s extensive applications, controller, instrumentation and flow metering portfolio, this acquisition expands opportunities for Emerson across the global oil and gas production market.
