Innovation in the energy sector is rarely accidental. It is built over decades of learning, adapting, and anticipating what the industry will need next. At Trilogy Energy Solutions, innovation is not a buzzword; it is the foundation of a 30-year journey that has shaped how energy companies trade, transport, process, and account for hydrocarbons.
From early days as a pioneering ETRM provider to today’s role as a full-service energy partner, Trilogy has consistently stood at the intersection of energy expertise and software excellence.
This is the story behind that evolution and the next chapter being written through TIES, Trilogy’s cloud-native, end-to-end energy solutions software.
#A 30-Year Journey Rooted in Energy Expertise
When Trilogy Energy began more than three decades ago, the energy industry was grappling with increasing market complexity. Deregulation, volatile pricing, and growing transaction volumes demanded better systems for managing risk and revenue.
At the time, few companies truly understood both the operational realities of energy markets and the technical requirements of enterprise-grade software.
Trilogy did.
As an early pioneer in ETRM (Energy Trading and Risk Management) systems, Trilogy’s software helped companies bring discipline, transparency, and control to their trading operations.
What distinguished Trilogy even then was a deep understanding of how energy actually moves (from the wellhead to the burner tip) and how financial outcomes are inseparably linked to physical operations.
As the industry evolved, so did Trilogy’s scope; expanding beyond trading into scheduling, measurement, processing, settlement, and accounting. Each step was driven by customer needs and informed by decades of hands-on industry experience.
#From Point Solutions to True Partnership
Over time, the limitations of siloed systems became increasingly clear. Many midstream operators found themselves juggling multiple platforms; one for trading, another for plant operations, and yet another for accounting. The result was duplicated data, manual reconciliations, delayed close cycles, and increased operational risk.
Trilogy Energy Solutions saw this fragmentation as an opportunity.
Rather than offering another point solution, Trilogy set out to become a full-service energy partner. This meant supporting the entire value chain with integrated, purpose-built midstream oil and gas software that reflects how energy businesses actually operate.
This vision ultimately led to the creation of TIES.
#TIES: The Evolution of Trilogy Innovation
TIES represents the culmination of Trilogy Energy’s 30 years of innovation. Built as a single, cloud-native platform, TIES connects trading, scheduling, processing, measurement, and accounting within one unified system - fully integrated with ETRM.
Unlike legacy architectures that rely on batch integrations and manual workarounds, TIES was designed from the ground up to be cohesive. Data is entered once and flows seamlessly across functions, enabling real-time visibility and decision-making.
Key capabilities include:
Integrated trading and contracts management
Operational scheduling and plant processing
Measurement and volume reconciliation
Revenue accounting and financial reporting
Cloud-native scalability and security
For midstream operators, the impact is transformative. TIES reduces operational friction, shortens close cycles, and provides a single source of truth across the organization.
#Case Study Snapshots: Innovation in Action
The real measure of any energy solutions software is how it performs in the field. Trilogy Energy Solutions has partnered with a wide range of operators to modernize their systems and streamline operations. The following examples (Scissortail and Eagleridge) highlight how TIES delivered tangible results.
Scissortail: Supporting Growth Without Growing Pains
Scissortail was experiencing rapid asset growth and needed a system that could scale alongside it. Legacy tools struggled to keep pace, creating bottlenecks in scheduling and accounting.
Trilogy Energy Solutions delivered a platform that supported Scissortail’s expansion without adding operational overhead. Automated workflows and integrated data allowed teams to manage increased volumes with the same headcount.
“With Trilogy, we didn’t just add software; we added a partner who understood where we were headed,” noted a Scissortail leader.
Eagleridge: Driving Efficiency Through Integration
Eagleridge sought greater alignment between operations and finance. Disconnected systems were leading to delays in reporting and uncertainty in margins.
Through TIES, Eagleridge achieved tighter cross-departmental integration. Real-time data access improved forecasting, and financial close processes became faster and more predictable.
“The integration changed how our teams collaborate,” said an Eagleridge executive. “Everyone is working from the same data, in the same system.”
#Thought Leadership Backed by Experience
What sets Trilogy Energy Solutions apart is not just technology, but perspective. With 30 years in the industry, Trilogy has seen market cycles, regulatory shifts, and technology revolutions come and go. That experience informs a pragmatic approach to innovation; one focused on durability, adaptability, and customer success.
Trilogy leaders are often sought out for insight into midstream digital transformation because they understand both the promise and the pitfalls of technology adoption.
This mindset is embedded in every aspect of Trilogy’s work, from product design to implementation and ongoing support.
#Where Innovation Meets Energy
At its core, Trilogy Energy Solutions exists to help energy companies operate with clarity and confidence. By combining deep industry knowledge with modern, cloud-native technology, Trilogy delivers energy solutions software that evolves with its customers.
From its early days as an ETRM pioneer to the TIES (The Integrated Energy System) as a fully integrated oil and gas platform, Trilogy’s journey reflects a consistent commitment to innovation with purpose.
As the energy industry faces increasing complexity (from market volatility to digital transformation pressures) the need for trusted partners has never been greater. Trilogy Energy Solutions stands ready, bringing 30 years of insight, innovation, and partnership to the challenges ahead.
