  SCADA      
  At the heart of your production and transportation processes are the devices and equipment that monitor and control through automation technology. From the field to the corporate environment, automation impacts nearly every aspect of industrial processes.
   
There are many alternatives available for building a SCADA system. The challenge is to devise a cost-effective solution that meets the client’s requirements, is implemented on a demanding schedule, and operates in a safe, effective manner. Customers need a reliable, user-friendly, and easy-to-maintain solution that employs the latest technology, eliminates task redundancy, and retrieves current and historical data accurately and timely.

  DCS      
  We provide a complete range of distributed control system (DCS) services including evaluations and studies, optimal system selection, detailed engineering, commissioning, and startup. Our years of experience in both greenfield and retrofit DCS projects provides our customers with the best-fit, lowest-risk solutions. We can act as the customer representative, assisting in the selection and implementation of DCS solutions, or take project responsibility as the main automation contractor.

  PLC      
  We perform complete programmable logic controller (PLC)implementations, including relay logic system replacement, logic and control strategy design, PLC selection and purchasing, panel design and purchasing, detailed termination and associated electrical design, motor control design, programming, documentation, testing, and commissioning.
   
 
Our experience in PLCs goes beyond basic sequential control. We routinely implement network-based systems that perform both process and batch control. We have successfully developed advanced functions within co-processors or interfaced computers by using industry-standard programming languages such as ladder logic and all IEC-1131 languages. We often use PLCs to perform RTU functions as part of a SCADA system by applying our detailed knowledge of data communication, network processing, and protocols.

  Open Architecture Compressor Controls (OACC)      
 

Emerson Process Solutions’ Hydrocarbon and Energy Industry Center is a world
leader in open architecture compressor controls (OACC). We offer fuel, surge, and
unit sequencing controls for centrifugal and reciprocating compressors in pipeline
systems. We have implemented over 100 OACC applications for production,
transmission, and distribution companies.

  Safety Systems      
 

With over 30 years of experience in the hydrocarbons industry, we have developed a comprehensive understanding of hazardous materials. We frequently engineer and implement safety and emergency shutdown (ESD) systems, including fire and gas detection based on API, NFPA, ISA, and IEC standards. We also implement cause and effect matrices and assist with their development. Our engineers and technologists have expertise in the use of redundant processors, redundant input/output (I/O), TMR technology (such as Triconex and ICS Triplex), automatic and manual switching, and redundant end devices to develop appropriate solutions for our customers’ needs.

  Optimization      
  Our process optimization technologies substantially increase the economic benefits of automation. These technologies provide the intelligence for continuous real-time adjustment of our customers’ processes, thereby improving throughput and reducing energy consumption, operating and maintenance costs, and environmental impact.
   
 

Our optimization solutions successfully maximize a plant’s performance. By selecting the most appropriate optimization strategies, our customers realize a greater return for a lower life cycle cost. Our strategies range from basic control loop improvements to advanced process control strategies based on mathematical models, multi-variable controls, expert systems, and/or neural network applications. The end result is a plant that has increased the amount or quality of product using less energy, feedstock, or time. ...more about Gas Plant optimization

  Telecommunications and Networks      
  We add value to telecommunications projects by providing complete, proven technology solutions. Our experience integrates telecommunication and network systems within a facility, between facilities, and between worldwide corporate systems.
   
When deploying a new network or technology platform, you need a timely, cost-effective solution and significant pool of skilled resources. The industry demands strict requirements for accessible and reliable voice, data, and video. Optimized network performance must be available on a 24 x 7 x 365 basis.
