Emerson's DeltaV distributed control system and DeltaV Live software will be deployed to operate the ethylene cracker safely and efficiently, with the company's AMS Device Manager software supporting the start-up process and ongoing management of field instrumentation. The advanced automation solutions will significantly reduce engineering time for implementing control strategies aimed at improving efficiency. DeltaV Live software will provide modern user interfaces that simplify management of the plant, enable operators to identify issues earlier and maximize worker productivity.
Virtual DeltaV systems will be used throughout the project to support development, testing and training. An operator training solution using Emerson's MIMIC process simulation software will help operators to familiarize themselves with the new control system prior to start-up, minimizing the risk of potential issues and optimize operator efficiency. Emerson on-site engineers will provide start-up support and consult on the implementation of modern control strategies.
Essential to meeting the timeline will be a range of digital tools that streamline system modernization projects. This includes Emerson's REVAMP software, which uses artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to automate the task of identifying existing control system code to be used in the generation of DeltaV system configuration, eliminating errors and reducing engineering time. Cloud-based tools will support collaborative project planning and execution, streamlining the design, engineering and testing phases, while a range of digital tools will simplify the connection of existing I/O to the new control system.
'Emerson is committed to helping our customers to modernize and digitally transform their production facilities to enable operational improvements,' said
