Oil storage tank farm

Scope of work:

Procurement, assembling, FAT, commissioning, SAT for:

-          PLC rack (Siemens S7- 300), operator station (PcVue)

Procurement installation and SAT for:

-          control valves, tank gauging system (Endress+ Hauser), flow pressure and temperature measurements

Integration of flow meter skid.

Next stage of the project will be the up-grade of the system for cover the process upgrading from 2 tanks to 4  fuel tanks and the implementation and integration of the Fire & Gas system

 

Description:

We designed a process control and monitoring system for an oil storage tank farm that helped the operators in performing all the necessary tasks in loading/unloading farm tanks under strict safety conditions.
