The Operational Challenge
§
The North Sea offshore sector is a vibrant business area with major
reserves of liquid oil and natural gas.
§
To support the sector, many supply chain partners seek to continue to
expand their industrial solutions.
§
It is estimated that around 80% of the E/E/PES (1st & early 2nd
Generation systems) currently running in the process industries are in
‘Classic’ lifetime phase
§
This demonstrates the challenge we face in not just operating and
maintaining new projects using modern SIS; but also the mix of legacy
systems as identified above.
