Closing the Loop Driving Reliability, Safety and Energy Improvements
Jim Cahill
Emerson’s Brian Joe and Ben Skal presented on Plantweb technologies and how they help facilitate digital transformation initiatives. Brian opened noting that process control is all based on the See-Decide-Act closed-loop model. Typically it is an open-loop process for managing reliability, safety and energy efficiency. By closing the loop improvements can be made in these areas to improve operational performance. One…

Ovation Advanced Condition Monitoring
Jim Cahill
Jason King Emerson’s Jason King shares an update on advanced condition monitoring in the Ovation distributed control system at last week’s 2019 Ovation Users’ Group conference. This integrated machinery protection and condition monitoring module built directly into the Ovation system. It is capable of typical equipment protection functions, but also has condition monitoring technology built in, so no separate software…

Avoiding Low Voltage Electrical Asset Outages
Jim Cahill
Early in my career as a freshly-minted electrical engineer in the mid-1980s, I worked on projects on offshore oil & gas production platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. These platforms required turbine or reciprocating engine gas generators with diesel engine backup for when gas was not available from the production stream. Low voltage (LV) distribution systems, typically at 480VAC were used to power the pumps, compressors…

Transforming Reliability Work Practices
Jim Cahill
Every day, our lives continue to be digitally transformed in how we communicate and engage with each other. It’s not just the technologies in smart phones, smart watches and applications; it’s how we use these technologies to change the way we accomplish things. The same is true for manufacturers and producers in their digital transformation initiatives. Technologies play a key role, but it’s the changes toward more…

IIoT for Equipment Condition Monitoring.
Jim Cahill
Even back when I was a young engineer in the 1980s, we had condition monitoring solutions for our large turbine generators and compressors on the offshore oil & gas production platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. Mike Boudreaux Condition monitoring technology has advanced greatly since then. Now, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)-based sensors can feed much of the data to enable more assets – not just rotating equipment…
