Project Description

The project developed by CPC Engineering in collaboration with ABB and Bumi Armada aims to implement over 300 improvements identified during a study conducted in November 2023. These improvements focus on standardizing and optimizing the control of flow, level, pressure, temperature, and other key areas of the FPSO plant, without the need for hardware modifications.

Project Phases

Scope Definition (SOW): The control loops to be addressed will be established, along with a schedule and the activities required for each phase of the project.

Conceptual and Detailed Design: CPC Engineering will develop a conceptual design explaining the proposed solutions and their benefits. Then, the detailed design will be developed and implemented in ABB’s DCS system.

Site Activities: These will include the implementation of the first standard design, dynamic simulation in the DCS, tuning tool connections, and the commissioning of the first control loop, with validation by all involved parties.

Approval and Standard Application: After approval of the first loop, the solution will be applied to the remaining loops, ensuring stable and optimized operation.
