Yokogawa is to supply an operator training system (OTS) for a natural gas liquefaction plant being built in Tananger (near Stavanger), Norway.
The OTS is composed of the Omegaland simulation engine and a safety and automation system (SAS) made up of the Centum VP Integrated Production Control System and the Prosafe-RS Safety Instrumented System.
The OTS order has been placed with Yokogawa by Skangass AS, a joint venture between the Norwegian utility Lyse Gass and the finance firm Celsius Invest.
The LNG facility will have an annual production capacity of 300,000 tons that will be supplied to customers throughout Scandinavia and the Baltic region, beginning in 2010.
Using an energy-efficient liquefaction process developed by Linde, the plant will feature lower emissions than comparable facilities.
The OTS will use the same SAS as the actual plant, with identical graphics and alarm behaviour.
This high-fidelity model of the LNG liquefaction process will behave exactly like the actual plant and allow plant upsets and equipment malfunctions to be simulated in an offline environment.
This makes it possible for operators to repeat training so that they are always prepared for such situations.
