Distributed assets
Tank Farms and Loading Piers

Isolated assets
Pipelines and Wellheads

Monitoring and control of inventories are critical today in realizing safe, efficient, continuous plant operations. Too little and you risk production, too much and you increase your operational costs. However, this isnt without its challenges since loading piers and tank farms tend to be distributed over large areas, making them expensive to fully instrument. Yokogawas wireless solutions are the ideal choice for such applications, allowing you to minimize infrastructure cost while maximizing the surveillance of these valuable inventories. Wireless gateways can be strategically placed for maximum asset coverage while wireless devices deployed within the network improve asset visibility and quality of inventory measurements. Both tank farms and loading piers can benefit from wireless pressure, level, and temperature profiling for efficient inventory management and control.

One of the most difficult challenges within the upstream industry is the remote monitoring of assets such as satellite wellheads, production platforms and pipelines, all of which are vital to the flow of hydro-carbons from production fields around the world. At Yokogawa, we are able to offer you a unique combination of technologies, seamlessly integrated into a solution to address these upstream challenges.

Vacuum columns and Flare stacks

Refining and petrochemical plants may not seem a target place for wireless network deployment since the established plants are already well instrumented. However, these plants are facing severe environmental regulations at full operating capacity. Some measurements are never implemented due to the competing demands of cost versus performance. Vacuum columns and flare stacks are good examples of where the cost to support these elevated applications become prohibitive and where measurements are needed to meet environmental regulations. Yokogawas industrial wireless sensors give you opportunities to redress these measurements that were not feasible with wired systems. Eliminating operational blind spots, improve production efficiency, safety, asset management and environmental compliance.

Modular and rotating equipment bring with them several challenges for wired instrumentation, namely, the cabling of power and output signals. These are normally executed using slip ring contacts in rotating equipment and connectors for modular systems. This is where wireless instrumentation offers the most benefits. The wireless sensor network solution will free you from all the limitations of wired instruments; slip ring contacts and connectors are prone to wear and tear. With no moving parts or complex connectors, ISA100.11a wireless transmitters enable you to do more with less, improving your assets visibility and overall reliability. The simplest decision you can make to improve your processes today.
