Global technology leader ABB has secured a project to install its extended automation system at a greenfield pilot plant for Saudi Basic Industries Corp (SABIC) in Jubail, it said in a statement.
SABIC will apply ABB’s integrated automation, control and safety solutions to the company's Utilities Park and Pilot project, which is a part of the SABIC Technology Centre (STC).
Combining the functionality of a distributed control system (DCS), electrical control system and safety instrumented system (SIS), ABB’s 800xA platform will provide big data, delivered in real-time, alongside predictive analytics that will support SABIC making accurate and timely decisions to enhance the productivity and performance of the pilot plant.
“As part of its 2025 strategy, SABIC has committed to innovation, sustainability and implementing digitalization technologies that improve its productivity and commercial capabilities,” Kevin Kosisko, managing director - Energy Industries at ABB, said.
“Our ABB Ability 800xA extended automation system will support SABIC’s long-term success by improving engineering efficiencies and enabling optimal asset use and operating performance,” he added.
Work on the pilot is due to commence in early 2020.
