Central Control Rooms and Petrochemical Plants: Costs and Benefits
نویسندگان
چکیده
Petrochemical plants are increasingly faced with the need to upgrade their control centers to support the installation of more advanced control systems and to better protect operations personnel in the event of catastrophe. Plants often take advantage of this opportunity to consolidate existing control rooms into a central facility, in hopes of improving plant-wide communications, increasing operating efficiency, and reducing construction costs.
