2009-11-20 - ABB upgrades control system 80% faster
When an Arabian Alkali Company wanted to upgrade the distributed control system (DCS) at their caustic soda plant, they presented ABB with a challenge: they asked for the new system to be installed very quickly, with less than 24 hours of downtime. ABB met this challenge and successfully installed the first phase of the DCS upgrade in under a day.
“ABB offered us fast delivery, the possibility of doing the job online without plant shutdown and a system that was already familiar to our operators,” says the customer. “These were the main reasons that drove us to go with ABB.”
