Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is a remote monitoring and control system that uses complex applications and numerous data communications resources.

SCADA systems can be used to automate and remotely control pipeline operations.
Trapil designs, tailors and deploys IT resources for pipeline operation.

It also performs maintenance and upgrades applications. The SCADA system uses applications developed by Trapil in three areas:

• Local remote transmission units (RTU).
• A control center system.
• Remote transmission.



Local Sites :

Local installations facilities perform data acquisition and provide management, control and analysis resources.
These resources cover:

• Local data acquisition.
• Management of complex PLCs.
• Supervision and local control.
• Measurement monitoring and current alarms status.
• Tank level control (height/volume conversion, threshold alarm).
• Data Logs.


Central Control System

The dispatching applications available enable the pipeline network to be remote controlled, using the following functions:

Data acquisition, display and monitoring.
Remote control and remote monitoring sequences.
Metering.
Line balance.
Batch tracking (real-time monitoring of freight).
Data Logs.

Remote transmission

Data transfer from local sites to the central system is optimized using modems, multiplexers and transmission computers and concentrators.

Using a modeled pipeline, Trapil can also provide a hydraulics phenomenon simulation application to train dispatchers.

Whatever your needs, these services can be applied at specific points or be combined in a comprehensive system integration study.
