ONEgas

Design a Graphical Interface to Control the Flow of Gas

Modern digital tools help ONEgas to efficiently monitor and control offshore platforms and onshore systems from our central control room. The aim of this project is to develop a single graphical interface identifying how the system is controlled within a simulated environment.

You will have the opportunity to work within our three key discipline departments – operations, maintenance, and engineering – learning how control systems have been evolved and enhanced through the use of digital systems. The ONEgas staff will share their experiences and expertise to help you with your project challenge.

You will need to consider how our current systems are designed, the control room requirements, and the system requirements to be able to design a safe and functional control graphic.

At the end of the project, you will present your work in the form of a report and a presentation to the Control and Automation Technical Authority for feedback.
