Larsen & Toubro bagged an order worth Rs.74.7 crore from Oil & Natural Gas Corporation for SCADA system for onshore control centres (OCC) for offshore operations.

The system will be used for issuance of emergency shut down (ESD) commands to 133 well platforms as well as 13 process platforms from OCC or from nearby process platform in case of an emergency for ensuring the safety of offshore operations and operating people. It will also be used for disaster recovery in case of natural calamites.

The project involves setting up state-of-the-art control centres, collaboration rooms for 24x7 hours operation and monitoring, video conferencing with offshore process complexes and drilling rigs, monitoring of rotating equipment data from process platforms, integration with various third party system like SCADA (production, drilling, lift optimization and ESP data), VRC (sub-surface data), VATMS (logistic data), IAM (integrated asset management), monitoring status feedback of critical shutdown valves on process platforms and running status of all critical rotating equipment.

The scope of work involves design, engineering, construction, installation and commissioning of OCC in Mumbai and offshore locations. The project is expected to be completed in 11 months.
