I&C Engineering

Instrumentation & Controls Engineering Services

Our I&C team specializes in industrial process automation and controls for both small and big facilities, contributing to our multi-disciplinary engineering services. This covers creating and implementing control strategies utilizing a Distributed Control System (DCS) and Programmable Logic Controllers. We work with control systems and communication protocols for a wide range of process technologies. These vary from utility systems to new integrated processes.

GLOBESCI Technologies updated an early design for a plant-wide control network. This entailed developing a novel remote IO system with centralized controllers.

The updated control system hardware was created using a star network. It also addressed the key redundancy requirements for two separate routing paths.

Using pre-planned fiber panels, the home runs were efficiently routed, saving many kilometers of fiber optic cable.

Control System Development

Control systems for greenfield sites can necessitate a variety of vendor packages. In such circumstances, we combine the packages into a single plant-wide control system.

System integration experience

  • Safety Instrumented System (SIS)
  • Emergency Shutdown System (ESD)
  • Burner Management System (BMS)
  • Fire and gas systems that meet international standards (IEC 61508 and IEC 61511)
  • High Integrity Pressure Protection System (HIPPS)

Measurement and control systems can be created using our established philosophy or tailored to your specific requirements.

Given the importance of facility uptime, we take considerable caution while integrating new system components into current infrastructure. In these circumstances, we want to provide a seamless, integrated control system.

When replacing or changing current controls, our experts will determine which solution is the most cost-effective. Vista Projects successfully updated a plant’s pneumatic control system to a PLC architecture.

Common engineering services include:

  • P&ID input preparation
  • instrument index development and review
  • instrument datasheets preparation
  • inline instrument sizing
