中国石化新闻网讯 据哈特能源7月19日消息，埃克森美孚已于7月18日与另外六家公司签署合作协议，加速开发开放式流程自动化(OPA)系统。 目前参与此次合作的公司包括沙特阿美服务公司、巴斯夫石油公司、康菲石油公司、陶氏化学公司、埃克森美孚研究与工程公司、乔治亚-太平洋有限责任公司和林德公司。 计算机硬件、软件、网络和安全方面的进步，加上日益加剧的全球竞争和网络安全风险，已促使流程行业考虑如何更新流程自动化系统的设计和维护。流程自动化系统在工业制造设施中扮演着类似眼睛和耳朵的角色。 这种协作的最终目标是加速创建基于标准的、开放的、可互操作的、安全的自动化体系结构，该体系结构同时处理当前系统的技术和面对的商业挑战。在这个新的数字时代，这种转变对于终端用户和供应商的竞争力都是必不可少的。 埃森克美孚正在开发一个测试平台，供OPA系统的协作伙伴测试使用，它将作为测试单个组件、标准性能和操作的基础。一旦测试台功能全面，协作伙伴将指定并优先考虑要添加和测试的新组件、标准和系统特性。埃克森美孚的OPA系统测试台计划在2019年底前投入使用。 该测试台的结果将与所有合作伙伴共享，其经验将支持独立的实地试验，鼓励所有合作伙伴开展自己的独立实地试验。 程张翔 编译自 哈特能源 原文如下： Exxon Mobil Inks Agreement To Accelerate Open Process Automation Development Exxon Mobil has signed collaboration agreements with six other companies to accelerate the development of Open Process Automation (OPA) systems on July 18. The companies currently included in this collaboration are Aramco Services Co., BASF, ConocoPhillips Co., The Dow Chemical Co., Exxon Mobil Research and Engineering Co., Georgia-Pacific LLC and Linde PLC. Advances in computer hardware, software, networking and security, coupled with increasing global competition and cybersecurity risks, have driven the process industry to consider ways to update the design and maintenance of process automation systems, which serve as the eyes and ears inside industrial manufacturing facilities. The ultimate goal of this collaboration is to accelerate the creation of a standards-based, open, interoperable, and secure automation architecture that addresses both the technical and commercial challenges of current systems. This transformation is imperative for the competitiveness of both end-users and suppliers in this new digital age. A test bed is being developed for use and testing by the collaboration partners for the OPA systems, which will act as the foundation for testing the performance and operation of individual components and standards. Once the test bed is fully functional, the collaboration partners will nominate and prioritize new components, standards, and system features to be added and tested. Exxon Mobil’s OPA systems test bed is targeted to be operational by year-end 2019. The results from the test bed will be shared with all collaboration partners and the learnings will support independent field trials. All partners are encouraged to develop their own independent field trials.
