Maximize Plant Efficiency with a Total Integrated Turbomachinery Control System

Learn how a fully integrated control approach improves compressor protection, optimizes load-sharing, and drives production beyond design targets.

Managing complex turbomachinery operations across an entire facility requires more than isolated control strategies. This white paper details how CCC applied a Total Integrated Control System (ITCS) at the ConocoPhillips Bayu-Undan project to unify control across flash gas compressors, turbo-expander/recompressor trains, and reinjection/export compressors.

The integrated approach coordinated anti-surge control, performance optimization, load sharing, and protection strategies across multiple machines and services, resulting in improved compressor reliability, enhanced liquid recovery, and increased plant stability. 

Feedback from ConocoPhillips demonstrates how the ITCS has enabled operations to consistently exceed production targets and optimize asset performance. Dynamic simulation, customized load-sharing strategies, patented overspeed protection, and seamless machine communication made this a benchmark project in turbomachinery control integration.
