MOSCOW (MRC) -- OOO Kirishinefteorgsintez selected Honeywell to supply its experion process knowledge system (PKS) and advanced alarm manager system at the company’s refinery in Kirishi, in the Leningrad region of Russia, officials said on Tuesday, reported Hydrocarbonprocessing.
OOO Kirishinefteorgsintez said it chose to install Experion PKS as part of the upgrade process to its gas fractionating unit’s compressor block and the crude distillation unit.
Experion PKS will help to optimize production processes by providing the tight integration of production subsystems as well as safety, industrial security and advanced control systems, enabling plant operators to work more effectively and make more informed decisions, the company said.
"Honeywell’s Experion PKS solution enabled us to realize the benefits of these solutions and ensure we were able to rise to the challenge of automating our process units," he added.
Kirishinefteorgsintez is the only refinery in the North-West of Russia, which makes all kinds of fuel, a wide range of petrochemicals, including polystyrene (PS). The project processing capacity of the plant is 19.8 million tpa of oil. The company is a part of Surgutneftegas. We remind that, as MRC reported earlier, Kirishinefteorgsintez remained its PS prices for February at the level of January.
