Emerson adds liquids proving and batch management to DeltaV FB3000 RTU
- The DeltaV FB3000 RTU now includes proving and batch management functionality for liquids.
- The platform is designed to standardize gas and liquids operations across pipelines, terminals, storage facilities and production assets.
- Its Advanced Pulse Module supports measurement integrity and streamlined operational workflows.
- A Zero Trust-centered, cybersecure-by-design architecture is intended to protect measurement data through custody transfer.
Expanded liquids capabilities
Emerson has added liquids automation, proving and batch management capabilities to its DeltaV FB3000 remote terminal unit (RTU). The platform brings measurement, control, communications and cybersecurity together for midstream hydrocarbon liquids operations.
Standardized operations
The RTU supports crude oil, refined petroleum products, diesel, liquefied petroleum gas, natural gas liquids, condensate, specialty chemicals and other liquid hydrocarbons. Operators can use a common architecture to standardize gas and liquids operations across pipelines, gathering systems, terminals, storage facilities and production assets.
Measurement and cybersecurity
The Advanced Pulse Module and proving and batch management functionality are intended to improve measurement integrity and streamline workflows. Its Zero Trust-centered, cybersecure-by-design architecture is designed to protect measurement data throughout the custody transfer lifecycle. Emerson says the scalable platform can support phased modernization and help reduce operational complexity and lifecycle costs.
