Emerson Process Management and Lukoil Group have signed an agreement to modernise 13 refining and petrochemical facilities in Russia and Eastern Europe. Under the agreement, which extends through to 2014, Emerson will provide equipment, software, and services as part of Lukoil’s enterprise-wide strategy to modernise process automation at their oil and gas refineries, petrochemical plants, and related facilities.
Lukoil chose Emerson because of the two companies’ successful experience in co-operating on previous projects, as well as Emerson’s technologies and full scope of design, training, installation supervision, start-up, and commissioning services. The facilities being modernised will be upgraded to Emerson’s PlantWeb digital automation architecture with Smart Wireless technology. The architecture includes DeltaV digital automation systems, DeltaV SIS process safety systems, and AMS Suite predictive maintenance software, as well as Fisher control valves, Micro Motion Coriolis flow and density meters, and Rosemount measurement instruments.
