The document describes a test stand developed at Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas to test control systems for oil and gas facilities. The test stand uses a simulation model to mimic the behavior of real equipment. This allows control systems to be tested and debugged before implementation at a site. Using the test stand can decrease commissioning time and accidents by identifying issues early. It also improves control system performance and lowers costs by optimizing implementation. The test stand manages simulation scripts and generates reports to verify control system algorithms.
