OIL REFINERY

3.  Supervisory Control & Data Acquisition i.e.
SCADA is used in oil & gas refineries & other
industries .
 In refineries, it consists of crude oil storage
unit, crude oil pre-treatment unit, distillation
unit & product storage / dispatch unit .
Introduction

4. Previously in refineries , the conventional
control systems were used in which the time
required to fetch data was difficult , delayed ,
human errors & unsafe .
With the help of SCADA , we can eliminate
the above factors .
Problem Statement

5. Need For SCADA
•SCADA gives real – time automatic
management & control of oil refinery
processes in order to avoid man-
power wastage , physical resources &
to increase the safety of workers .

6. It is a system that operates with
coded signals over communication
channel to provide control of
remote equipments .
