Always in control
Streamline and optimize terminal operations
Our terminal management solution is designed to streamline and optimize terminal operations, ensuring you are always in control. We offer comprehensive solutions across various platforms, including PLC systems from Rockwell and Siemens, utilizing TIA and PCS7. Redundancy and safety are integral to our systems, ensuring reliable and secure operations. For control and visualization, we use FTView and WinCC. On these, we provide the real-time data on the terminal activities, such as tank levels, visibility of loading racks, equipment status, routings, etc. Automated routings and loading operations reduce the need for manual intervention and minimize errors.
Why MOM in the tank terminal industry?
The platform is fully interoperable with our MOM system. In this setup, throughput is optimized by scheduling and queuing operations. Delays eliminated and resource utilization maximized.
Our Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM) system, CPMS, offers significant benefits for tank terminals by optimizing and integrating various operational processes:
- Integrated process control: Centralized management improves coordination and reduces errors.
- Instructions and task management: Real-time instructions and task prioritization.
- Communication: Alerts for deviations or urgent situations.
- Real-time data and analysis: Continuous monitoring enhances reliability and safety.
- Improved safety and compliance: Automatic reporting of critical deviations.
- Efficiency and cost savings: Optimized processes reduce waste and increase profitability.
- Optimal planning and scheduling: Efficient resource use and reduced wait times.
- Enhanced customer service: Real-time insights improve responsiveness.
- Traceability and reporting: Full traceability ensures quality and compliance.
- Flexibility and scalability: Adaptable and scalable for future growth.
Cases
New refuelling park
Contec was tasked with designing and supplying the electrical and automation systems for a new tank farm dedicated to acid storage. The acid product is unloaded from barges and loaded onto transport HGVs and ships. There was a strong emphasis on safety.
