Paper Title
Automatic Control System Software for the Gas Pumping Unit with an Anti-Surge Algorithm based on Master SCADA
Abstract
Continuous gas transportation depends on the stable operation of GPU. However, this stability can be disrupted by
a surge. Fighting this phenomenon is a complex technological task that requires a detailed study of the gas pumping unit's
operation.
Interaction of the operator with the ACS GPU is carried out through the adopted "man-machine interface", which regulates the
order of the operations of preparation, start-up and control of GPU.
Thus, implemented software based on Master SCADA with an anti-surge algorithm, previously the algorithm was
implemented by a third-party device. The described ACS software implements the management of the technological process at
all stages and already used on real gas pumping station (GPS).
