Trans Adriatic Pipeline AG (TAP) has selected Italy’s Honeywell SRL for the engineering, procurement and installation of its supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) telecommunications and security systems.
The scope of work includes system detail engineering, graphic interface development, block valve station (BVS) controls, security and telecommunications systems. The SCADA and security system will provide integrated, centralised and seamless monitoring and control along the entire 878 km gas transportation system.
All data will be transmitted back to the supervisory control centre in the pipeline receiving terminal (PRT) in southern Italy.
Ian Bradshaw, Managing Director at TAP, said: “With this appointment, TAP has completed the award of all major strategic contracts for pipeline construction. I want to congratulate Honeywell for its successful bid and thank all the companies who participated in this tender round. The SCADA telecommunications and security system is a key piece of equipment which will ensure safe and effective pipeline operations.”
In 2016, TAP has awarded contracts for onshore construction for the Albanian and Greek pipeline section (March 2016), offshore construction and offshore line pipes (April 2016), compressor stations (May 2016), as well as fibre optic cable (June 2016).
