Equinor Oseberg platform

The original Flexitrend FT100 control system was installed in 1986, then upgraded in 2000 under the Cooper/EnTronic umbrella. Now the HC-CORE3 control system replaced the FT100 and all has been performed by the same Hengelo-based team.

We have achieved a number of firsts for Holland-Controls in this project:

• First RB211 driven compressor controls upgrade to the new HC-CORE3 platform (adding to the countless the team has installed since HC was founded in 2005);
• First turbine driving three separate compressor bundles. The HC developed anti-surge controllers are seamlessly integrated into our HC-CORE3 software platform;
• Newly developed HMI visualisation system using the latest available Aveva InTouch software.

Lead engineers for this project were Frank de Vries and William Birk.
