ABB India on said that 74 tea gardens in Assam as well as six big industrial customers have upgraded to first-of-its-kind ABB igital gas control systems. ABB’s supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA)-based solution monitors and controls gas flow across tea estates and select industrial customers, across six districts of upper Assam, ABB India said in a statement.
The project was awarded by Assam Gas Company Limited (AGCL) and will be undertaken in two phases to cover 399 tea estates and six large industrial customers.
As the state utility works towards building a sustainable gas distribution system, one of the major issues AGCL faced with was the optimisation of gas flow along its extensive pipeline network ensuring gas availability per pre-defined limit even to the last-mile consumer.
