Invensys partners with a process safety decision-support solution

08 April 2011

Invensys has entered into a partnership agreement that sees it offering the ACM process safety decision-support software, Machu Picchu, to the global process industry.

The solution allows users to continuously track deviations between the plant’s designed risk profile and the actual operating risk profile in real-time. Using dashboard displays, plant operators can identify, mitigate, minimise and potentially eliminate process risks. The expanded solution capability is said to offer an enhancement to the Triconex safety software and systems.

The Machu Picchu decision-support tool provides visibility into process risks and combines knowledge of the plant’s risk parameters, diagnostic alarms and historical operator observations to monitor the integrity of all safeguards 24x7. It then calculates the level of risk caused by a deviation and provides operators a set of pre-engineered contingency plans or detailed instructions on how to address abnormal situations.
