DOPET – PI Tags and Graphics RTIS/POIS ModificationAs part of the EPC scope for the Barzan ISBL – LPG Bottling Plant Project, EMI was partnered withPetrotec/DOPET to support QatarEnergy LNG in enhancing their PI System infrastructure. The primary objective was to integrate new process data streams into the existing system and update PI Vision graphics to reflect the latest plant modifications. This required meticulous planning to ensure seamless integration without disrupting ongoing operations. |
EMI initiated the work by aligning with stakeholders through a kickoff meeting, followed by the development of a detailed Method Statement and Functional Design Specification (FDS). The offsite phase included preparing configurations for 50 new PI tags and modifying five PI Vision graphic displays based on updated process inputs. Once deployed onsite, the new tags were integrated using existing PI Interfaces, with full data validation and SAT performed to confirm real-time data visibility. Final documentation was delivered to meet QatarEnergy LNG’s compliance and traceability standards.
