Infrastructure

Siemens infrastructure solutions provide the power and communications backbone ensuring safe and reliable operation of the entire pipeline system.

Siemens power transmission and distribution equipment covers a wide range of supply-voltage levels and is designed for ultimate performance under any ambient conditions, including extremely high and low temperatures, high altitudes and special environments such as highly corrosive atmospheres.

Integrating a host of communications technologies, Siemens’ telecommunications solutions provide dependable coverage along the whole pipeline, including communications with maintenance personnel, among compressor stations, and air-to-ground communication. In order to reduce installation downtimes, Siemens telecommunications solutions can be integrated into the SCADA system.

What’s more, Siemens offers the most comprehensive set of security solutions, not only for enclosed pipeline infrastructure such as main control centers, pump stations and valve stations, but also for the pipe itself. This includes the provision of intruder-detection systems protecting both pipeline and personnel, ensuring continuous accidentfree production.

Balance-of-plant equipment provides effective protection to automation, communication and electrical systems to ensure maximum availability.
