"Alarm systems are the primary support tool for the operator for warning and handling of abnormal situations, and are thus an important barrier element in preventing unwanted conditions from developing into accidents. The Petroleum Safety Authority sees it as important that the companies follow up and monitor the condition of these systems properly."

Find out how RIVOPS can improve your alarm philosophy.

Keep a safe control over your offshore operations. Improve the awareness of the operator.

RIVOPS is an alarm & event console for Oil & Gas integrated operations.

The RIVOPS layer is deployed on the top of the distributed control system -DCS- of a control room installation. Once plugged into the control system, this technology acts as an enhanced display mechnism for alarm handling. Alarms are compacted into groups to factorize the information presented to the operator. The operator is provided with the full picture of the installation combining the engineering 3D models with the real-time telemetry. This solution improves the awareness of the control room operator.
