Dynamic simulation solves process control problem in Oman. Anon. OGJ, 16 November 1998, 96(46), 68, 69.

Attention is drawn to the way in which a dynamic simulation study solved the process control problems for a Saih Rawl, Oman, gas compressor station. Persistant compressor failure caused frequent facility shutdowns, oil production deferment, and gas flaring. The control philosophy was simplified and the master controller was limited to fast-acting devices only, with the slow-acting devices decoupled. Illustrative figures show and compare the original and revised control systems.
