Emerson Process Management bagged HSE Product/Application of the Year for its Rosemount Guided Wave Radar Verification Service.
This prestigious accolade was designed to recognise technical ingenuity in making oil & gas operations safer and with minimum impact on the environment.
“There’s a lot of risks and hard work in developing new technology solutions that make our customers’ lives easier and safer, and it is rewarding that Emerson is recognised for the risks that it took and the innovation that it developed,” said Cor Corbeek, general manager for Emerson Process Management in the UAE, Oman, Egypt, Yemen and Lebanon.
He continued: “I think what appealed to the judges was our clear focus on solving one big challenge, and that is increasing personnel safety while making level instrument verification quicker, more accurate and safer.
“With the Rosemount Guided Wave Radar Verification Service, plant operators don’t have to send their personnel to climb to the top of the tank, open an access port, and take readings manually.
“The service can verify the level instrument performance across full range without breaking the tank’s seal.”
‘Highly Commended’ in this category went to Duraseal from Honeywell Process Solutions.
The technology received praise for having “safeguards that help oil and gas companies increase the level of workforce safety and prevent accidents and labour injuries.”
Sri Ram, director from Betec CAD, category sponsor of this year’s event, presented the award on stage.
