Customer story – Reference
Norske Shell – Draugen platform
Location: Draugen
Period: 2014–2015
Customer: Aibel, Kristiansund
Application: Level measurement
The service life of process instrumentation is often extended, but eventually one reaches a point where spare parts are no longer available. This was the case on the Draugen platform, which began production in 1993.
A total of 32 transmitters, which incorporated several different level measurement technologies, were replaced with Magnetrol displacers/standpipes and guided-wave transmitters.
Due to the limited availability of replacement parts, a malfunction could result in an unplanned shutdown, with all the consequences that entails.
