This success story focuses mainly on the Operations Management solution.Jurong Island, Singapore Combined heat and power (CHP)implementing Yokogawa’s Operations Management Retrieving information from handwritten operation logbooks was tedious and time-consuming, and shift personnel had to access multiple systems to collect information such as critical DCS parameters in order to prepare the shift reports required for handover. The entire process was manual, took a lot of time to complete, and was prone to human error. The paper-based work instructions were also not always up to date, so operators would have to make assumptions when deciding what to do. In addition, the reliance on paper documentation made it difficult to share and pass on knowledge about plant operations.Plant InformationExecutive SummaryRecognized as one of the top three players in the Singapore power sector, Tuas Power is a fully owned subsidiary of Huaneng Power International and a member of the power giant China Huaneng Group.
