Benefits

Effective operation requires agile response to unanticipated changes
“Best of breed” application interfacing is not enough
Systems must be vertically integrated from the data center to real-time controller sensors
Handle complicated situation that the diversity of terminals across countries, industries, companies and division.

Beside Oil & Gas sector that has an important role in Terminal storage we can see that storage products cover other markets no less important e.g., chemical products, beverage, etc. Commonly storage terminals were manually operated but with new technology available nowadays it is possible to increase efficiency, safety and security during the operation process while reducing risk and costs.

Traditional process control and automation applications have not been designed for the functionality and high-volume transaction processing capability required by distribution. While ABB's TMS (Terminal Management System) denominated T-MAC Plus was created ground up with requirements of distribution enterprise in mind.

ABB's Center of Excellence for Terminal Automation located in Madrid offers a solution for TMS supported over System 800xA platform. It handles product receipt, storage and dispatch, and integrates with business systems. It was specifically designed for managing bulk plants (e.g. crude oil terminals) for primary distribution or oil, gas and chemical product distribution terminals (secondary distribution) in the most efficient way and keeping the terminal operating costs to a minimum.

As terminal automation contributes to operational success in safety and efficiency mode by increasing profitability, service support has become one of our strengths considering our worldwide presence.
