As the country marks 10 years of the “Make in India” initiative, ABB’s System Integration Unit reports delivering 85% of the integrated analytical systems manufactured at the Bengaluru facility to international customers. 

 

Analytical systems were exported to countries such as Argentina and the UAE, with the team currently working on projects for Canada and Australia.

 

Integrated gas and liquid analyser systems play a critical role in ensuring the safety, reliability, and efficiency of production processes. These systems provide accurate measurements of various process gas and liquid components, enabling realtime monitoring of production streams and emissions. 

 

Optimising process control

This not only helps in detecting and mitigating potential hazards, but also in optimising process control, reducing operational costs, and minimising environmental impact. Additionally, by monitoring emissions and identifying inefficiencies in the production process, they aid in preventing environmental damage and ensuring optimal production.

 

“ABB is committed to helping customers across industries improve their efficiencies and performance, and we are increasingly able to do this from our base in India,” said Javier Suárez Díez, Global System Integration Manager at ABB. “Our team in Bengaluru combines extensive technology expertise with robust technical capabilities that make us competitive in the global analytical market.”

 

ABB provides analyser system integration with fully customised analytical systems and solutions from the initial engineering stage through to fabrication, testing, field startup, and onsite support. The analytical systems portfolio includes direct-read continuous gas analysers, online gas & liquid analysers utilising advanced laser analytical techniques, rapid response process gas chromatographs, and more.

 

ABB’s focus for India emphasises exploring business opportunities and delivering comprehensive analytical solutions both domestically and globally. 

 

Challenging applications

“The expertise we have developed in India effectively supports the most challenging applications in energy industries, both domestically and internationally,” added Díez. “We are happy to see that while we continue to grow in India, we can also serve our international customers out of India.”

 

In India, ABB has successfully delivered analyser solutions for prestigious projects, including a major   petrochemical complex as well as projects with several state-owned oil and gas enterprises.

 

For over 40 years, ABB has provided fully customised industrial process and gas analyser systems to some of the largest oil and gas development projects in the world, from the Texas Gulf Coast to Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf. In addition to Bengaluru, ABB operates gas analyser integration facilities in Dammam in Saudi Arabia, Shanghai in China and Houston in the US.

 

Recently, ABB received the Distributor of the Year award for the work of its System Integration Unit at the Instrumentation Excellence Awards in London, UK. The recognition was given for exceptional customer service in an area that is crucial for the energy transition – industrial process and gas analysis.--TradeArabia News Service
