Honeywell Strengthens ENTIS Tank Inventory System with New Features and Capabilities
Honeywell today announced new capabilities that further improve integration and security, and enable compliant, reliable and accurate tank inventory operations for oil storage terminal operations. Built on the proven Experion® advanced automation platform, the ENTIS Inventory System uses the latest tank management and custody transfer technologies to reduce inventory uncertainty, increase efficiency and mitigate risks. Designed for intuitive and easy-to-use operations, ENTIS helps operators manage against product losses and focus on safety.
The new capabilities of the ENTIS inventory system include:
- Real-time visualization of tank inventory calculations in compliance with the American Petroleum Institute (API) and the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM)
- Legal metrology certification for custody transfer, accounting and reporting
- Intuitive alarms and event management to protect personnel and assets
- High availability leveraging redundant Communication Interface Units (CIU) and ENTIS redundancy
- Real-time and historical trend data enabling operators to check tank usage quickly and easily
- Customization of reporting formats, including inventory, tank detail and audit trails
- Automation of routine tasks, such as scheduling gauge commands and reports
“Unlike traditional tank inventory systems, which are complicated to operate, difficult to integrate and non-redundant, ENTIS has long served as the class benchmark for tank inventory systems, helping users reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve profitability,” said Bob Ell, global marketing director, Oil & Gas, Honeywell Process Solutions. “These upgrades provide versatility for refining, terminal operators, including chemical companies that require accurate, compliant inventory data to run their tank farms not only safely but also efficiently.”
Also, ENTIS offers secure remote monitoring capabilities with a subscription-based business model which enables access to tank gauging information anytime, everywhere.
