Dear DMS Members, Last edition I spoke of reducing costs by outsourcing services that would include the technology of choice of the service provider rather than end-user since their human resources would be using the equipment to deliver optimal efficiency and cost reductions. I would hazard a guess that the service provider would introduce state-of-theart technologies to help reduce their costs since much of their return business would rely on being able to offer best-in-class performance coupled with lowest costs to ensure competitive bids going forward. Since remote diagnostics is a great way to provide cost efficient and, when combined with big data analytics, better decision-making and better products due to more efficient actual application behaviour feedback to OEMs, Cloud technology and cyber-security come to the forefront. Many end-users in this region are worried about the security of their networks if linked to the Cloud. Rightly or wrongly, the fact remains that big data analytics will require Cloud computing as the most efficient way of analysing data from similar applications from all over the world to make better, more informed decisions with a greater number of application examples collected leading to better troubleshooting and decision-making. So, we need to embrace Industry 4.0 or the Industrial Internet of Things if we are going to benefit from such technologies and this requires greater use of remote diagnostics and Cloud computing to provide medium-term and longterm decisions that will ensure better efficiency going forward. In this scenario Edge computers will make more pressing short-term decisions requiring a rapid response like shutting down a plant due to an erroneous transient whilst Cloud computers will be used for asset management by way of condition monitoring. The bottom line is that we need to help the end-users establish cyber-security models that allow them to benefit from such centralised asset management whilst providing the cyber protection required to make sure they are not held to ransom by cyber terrorists. Closing thought; Why do many of us trust our banks to protect our data but wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dream of trusting a supplier with our employerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s data when said supplier uses the same Cloud technologies often via Microsoft, Amazon or Google who spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on making sure they are secure? Kind Regards,

Kind Regards,

Malaysia: Downstream Industry Growth The rapid growth of Malaysia’s petrochemical industry is mainly related to the availability of oil and gas as feedstock, developed infrastructure, strong base of supporting services, and the country’s cost competitiveness. Malaysia’s strategic location within ASEAN countries and its closeness to major markets in the Far East also plays important roles in the industry growth.

China sea. The total refining capacity is expected to reach 300,000 bpd, while additional petrochemical plants will generate 7.7 million tpy. The refinery is planned to produce gasoline and diesel that will meet Euro 4 and Euro 5 standards. The petrochemical complex is expected to produce highly specialised chemicals and the feedstock will be supplied by the refinery.

Launched in March 22, the Refinery and Petrochemical Integrated Development (RAPID) is the largest integral greenfield downstream project for Petronas and Malaysia’s government.The feasibility study for the project was completed in October 2011 and the site preparation began in October 2012.

Petronas is spending much of its capital expenditure on RAPID whose investment involves $16 billion, while associated facilities are estimated to cost $11 billion. The final investment decision (FID) was made in April 2014.

RAPID is a part of Petronas’ Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC), which also includes six other associated facilities. RAPID will cover approximately 7,000 acre and is close to the international shipping bay, connecting Melacca Strait, Singapore and the South

The operations at the refinery is scheduled to commence in 2019 and petrochemical operations are expected to begin 6-12 months afterwards. Once completed, the project will be Asia’s largest downstream hub.

BP Berau - Tangguh LNG Expansion Estimated at $13 billion and located in Papua Barat Province, the expansion of the Tangguh LNG is one of the most significant oil and gas projects worldwide. BP Berau is the operator of the project. In 2012, the Indonesian government approved the expansion plan for the LNG plant to help meet the growing demand for energy with the majority to be supplied to the state electricity company. BP has signed a financial agreement with national and international banks to fund the project. Japan Bank for International Cooperation is providing the financing for the project along with Nippon Export and Investment Insurance, Asian Development Bank has provided a $400 million loan to help expand the project with plans to construct a third liquefied natural gas (LNG) train in order to increase the plant’s existing production capacity. The plant currently comprises of onshore and offshore production trains with a maximum output of 7.6 million tons of LNG a year and hopes to boost it up to 11.4 million tons per annum (tpa) once the expansion has been completed. The onshore expansion development will comprise of an LNG dock, storage tanks and public amenities that will enhance the productivity of the project. The offshore expansion will include new platforms, pipelines, and development wells. The Indonesian government is currently gathering additional funds for the successful execution of its plans. ABB has been selected by CSTS consortium

Keppel Infrastructure - Jurong Gasification Facility Keppel Infrastructure Holdings Pte Ltd (Keppel Infrastructure) inked an agreement with the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) to develop, own and operate a top of the line gasification facility on Jurong Island, Singapore.As part of the Jurong Island’s v2.0 initiative, EDB’s competitive selection process is marked by the agreement.

While concerns on Singapore’s carbon tax might lead to either higher electricity prices for consumers or more investment in energy efficient assets, the facility will be taxed accordingly to its carbon emission footprint. The more significant it is, the heavier the tax penalty will be, hence justifying carbon capture and storage technologies.

The Jurong Gasification facility is expected to produce industrial gases such as syngas, hydrogen, etc from other potential feedstock which includes (but not limited to) refinery by-products.

In order for the Jurong Gasification Facility to proceed accordingly with its development, securing the agreement is a vital process required in preparation for the Final Investment Decision (FID), which is slated on a later date.

Keppel officials stated that as the refineries produce low sulphur compliant fuel, there will be an increased demand for hydrogen from current and future customers. As a requirement by the International Maritime Organization, all ships are required to comply the with the reduced sulphur emission limit by the start of 2020.

In May 2017, Keppel continued to develop feedstock options to enhance the long term synergy of the project with the energy and chemicals sector.Currently, the Jurong Gasification Facility has yet to announce a set date on when it expects the FID on the project.

The largest money saving application within a refinery is in the Crude Unit! Use real-time monitoring with RAMAN Technology to optimize diesel production! Using Real-time monitoring via Raman Technolgy can: • Optimize Cloud Point Window – Drop window by 2°F • Optimize 90% Cut Point – Increase by 2°F

630 S. Komas Drive #310

• Optimize Flash Point – Increase by 2° Result, blend more heavy Naphtha into diesel product, produce less vacuum oil products. Customer’s Estimated Savings: $1,000,000 / month based on blending 40,000 bpd of diesel

FieldComm Group Meets with UAE based Vendors/ Users over Technology Marketing Needs FieldComm Group met with UAE based vendors and users to discuss about the marketing needs for their various technologies and to review the programs proposed for the first FieldComm Day – UAE The meeting started off with Paul Sereiko giving a short over view presentation of FieldComm Group to establish a foundational understanding among those present. Mohammed Loch asked each attendee present, to comment on their experiences with the various technologies on offer as well as their opinions on what FieldComm could offer to enhance use of their technologies. HART Communication Protocol seems to be the most popular FieldComm technology in use. Almost all the attendees were using it at least for configuration and commissioning, while some are using it in full digital and this seems to be in the upswing. Foundation Fieldbus was being used by some, but not for control in the field because of an underlying concern of a perceived technology risk. Some of the attendees were using WirelessHART while there were others who chose to not use it at all. None of the users were aware of either the FDI or the APL and while most suppliers were aware of APL, only a few of the suppliers were aware of APL. There was a general agreement between all the attendees on that, although they were using all these technologies, they were not using them to their full potential. The only concerns put forward and that too by a few, were that of “old technology” and a few other perceived negatives. Predictive maintenance was a major point of discussion as a lot of the attendees recognized that HART helped them out a lot on the issue and wanted to use it more. This consequently led to a lot of the attendees suggesting to include the topic, “Using HART for Predictive Maintenance” for the FieldComm Day event. Another point brought up by a vendor was that ProfiBus had a local support center and it would benefit the users of the various technologies provided by FieldComm to have a local 6 Automation

support center for them too. A third suggestion was to provide direct end-user training to the actual endusers rather than having sales engineer trained to provide training to the customer engineering manager who in turn has to train the actual end-users. The representative from Endress+Hauser asked about what FieldComm Group could do to aid in the integration processes, implying on the training and proper use of FDI features. The Schneider representative then pointed out the need to inform users of the optimization in control room real estate that could be achieved with Foundation Fieldbus. Features like “Notes” and “Calculators” could come in handy. All of the attendees, both users and vendors, were quick to agree on the fact that more vendor-neutral training was needed. After discussing about the technology marketing, the meeting moved on to review the proposed program for the first FieldComm Day – UAE. All present seemed to agree to the content proposed for the program with no negative opinions regarding the program. The interest in attending the event seemed positively high with each attendee suggesting that at least 10 members from their company/division would be interested in attending the event. To summarize the meeting, there was wide agreement over the fact that more technology training was needed to improve full usage of FieldComm Group technologies; the vendors were in full support of the need to market FieldComm technologies more in the Middle East and a few even committed to making this recommendation to their management; The FieldComm Day – UAE was given the “Go Ahead!” approval by all present. The meeting concluded with Mohammed Loch deciding to convene a separate meeting with vendors to get participation commitment and to iron out the event details and also to align responsibilities to aid in the execution of the next steps as decided in the meeting.

DIGITALIZATION

FieldComm Group: IIoT-based Digitalization: Taking Automation to the Next Level With the rise of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industry 4.0, device and system integration are paramount to seamless operation of manufacturing facilities. Industrial organizations are seeking secure and proven technologies to drive IIoT-based digitization and move field data into the cloud via open platform solutions.The following article describes how leading automation industry stakeholders are advancing open information integration and enterprise data exchange in the new era of automation. Introduction The IIoT and Industry 4.0 are everywhere, and they’re redefining manufacturing with an unprecedented level of impact. While the interoperability of IIoTbased devices and systems will no doubt be subject of ongoing discussion, there are already wellestablished standards in industrial and manufacturing environments that can accelerate the shift to outcomebased models. One of today’s biggest challenges is the sheer number of different devices and applications that exist from legacy systems all the way through modern industrial assets. Automation suppliers are struggling to address the IIoT, and doing so, develop products and solutions enabling customers to have all their data and information in a multi-vendor, multiplatform environment. Organizations like NAMUR, the German chemical industry association, have long focused on asset management and standardized device configuration in a multi-vendor environment. Standardization of devices, including their data and metadata, not only makes configuration easier, but also solves the complex problem of training new plant operators. Changing Industry Outlook With the traditional separation of the Information Technology (IT) and Operations Technology (OT) worlds, industrial organizations have been prevented from sharing key information between the two realms. Despite the growing convergence of IT and OT, however, end-users really don’t want all the raw data from devices in the OT world to be placed in IT systems. There is a current trend whereby intelligent decisions are made about plant assets and process automation with the assistance of enterprise tools. Common tasks such as preventative maintenance and tracking information to know when machinery needs repair can increase efficiency and lower the cost of operations. By having the right information, personnel can anticipate problems long before they occur and take appropriate corrective actions to keep the plant up and running.

Need for Open Integration Standards organizations that understand the requirements of IIoT and Industry 4.0 are working together to promote data interchange across the enterprise – something essential to help enable a fully digital industrial economy. The goal is to standardize on the structure that provides secure, reliable information integration and interoperability between two traditionally separated information realms (IT and OT). For example, FieldComm Group, which is responsible for ongoing development of FDI™ (Field Device Integration) technology, an internationally standardized solution for process automation device and systems integration, has collaborated with the OPC Foundation to include several OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) specifications that define field devices and field device integration in the context of the FDI solution. The two standards share the same information model that defines the context of field devices in process automation. The goal is to ensure that as systems evolve an open pathway to field device information is assured. FDI is a visionary technology that dramatically simplifies software installation, configuration, maintenance, and management of field instruments and host systems. It meets the demand for a universal, standardized and interoperable technique to comprehensively describe automation components. The standard is vital for everyday purposes ranging from device configuration, device replacement and maintenance, to diagnostics and audit trails – all essential building blocks in a modern field device management system. At the same time, FDI enables greater compatibility of Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL)-based networks such as HART and FOUNDATION Fieldbus, allowing these and other networks to be more easily integrated with each other. It also allows EDDL-based systems to be integrated into a host of other industrial networks. The core of FDI technology is the scalable FDI Device Package, which describes a field instrument or automation component in all aspects. The FDI Device Package incorporates a device specific Electronic Device Description (EDD) based on the harmonized EDDL per IEC 61804. The value of FDI is especially realized by end-users, in that devices across the spectrum of industrial standards can be engineered and maintained with a common systemand device-independent set of tools. Driving Digital Transformation By delivering meaningful information where and when it is needed most across the enterprise, IIoT and Industry 4.0 open up new possibilities for safety, productivity, organizational responsiveness and,

DIGITALIZATION ultimately, profitability. One of the key reasons for their growth and popularity has been open standards such as FOUNDATION Fieldbus and WirelessHART. Digital down to the sensor level, FOUNDATION Fieldbus has been at the forefront of digital transformation since its inception. The technology provides an all-digital communication infrastructure for process automation, with powerful multivariable measurement capabilities, robust device diagnostics, and the ability to integrate wireless devices across multiple networks. Its block structure is unique, enabling true distributed functionality, improved data management, and alarm and alert management. FOUNDATION Fieldbus takes automation to the next level by making control loops entirely digital from end-to-end – from transmitter to positioner –and by communicating multiple signals from multiple devices on the same pairs of wires. The technology also enables new, more powerful devices, including intelligent two-wire on/off devices with predictive diagnostics. These benefits also allow for greatly reduced cabling and physical footprint. Putting Technology to Work A growing number of automation end-users, system integrators and engineering firms are turning to FieldComm Group’s AG-181 System Engineering Guidelines for best practices and recommendations for a complete FOUNDATION fieldbus installation, from engineering and design through commissioning, startup, operations, and maintenance. The guide includes recommendations on topics from selecting cable to wiring installation, grounding, implementing plant asset management systems, and best practices for project management. First published in 2003, the AG-181 Guide includes sections covering the Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe Concept (FISCO) fieldbus design rules, cable length, surge protection, segment scheduling, and the use of existing instrument wiring. It offers many valuable pointers on how to execute fieldbus projects right the first time, and is an essential part of the toolbox of any FOUNDATION fieldbus professional. The AG-181 System Engineering Guidelines is separated into 11 sections, each covering different aspects of the fieldbus project lifecycle. Specific topics include: General Considerations, Fieldbus Definitions, Fieldbus Project Requirements, Host System Requirements, Software Configuration, Field Device Requirements, Segment Components, Network/ Segment Design Guidelines, Site Installation Guidelines, Acceptance Testing, and Documentation Requirements. In addition, the System Engineering Guidelines document provides accurate and current fieldbus information in a vendor-neutral format, and is revised periodically to reflect changes to FOUNDATION technology.

WirelessHART – Simple, Reliable. Secure. Another technology solution that is driving digital transformation enabling IIoT and Industry 4.0 information integration, is WirelessHART. WirelessHART is a wireless communications protocol for process automation applications. It adds wireless capabilities to millions of installed or new plant measurement and control devices. WirelessHART uses mesh networking technology. Each device in a mesh network can serve as a router for messages from other devices. In other words, a device doesn’t have to communicate directly to a gateway, but just forward its message to the next closest device. This extends the range of the network and provides redundant communication routes to increase reliability, particularly in the difficult radio environment found in process facilities. WirelessHART device and diagnostics information enable digital integration to cloud or enterprise-based information systems delivering valuable data where and when it is needed to improve operations, safety, productivity and profitability. Conclusion Proprietary solutions in industrial automation are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Industry stakeholders are no longer satisfied with products from different vendors not interoperating together in a seamless manner. This expectation now requires multivendor and multi-platform information integration from the sensor to the cloud. At the heart of IIoT and Industry 4.0 are technologies like FOUNDATION Fieldbus and WirelessHART, which help automation suppliers and end-users digitally connect to the data revealed by increasingly smart instrumentation, and then integrate the information with enterprise systems to advance business performance.

PROCESS ANALYZERS

AIMS: Analyzer Package Project, Challenges Flawless initiatives in Analyzer Package Project, another success story by AIMS The execution and completion of Analyzer Package project in timely manners without compromising the quality is a challenging task. It takes huge engineering work, a lot of resources, tremendous amount of experience and in-depth knowledge and skills on on-line analytical systems. It demands a multisystem & discipline EPC approach from one vendor which is difficult to attain and retain in challenging analytical business world. A recently executed, Yibal Khuff Project was one in the row triumph winning story of Analyzer Package Project successfully completely by PDO / Petrofac and AIMS. Total thirty four analyzers with eighteen Gas and sixteen Liquid applications, ten large sized walk-in air conditioned cabinet integrated with a full safety system installed was a huge project of its kind. Analyzer Management and Data Acquisition System (AMADAS) was fully developed and tested during FAT. More than 20 AIMS employees were awarded Appreciation Certificates and Bonuses for the dedication and high quality work demonstrated during the project execution. The Analyzer Package Project had usual inherited challenges during different stages and this paper tells the tale that how past experience helped addressing the issues flawlessly. Analyzer Cabinets: To protect analyzers from heat exposure in hot ambient temperature in the Arabian Desert, double skinned cabinets with fifty millimeter insulation were designed and fabricated in AIMS FAB shop. This was added to air hazardous area classified conditioning system.

Analyzer Cabinet Safety System: Gas direction system & warning strobe light was implemented to prevent accumulation of flammable gases in an event of sample leak inside the cabinet. Purging mechanism to initiate cabinet purge with air was also designed and applied to clear the cabinet from flammable gases to avoid fire incident.

Engineering Unit Discrepancies: The measuring unit of Wobbe Index analyzer, for example, was MJ/m3 whereas customer required Kcal/ m3. The engineering unit was modified to Kcal/m3. Analyzer Management and Data Acquisition System (AMADAS): Analyzer Management and Data Acquisition System was designed, implemented, configured and tested for gas chromatogram analyzers. MODBUS and OPC communication protocol were implemented over TCP/IP hardware. Inherent challenges of serial communication were overcome with a better design approach. Gas Detection Mapping: As location and placement of the Gas Detectors play a critical role in responsiveness of a gas detection system, mapping study was carried out for positioning the gas detectors inside the analyzer cabinets. Maintenance Accessibility & Convenience: Spacious walk-in Cabinets were designed and fabricated with the gas detection system to support maintenance team to carry out maintenance activities inconvenient environment. Quality Assurance and Control (QA/QC) Quality Assurance and Control was a main pillar of the project that assured & maintained superior quality of work in all EPC (Engineering Procurement Construction) stages.

PROCESS SAFETY

ARC: Trends in Process Safety Systems By Mark Sen Gupta, Principle Consultant, ARC Advisory Group

Market is Changing The global process safety systems market is changing in a rapid and dramatic way. Less industrialized countries continue efforts to grow their economies and build megaplants. These complexes will be interconnected and offer multiple complex product streams. There will be requirements to coordinate “in process” product flows and extend safety shutdown functionalities across multiple units and areas of these facilities. End users are demanding more information about the functioning and behaviors of their process safety systems, and they want them to be easier and more intuitive to access. Recognizing the need to become more cost-efficient to remain profitable in the changing global environment, many companies are adjusting their business practices to meet the challenges of the “new norm.” ARC is also seeing increased efforts to optimize existing operations for maximum availability (by minimizing spurious trips) and migrate/upgrade formerly grandfathered systems into a compliant process safety system. Today, proof of compliance is not only mandated, it can also provide benefits by reducing insurance costs.

locking and network monitoring software for internal automation system network traffic. Complicating the picture is the fact that many common IT network maintenance practices (such as automatic software update installation, anti-virus updates, and bug fixes) must be modified for the mission-critical, 24/7 industrial network environments in which SISs operate. “Integrated vs. Separate” Most leading process safety systems suppliers today also supply automation systems. Eight out of the top nine suppliers in this market offer a broad range of automation products. As the leading automation systems suppliers have entered the safety system business, customer preference appears to be shifting toward using a common supplier and – in some cases even similar platform technology for both control and safety systems. This approach offers the advantage of reducing engineering costs and project risk.

Cybersecurity Remains a Key Concern Cybersecurity is top-of-mind for many major SIS end users, especially after very costly cyber-attacks on major oil & gas and refining industry sites in the Middle East. The appearance of the Stuxnet malware in 2010 dramatically changed the general attitude toward cybersecurity for industrial automation systems and equipment. Stuxnet demonstrated that malware can be deployed by nation states as a weapon of war as well as by hackers. Such weapons may be extremely difficult to develop, but are also very difficult to trace to an individual, group, or country. They may also prove widely effective against “soft targets,” including relatively insecure industrial devices and systems. SIS suppliers are addressing the cybersecurity threat with active initiatives, either in-house, through partnerships, or both. Although integrating process automation systems (DCS) and process safety systems, or “safety integrated systems (SIS) – a growing trend in recent decades – may offer some advantages, many end users are carefully considering just “how integrated” they want their systems to be due to the fear of increased exposure to cybersecurity and other threats. Internal threats from disgruntled employees or other internal access points must also be addressed with techniques such as USB or Ethernet (physical) port

Yokogawa ProSafe-RS safety controller and smart, configurable safety I/O

However, both approaches have tradeoffs. While integrated DCS/SIS platforms can certainly help reduce overall project risk and offer potential cost savings related to reduced engineering, training, and spare parts requirements; proponents of separation would argue that this increases vulnerability to both cyberand physical security risks and opens the potential for common-cause failures. There are also varying degrees of “integration” to consider. For example, are the systems just integrated from an engineering, HMI and/or asset management perspective (very likely), or is there actual integration at the control logic level (not very likely)? Interestingly, based on current ARC research, the “neckin-neck” market leaders in the SIS space – Schneider Electric and Yokogawa, represent both ends of this spectrum. With its Triconex offering, Schneider Electric

TriconexTriconCXCompactSafetySystem

Expanding Scope of Supply More industry participants (owner-operators and suppliers alike) are expanding the main automation contractor (MAC) project concept to include the electrical equipment and systems. A few large global automation suppliers have the product portfolios and expertise to serve as both the main electrical contractor (MEC) and MAC, further reducing project engineering costs. The IEC 61850 standards, sometimes referred to as the “fieldbus for electrical,” help drive this trend. Automation suppliers with a strong electrical equipment presence benefit from (and drive) this trend at the expense of suppliers without this expertise. This trend is most evident in large greenfield projects. Regardless of the project scope, there is an increasing trend to look to a third party for safety consulting services. End users are losing the ability to provide these services in-house. These services extend beyond configuring and installing the safety system to pre-project work like determining the appropriate safety integrity levels (SILs), and after-project work like maintenance support, testing, and validation. New Competition Emerging Local technology suppliers in China, India, Brazil, and elsewhere have begun to develop solid SIS offerings that often appeal to local end users, particularly those without a global footprint. Many of the Chinese SIS suppliers, for example, are expanding their businesses to other parts of Asia. While these local technology suppliers do not yet represent global competition for the established SIS suppliers, this situation will likely change. Recognizing that many previous process safety system projects have failed, suppliers are adopting new technologies and standards to

58 Automation

| December 2017

improve process safety system project execution. Some of the key technological changes occurring in the market include a growing use of new I/O technologies, increasing adoption of standards, and increasing use of virtualization. The overarching goal of these changes is to make process safety systems easier to implement and maintain. Applications for virtualization are expanding. There has been significant technical progress in system virtualization, a critical technology that underlies and enables the cloud computing services we now take for granted. In the telecommunication industry, suppliers are now proposing that the dedicated function appliances located at the base of every cellular tower be virtualized. The appliances would thus be replaced by an on-premise cloud system that delivers realtime application services to serve these telecom applications. This strategy, called Network Function Virtualization (NFV), is now a hot topic in cellular telecommunications. The computing equipment used in NFV to virtualize real-time functions in telecommunications could also be used in industrial automation. Such equipment could potentially virtualize many of the applications now running in PLCs or even in redundant DCS controllers. While ARC does not expect the safety market to embrace virtualization of safety logic in the near future, over the long term, it’s possible that virtualization technologies will prove to be robust enough for this type of application. The market is also putting an increased focus on the entire safety lifecycle. More users are beginning to see that most of safety failures come from field devices connected to the safety system rather than the safety system logic itself. This understanding is driving more end users to demand safety lifecycle management software functionalities so they can not only operate their plants safer, but also prove it! ARC is also seeing greater emphasis on “demystifying” safety boxes. End users continue to seek to understand more about how their safety boxes work and look to automation suppliers to provide useful diagnostics software. Regulators are also getting more involved in the safety lifecycle. Rather than just springing into action after an accident has occurred, regulators are becoming more proactive by working with major end users to ensure that they comply with standards and demonstrate understanding of risks and corresponding safeguards to manage/mitigate identified risks before accidents can happen. However, much more still needs to be done to make industry aware of the risk and reduce both the frequency and severity of process safety-related incidents. Positive signs in this direction include the activities of the Chemical Centre for Process Safety sponsored by ADNOC in the Middle East, the Chemical Safety Board in the US, and the Health and Safety Executive in the UK. ARC has recently updated both its market research on this dynamic space for the supplier community and prepared an updated technology evaluation and selection guide for end users.

When a Dream Needs a Gentle Push to Give It Wings-Sponsored by Analytical Division Of ISA Growing up as the youngest child in a family of five, abandoned by your father, neglected by your elder brother and sister, with just your mother who is a day laborer in a physically unwell state of health and with the dreams of one day becoming a Chemistry Professor is really hard. This is exactly the condition of Mohammed Sajib Sheik, a 10 year old boy hailing from a slum in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Sajib’s father abandoned the family a long time ago. His elder brother and sister are both married and living their own happy lives while almost totally neglecting the existence of their own mother and brother. Sajib’s mother, Sofia Begum works as a day laborer to provide for herself and Sajib. But, because of being physically unwell, she isn’t able to go to work daily and so the responsibility of taking care of his mother and himself falls on the meek shoulders of young Sajib. He has to works after school, selling newspapers and water bottles to meet their needs. Like all other kids of his age, Sajib too loves playing cricket. He sings as well. But unlike every other kid whose role model might be a cricketer in this cricket crazy nation, Sajib’s role model is Alfred Bernhard Nobel, the world famous Swedish Chemist and founder of the Nobel Prizes, and hence his love for Chemistry. Once, at school, during a session of Science, the teacher was teaching about mixtures and it was a little above the understanding capabilities of a regular Sixth Grader, but Sajib easily understood the concepts and was given the opportunity to perform experiment in front of the whole class, and that too very successfully. He is passionate about his dreams to become a Chemistry professor one day and that is clearly reflected in his academics. But the only thing in his way to achieve that dream is the current situation he is in. No one to help him progress with his education, no one to guide him and help him plot his next steps 64 Automation

in education. And this is where C2C has come in to help him. C2C has taken Sajib under its wings and are supporting him by providing 1000BDT per month to help take care of their accommodation needs so that he can use the money he earns by himself to help complete his education and pursue his dreams of becoming a Chemistry Professor. C2C has a really good idea of how Sajib should carry on his education so as to achieve his dream. The Bangladeshi educational system is basically divided into 7 levels: •Pre-primary: Play School to Kindergarten •Primary: Grade 1 to Grade 5 •Junior School: Grade 6 to Grade 8 •Secondary School: Grade 9 to Grade 10 •Higher Secondary: Grade 11 and Grade 12 •Bachelor’s Degree: 4 years •Master’s Degree: 1 year According to the above given system, Sajib is now in Junior School and has a minimum of 9 years of education left to finally be able to achieve his dream. As per the Government curriculum, basic Science will be taught to all students from Grade 6 to Grade 8. From Grade 9, Science will be broken down into Physics, Chemistry and Biology. And it is also from Grade 9 that the education stream will be divided into Science, Arts and Commerce and this will be followed up until Grade 12. So, Sajib will have to opt for the Science stream from Grade 9 and then continue his education to attain a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry and then opt for a Master’s Degree in Chemistry to increase his chances of becoming a Chemistry Professor. Sajib is currently being sponsored by the Analysis Division of ISA. With a helping and guiding hand behind him, Sajib can easily achieve his dream and build a brighter future for himself and his family.
