Emerson has been selected by Enagás, Spain’s national gas grid operator, to provide digital management solutions to support the stability and security of the country’s energy supply.
According to the automation solutions provider, Enagás is using its AspenTech Digital Grid Management solutions to manage and enhance Spain's gas transmission network.
These technologies are being employed to monitor and optimise the 11,000km pipeline system.
AspenTech is a wholly owned subsidiary of Emerson.
Emerson said that Enagás is utilising the AspenTech OSI monarch SCADA and OSI Continua Pipeline Management tools for network supervision.
The company stated that these systems enable real-time energy calculations, gas tracking, and proactive response to potential hazards such as overpressure and ruptures.
Emerson also indicated that its solutions are assisting Enagás in integrating renewable gases such as biomethane and hydrogen into the existing network infrastructure. The deployment of these digital technologies supports Enagás’ goal of maintaining a secure and compliant natural gas service and meeting evolving business and regulatory requirements.
The AspenTech cloud-hosted SCADA solution is designed to improve system maintenance, strengthen cybersecurity measures and enhance overall utility operations. The implementation of these technologies is part of Enagás' broader strategy focused on energy reliability and decarbonisation.
Emerson’s Aspen Technology digital grid management general manager Stuart Harris said: “Industry leaders like Enagás recognise the importance of digital technology in achieving more resilient and efficient utility operations.
“Our digital grid management solutions provide Enagás with full visibility across its mission-critical systems, in addition to the comprehensive insights needed to support the region’s natural gas supply well into the future.”
