Automatic operation
The screen ranker and band speeds are controlled on
the water level difference over the primary and
secondary screens, and on a timer signal, in this
mode. The screens go into low speed operation on
reaching a pre-set low value of level difference (L1)
of the water upstream and downstream the screen.
When the level difference over the primary and
secondary screens is exceeding a pre-set high value
of level difference (L2), the screens start operating on
high speed.
At values lower than water level difference value L1,
the screens are stopped. In this situation, a timer will
control the operation. After a certain elapsed time,
the screens start operating on low speed. Both
operation time and time delay are adjustable.
Normal operation
Three screening bays are normally in operation. Each
screening bay can be isolated and emptied for
maintenance purposes. A minimum of two bays is in
operation.
Manual operation
Each screen can be started and stopped by pushing
the start/stop button locally as well as in the SWI
control room.

A. Operator facilities
Display stations present information to operators in both
graphical and tabular forms, integrating information from
other sources such as refinery DCS, packages etc. as required
in a uniform manner. Two operator stations are designed for
control and monitoring of SWI plant in control room.
Information processing facilities included such as following:
1) Printing of alarm/event logs, reports screen
dumps etc.
2) Alarm annunciation and logging;
3) Control interaction;
4) Event logging.
5) System status indication.
Operator console is designed to take into consideration
the housing of other operational needs such as telephones,
public address microphones and related miscellaneous items.
Simulation and test facilities is provided, which enable an
authorized operator to isolate, test and calibrate sensor loops.
Override and inhibit facilities is provided as required and is
enabled via dedicated displays on the control system work
stations in strict accordance with permit-to-work procedures.
Activation of overrides or inhibits is logged and annunciated
at these work stations.
The Operator station software server interfaces with the
plant through the Automation system using Modbus plus
Protocol via Interface PIC card which has been installed in
Industrial PC (Operator Station). A process data table has
been produced which listed PLC variables (shows process
variables with PLC addresses and read/write status), HIM
(Human Machine Interface) software variable tags (shows
units and ranges of variables) and display of variables (shows
how each variable will be displayed).
B. Designed Graphic Displays
Process was presented to operators through HIM screens
(graphic pages) and operators navigate through graphic pages
by using the keyboard and mouse. Figure 1. shows pages
270
1) Menu Page:
The menu page feather buttons to display all pages such
as process pages, trend pages, log in log out the Operator
station, etc. However graphic pages are linked together, so
operators can move easily between pages without needing to
redisplay the menu page.
2) Process Displays:
In design specification document, we defined all objects
with their characteristics in graphic pages according to P&ID
drawings and end user requirements. We have several
process displays for operators. The main pages are as
follows:
Seawater Pumps phase 1
Seawater Pumps phase 2&3
SW Distribution & Manifold Phase 1
SW Distribution & Manifold Phase 2&3
Screening plant
Chlorination
Fire water Pump
4) Trend pages:
A trend graph will display changes in different variables
such as PT, FT& LT on the line. Variables, which must be
271
8) Legend page:
This page will define the useful information for new
operators and define any objects and colors which used in
monitoring software.
IV.
5) Alarm page:
Equipment that often has fault conditions are trigger
alarms, for example any faults on pumps and filters. Alarms
are displayed on a separate page. A summary of alarms is
logged to a file and displayed on the alarm summary page.
Analog alarms are triggered depending on the value of the
variable and definition of HH, H, L and LL status of variable
which we assign during configuration. Digital alarms are
triggered when Fault signals of pumps and filters are
activated and also when the filters were off but output
manifold valves were open.
6) Report pages:
A report will be run on operator request and logging for
example Pumps status, PT and LT values to a file and
operator can view report page by selecting button on the
menu page.
7) Security principle:
The operator will enter a password and could monitor all
plant and acknowledge alarms. We classified users as either
operators or supervisors, with access to a subset of
commands by the use of passwords and user privileges. The
supervisor could access to system commands for example
on/off pumps, filters. The plant will be split into two distinct
areas:
