Cuando los plazos son la prioridad del cliente
Perspectivas
-
En algunos proyectos, el principal desafío no es la complejidad técnica, sino los plazos. Cuando los plazos se vuelven críticos, los equipos de ingeniería deben cambiar su enfoque: anticipar decisiones, aceptar la incertidumbre y apoyarse en un desempeño compartido. En este contexto, la ingeniería pasa a ser un proceso de toma de decisiones, equilibrio entre compromisos y gestión de riesgos, tanto técnicos como humanos. A continuación, Hugo Careau, P.Eng., Descarbonización, y Ulric Chayer, P.Eng., gerente de departamento, ingeniería mecánica, abordan tres preguntas clave.

At some stage in its lifetime, a purely economic decision will have to be made as to whether to refurbish or simply replace the transformer. Before refurbishing the transformer, it is best to be well prepared.Fluid-filled transformer refurbishment: points to monitor -

03 mar 2021Energía Eléctrica y RenovablesMany operators are not prepared for the changing cyber threats commonly encountered today. Unlike IT systems that can be easily refreshed and patched, industrial control system (ICS) assets face other unique challenges and solutions. Assessments for cyber risks of enterprise IT environments are relatively mature and many industry standards can be used. Unfortunately, cyber risk assessments for ICS environments are still far from maturity. Many companies are unfamiliar with the cyber-related vulnerabilities, threats and risks to their field operations.Industrial control system (ICS) cybersecurity risk methodology webinar

Indeed, exciters are responsible for providing stable voltage levels and proper reactive power management, but also ensure adequate transient response to network perturbations (inrush, faults, etc.), in combination with speed regulation systems (governors).Excitation system upgrades: make the right choice!

09 dic 2020Energía Eléctrica y RenovablesWe all have experienced browsing the internet at home when the connection speed has slowed to a crawl. This might be because your child has started a session of World of Warcraft or your spouse, or even the neighbor down the street, is streaming a movie. They have taken over all available bandwidth, leaving you waiting and wondering how long it will take to update your web page. Now imagine if this scenario were to happen on an industrial control system at a substation, a refinery or even a nuclear power plant. The results could be disastrous.Segmenting a network for increased reliability and security

Analysis methods such as predetermined percentages as a function of estimate maturity or study phase, deterministic calculation, expert judgment and probabilistic models can be used, but no matter which one is used, the proposed contingency amount is often understated and fails to stand up to third-party scrutiny.The purpose and importance of a contingency analysis
