This paper discusses the Stingray Pipeline automated measurement and control system installed by Teledyne Geotech early in 1976. The system includes computer control and monitor of two Stingray natural gas compressor stations with a communications interface between the stations and the Stingray gas control center (GCC) located in Houston, Tex. Each station contains turbine/compressor units, with one station located onshore and the other station being an offshore facility. Included is a description of the system, the system functions and capabilities, and interrelationships between the stations and GCC. Advantages and disadvantages of the system are also discussed.

The paper analyzes the working principle and the advantages and disadvantages of synchronous access and asynchronous access in OPC standard. Take the traction motor performance test and control system as example. It used Visual Basic development OPC client and used PC Access as an OPC Server. The performance test bed for traction motor realize the measurement and control system efficient, stable and reliable operation. According to the characteristics of different parameters, the system chooses the methods of Subscription and Synchronous Write which used the advantages of synchronous access and asynchronous access.

Natural gas heaters are widely used in gas-fired power plants to meet the combustion needs and to improve the combustion efficiency. For the control features and technical requirements of the natural gas heater, the computer automatic control system for natural gas heater has been designed,and realizes the temperature and liquid level real time measurement and control. The system increases significantly the control accuracy of natural gas temperature, eliminates potential unsafety and improves production efficiency.
