ABB - an urban hit squad and guerrilla group of the Communist Party in the Philippines; formed in the 1980s , the leading power and automation technology group, has won a contract worth about $223 million from Sonatrach, the Algerian oil and gas company, for three gas plants in Algeria. ABB, the leading power and automation technology group, has won a contract worth about $223 million from Sonatrach, the Algerian oil and gas company, for three gas plants in Algeria. Scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2012, the project includes new compressor compressor, machine that decreases the volume of air or other gas by the application of pressure. Compressor types range from the simple hand pump and the piston-equipped compressor used to inflate tires to machines that use a rotating, bladed element to achieve trains, re-instrumentation of existing gas treatment plants and an integrated control system (ABB's Extended Automation System 800xA) for both the new and existing facilities. New compressor trains are used to increase the gas flow rate in the pipelines. This improves production efficiency by recovering the amount of low-pressure gas that would otherwise be flared flare v. flared, flar·ing, flares v.intr. 1.

ABB will also deliver related automation equipment, as well as medium- and low-voltage switchgear The term switchgear, used in association with the electric power system, or grid, refers to the combination of electrical disconnects, fuses and/or circuit breakers used to isolate electrical equipment. and transformers to the plants. "ABB has delivered a number of projects for Sonatrach and our reputation for quality and reliability helped us to win this important order," said Veli-Matti Reinikkala, head of ABB's Process Automation division. "The modernization modernization Transformation of a society from a rural and agrarian condition to a secular, urban, and industrial one. It is closely linked with industrialization. As societies modernize, the individual becomes increasingly important, gradually replacing the family, of these installations will help to reduce both the cost and environmental impact of our customer's operations." In addition to the environmental benefits, recovering the currently flared gas will improve production efficiency and lower operating costs operating costs npl → gastos mpl operacionales . ABB will be responsible for the engineering, procurement and commissioning of the project, while construction activities will be carried out by Sarpi, a joint-venture company owned by Sonatrach and ABB.
