§ 26-262. Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) plan.
Latest version.
A supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) plan shall be required and shall
outline how data from the well site will be continuously collected in a real-time
manner and how this data is monitored. Data shall be collected at every stage of the
oil or gas drilling and production process. The plan shall address how the SCADA system
will control factors such as leakage, fire, emergency shut-down, oil or gas flow rate
and accumulated flow, line pressure, detection and control, well-head pressure, pump
status, tank level and other critical factors defined by the city. In addition, the
plan should define the equipment, sensors, hardware, communication interfaces (radio,
wire, fiber optic and microwave) and electro-mechanical devices that will be employed
and how these devices will function during an emergency situation.
