MADRID, Spain, Nov. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Telvent GIT S.A.
(Nasdaq: TLVT), the Global RealTime IT Company, today announced that it has
been awarded a $1.3 million contract with the City of Columbus, Ohio, to
upgrade the existing control system for the treatment and distribution at its
Dublin Road Water Plant. Telvent will upgrade the existing SAGE and OASyS 5.2
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems to OASyS 6.3UX to
optimize the yield of the plant.
According to Telvent's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Manuel
Sanchez Ortega, "This contract highlights the strength of Telvent's installed
base. This project is Telvent's third with the City of Columbus' Water
Division in the last three years and we are very proud of our strong, ongoing
relationship with the City."
Telvent was chosen for the project, following an open bid process, based
on its recent successful upgrades at the City's Hap Cremean Water Plant and
its distribution network. As a result of the new Telvent system, the Dublin
Road Plant will benefit from, among other things, enhanced security, remote
access capability, enhanced trending and a distributed architecture system
design, which allows circular system definitions. In addition to the new OASyS
system, Telvent will also provide a Decision Support Server (DSS) and @WEB
capabilities to the City.
The City of Columbus's Division of Water is comprised of three independent
water supply and treatment plants and one distribution network, all of which
are currently running Telvent control and automation management systems of
various vintages. Combined, the City's water supply and distribution system
consists of 3300 miles of waterline and provides over 130,000,000 gallons of
water per day for more than 1,000,000 people living and working in the Central
Ohio area.
Telvent (Nasdaq: TLVT), the Global RealTime IT Company, is specialized in
high value-added solutions for four specific industrial sectors (Energy,
Traffic, Transport and Environment) in Europe, North America, Latin America
and China. (http://www.telvent.com).
