Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The Beginning
In the beginning there was INtools and the known universe of Control Systems Engineering Automation revolved around itThis was good - but INtools only had limited interfaces and no integration to fulfill our Vision of a Data Centric environment
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The Vision
We looked into the INtools crystal ball and saw a Vision for the Future of Engineering Automation– The Import / Export capabilities of
INtools would give us the ability to interface with other software
We could Import data into INtools to complement the engineering data We could Export data to Excel and dBase for use on other programs
– But we still didn’t have real integration with other software or applications
We Wanted More!
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
INtools capabilities
Excerpts from a 1998 INtools PresentationINtools is a Microsoft Windows based Application and uses the standard Windows
Graphical User Interface.INtools uses ODBC compliant databases such as Oracle, MS-SQL and Sybase. INtools is more than an Engineering tool. It is also is the plant operations and
maintenance software used by Owner Operator companies. INtools has become the de facto standard for Control Systems Automation.INtools is being integrated with other Engineering Tools to create a data centric
engineering environment..INtools is integrated to other applications, such as Fisher Firstview valve sizing,
AutoCAD and Microsoft CAD systems.INtools is state of the art and supports new instrument concepts such as
Communications, Fieldbus and ISA compliant datasheets.
We Wanted More!
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The Vision Grows
When Intergraph purchased INtools in 1999 the Vision of a truly integrated Engineering Environment grew– Intergraph already had a development
plan for creating a SmartPlant Integrated suite of products
– They quickly included INtools in the SmartPlant Enterprise and SmartPlant Instrumentation – Powered by INtools was born
Now we had a promise for the future integration of Engineering Automation
We Wanted More!
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The Vision Grows
With Interfaces into SmartPlant P&ID and SmartPlant Electrical we saw the possibilities of other interfaces for EPC, Owner and Vendor Data. A vision of integration for SmartPlant Instrumentation became closer
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The SmartPlant Integration Manager
With the introduction of the SmartPlant Foundation a framework for real integration of SmartPlant Instrumentation becomes available
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The SmartPlant Integration Manager
On closer inspection we discover that the Integration for SmartPlant Instrumentation only includes a few specific data sets that can be published and retrieved for other SmartPlant Applications
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The SmartPlant P&ID Integration with SPI
Currently the P&ID Data published to the Foundation can only be correlated with the SPI Instrument Index and SPEL I/O Equipment List
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The SmartPlant Electrical Integration with SPI
Currently the SPEL Data published to the Foundation can only be correlated with the SPI Power and Cabinets data and SP3D cable data
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The SmartPlant 3D Integration with SPI
Currently the SmartPlant 3D can only retrieve SPI DDP Data Sheets through the SmartPlant Foundation Share Base
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The Future SmartPlant Integration Manager
As the SmartPlant Foundation integration management matures the number and quality of integrated data sets will improve including EPC, Owner Operator and Instrument Vendor data interfaces

SmartPlant Foundation
We also have the capability of creating SmartPlant Foundation TEF adaptors to interface EPC or Owner Operator software applications into the share base developing another layer of integration
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
There are a myriad of Vendor and System interfaces to SmartPlantInstrumentation that are developed but we still lack true integration
Vendor Data Integration
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
The Vision of Vendor Integration
Integrating Vendor Data– Consistent Spec Sheet Generation for Sizing and
Selection Control Valves and Instruments– SPI integration for Control System wiring I/O– SPI integration for DCS Configuration data– SPI integration for Plant Maintenance and
Operation SystemsVendor Integration Challenges – Using SmartPlant Instrumentation in As-Built,
work-sharing, multi-contractor environments– Lack of integration standards and consistent
methods of data definition and transfer – Problems with underutilization of SmartPlant

Control Valve Vendor Integration Functionality
Build Control Valve Tags and input process sizing and selection data into SPI using automation functions Create Control Valve Datasheets in SPI– Use SPI or Vendor valve sizing calculations – Use Vendor Valve Selection software– Import Manufacturer and Model Numbers from
Vendor Selection Software to SPI– Export DDP data to SP3D model
This Functionality should work the same for all Vendors and all Control Valve types We Want More!
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
Instrument Vendor Integration Functionality
Build all Instrument Tags and input process, sizing and selection data in SPI using automation functions Create Instrument Datasheets in SPI– Export to Vendor Sizing and Selection Software– Use Vendor sizing and selection of instruments– Import Manufacturer and Model Numbers into
SPI From Vendor Selection Software– Issue Purchase Orders and Construction
Hookup documents from SPI This Functionality should work the same for all Vendors across all Instrument types
We Want More!
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
Control Systems Vendor Integration Functionality
Users create the Field Wiring Network with I/O Loading in SPI – Import Vendor I/O Card Libraries into SPI– Connect devices and cables in SPI using the SPI
Wiring Explorer and Modules– Export SPI DCS I/O data to DCS Configuration
data to Vendor Configuration ProgramsOperation and Maintenance Owner Operator Functionality for Control Systems– Use the Vendor Configuration software and SPI
Wiring data to Configure and Maintain Process Control System
This Functionality should work the same for all Vendors across all Control System Types

Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
Issues with Vendor interfaces and Integration
When using SPI in As-Built, work-sharing or multi-contractor environment– The SPI Database can have limited access - adding complexity to the use of interfaces – Some SPI Functions do not work in the “EPC” and “Owner / Operator” As-Built Mode – Inconsistency in the capabilities of different pillars on a work share project
Suggestions to correct underutilization of SPI Vendor Interfaces– Remove the required special license key for each DCS interfaces and make all
Interfaces part of the standard add-ons for all licenses– Develop a standard DCS data exchange library that will work across multiple DCS
Vendors to import and export SPI data– The I/O Card Library import needs to be separated from the DCS Interface – Standardize the interfaces and data transfer so interfaces work the same from vendor
to vendor makes user training simpler– The magnitude of data fields on Spec forms are confusing use more man hours to
properly populate SpecsUse Interoperability Integration Standards when developing SPI Interfaces
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
Interoperability Standards Vision
While many of the Interface Standards work together and even complement each other, Others contradict or duplicate data transfer definitionsWhatever standards the Intergraph SmartPlant Foundation integration component of SmartPlant Enterprise adopt – will probably become the de-facto standard for other interfacesThe demand for Vendor Interfaces and Integration into Engineering Automation tools is growing and Intergraph is well positioned to take the lead in furnishing well designed and functional interfaces for some time to come

Interoperability Standards
The Process Engineering communities need to further coordinate efforts in areas critical to lifecycle information Interface and IntegrationCompanies like Intergraph, Fluor, Emerson and Bechtel are working together to utilize international data interface standards for interoperability Data Interoperability, Interface and Integration STANDARDS WARS
– NAMUR / Prolist NE-100 Interface Data Definition Interface Standard for engineering processes to build and maintain chemical plants
– ISO 15926 is a Cross Product Data Mapping Integration Standard for data exchange developments in the oil and gas industries
Additional Standards that may apply– eCl@ss has established a Product, Services and Materials Naming Code Standard in many European
market places and is integrating the German classifications (ETIM, Proficlass, …)– PIDX (Petroleum Industry Data Exchange) is the eCommerce Standard for using XML Data Integration as
a basis for procurement processes and data exchanges in oil and gas – ECCMA – (Electronic Commerce Code Management Association) developed a standard descriptive
language for Data Exchange Compliance Requirements and cataloging individuals, organizations, locations, goods and services
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
NAMUR / PROLIST NE-100 Standard
PROLIST NE-100 for engineering processes to build and maintain chemical plants using Lists of Properties (LOP) for data exchange – NE-100 Version 3.2 contains 107 LOP for:
Sensor Types (51)Interface Devices (37) Actuator Types (19) DCS/PLC I/O Types are in Development
XML Interface Data Definition Interface Standard
Global SmartPlant Instrumentation Users Forum 2011
ISO 15926 Integration Standard
ISO 15926 is the basis for many developments in oil and gas data exchange– Part 1 - Introduction, information concerning engineering, construction and operation
of production facilities is created, used and modified by many different organizations throughout a facility's lifetime. The purpose of ISO 15926 is to facilitate integration of data to support the lifecycle activities and processes of production facilities.
– Part 2 - Data Model. a generic 4D model that can support all disciplines, supply chain company types and life cycle stages, regarding information about functional requirements, physical solutions, types of objects and individual objects as well as activities.
– Parts 4,5,6 - Reference Data, the terms used within facilities for the process industry. – Part 7 - Implementation methods for the integration of distributed systems, defining
an implementation architecture that is based on the W3C Recommendations for the Semantic Web.
SmartPlant Foundation is the information management and integration component of SmartPlant Enterprise. The underlying Intergraph SmartPlant Foundation data model shares a common basis with ISO 15926 Part 2.
